Hi, I think i have tobacco mosaic virus. I'm tossing the plant and want to sterilize anything that came into contact with it. I have a blue lab ppm pen and want to sterilize it. It came into contact with the DWC water and my hands which touched the leaves. What chemicals should i use. What will damage the pen. will a dishwasher do the trick, do i have to add anything other than dishwasher detergent(bleach, h2o2...)

Also what would be the recommended sterilization of any thing else. floor of tent, dwc res etc.

I would obviously throw out anything like net pot, dropper ph kit but want to keep the expensive stuff. Thanks for the help community.
 
TMV has never been verified in cannabis by accredited institutions so likely broad mite damage or a variegated strain.
 
Use 90%+ alcohol to sterilize evening but the pens, only because idk if it will hurt the probe. No reason to toss everything. Use a spray bottle, soak everything down with the alcohol, let it dry, spray it again then rinse under HOT water.
