Jeyes! It does exactly what it says on the tin. Bleach seems a bit too much for me.

To get rid the really nasty nasties, I find a woman is the most effective.

Pesky Wabbit, go stand in the corner and wait for the dogs..... :-[

Jeyes is an OK for pots. First wash and rinse in water, then a dunk in a Jeyes solution. Let them air dry.

Better yet. Make paper pots!

I confess I am a slob and do not wash my pots at all...... :-[
If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

I prefer bleach I don't like the oily film jeyes leaves on the surface.

But that is only a personal fad I would use either before I would use none.

I also like to get them done fairly early in the season so the bleach/jeyes gets to work prior to using the pots/trays.

I find it a good January job.

I use a mixture of washing up liquid and vinegar
