" They are both a
hydrogen peroxide-based
solution, so [products] require
a specific sprayer or injector as the
peracetic acid can eat away at the o-rings, "
Adams said. " Sanidate cannot touch plant material, so
if the house has anything in it that was fall planted for
spring bloom, you must use Oxidate instead. "
Growers should always read the label to check for a
product's effectiveness on certain surfaces.
EQUIPMENT MATTERS
While many growers use fairly simple equipment
such as pressure washers, brushes and brooms to
clean between crop cycles, edible crop greenhouses
tend to have more rigid sanitation protocols than
ornamental crop growers due to biosecurity and
utilize sprayers, foggers and UV-C lights.
Sunny Meadows Flower Farm utilizes a Dosatron
injector, with Adams noting it can handle the
peracetic acid, while a backpack sprayer is used
for smaller applications.

" When I see a broken link in someone's
sanitation program, it's usually because
there's this all-or-nothing approach, "
she said. " A hose and soap and a
spray down with a sanitizer is an
excellent place to start. "
TIPS FOR SUCCESS
One of the benefits of maintaining
a proper sanitation program is
growers can expect better plant
health and increased yield. Additionally,
since insects, diseases and viruses live
on discarded plant material, weeds and on
dirty surfaces, growers should expect less pest
problems in the next crop if the greenhouses are
cleaned and sanitized prior to a new crop.
For those looking to improve sanitation in the greenhouse,
Lindberg recommends trying to be as thorough as possible
and consider high-touch surfaces and frequently-used
equipment as well.
