How bad would it be if I did not give my greenhouse a thorough wash out with Jayes fluid, this year?
I have been so busy due to my daughter being poorly that I haven't got the energy to clean it out. I need to get some seeds in and thought I might just get away with it??????
i never wash mine just put the jayes in a pressure sprayer and just spray all the staging and glass and the paths and boarders, dont get much of a problem with algae or other probs so it think it works for me.
Oh, don't you need to wash it off then? I have always had problems getting water as it is before the allotment tap is turned on. I usually end up with Jayes in y eyes and drenched from head to foot. No wonder I thought the job was hard work!!!!!
i never wash it off it looks like a wee bit of shading on the glass and i take the thought that if its still on it might still be working
Might try that next year, spent a couple of hours cleaning my greenhouses yesterday.
I do similar to Dave but I don't use Jeyes I use Armillatox.
Last year this was a fungicide now it has been re-classified as a cleaner/detergent.
I spray it on to the algae covered glass and leave it for a few hours or even to the next day.
Then I blast it with the hose and the dead algae washes off ( well mostly) sometimes I have to use a bit of elbow grease or a broom I have for sweeping the floor of my greenhouse.
I double up with the armillatox which smells the same as jeyes by using it as a club root and rootfly deterrant ( its original use).
So one product numerous jobs so justifies its extra expense.
A litle usually does me about three seasons.
