How do you guys clean your foliage in DWC?

Quick question for the boards.

How do you guys go about cleaning your plants? I run a DWC setup and had to make some changes in my sealed room that included cutting out some drywall. Although, I did stop all fans and turn the AC down to prevent the shit going everywhere it did. I also covered my plants with a sheet. I still managed to get some of the gypsum on the leaves of my plants. I did hit them with a fan to get most of it off but I am sure there is still some there.

I don't really want to take them outside and spray them lest, I risk outside infestation. I'm just trying to get some ideas on the best way to remove the gypsum from the leaves that I can't see. I considered, wiping the plants down with a clean, wet rag but imagine that their has to be a more efficient way to clean dirty plants. I would rather not smoke gypsum, so let me hear your methods.

i guess you could put them in the shower to rinse them off or just use a spray bottle and let it drip on floor

I dont think theres any secret method to quickly cleaning up your plants. imo your best bet is to mist them, then wipe em down with a rag

Thanks guys. I forgot to mention that these plants are in flower and was wondering if there would be any ill effect to thrichs by wiping them or showering them, etc?

Wiping flowering buds may cause trich rupture if the plant is producing. Not the end of the world, but why not avoid it, right?

If it was me, I wouldn't do anything. But if it's driving you nuts, give it a good misting at lights off.

Gotta say this bro, between all your posts I've answered recently, I gotta say, "Calm down dude" Hit a bowl, and ponder this - 'Why do we call it weed?'

You've got the equipment, hell, you've got better equipment than most of us. You just tweak your airflow a bit, per the other thread, and let the plant do its thing. Its done this for millenia without human interference, just get out of its way

My prescription: Move your fan, go outside and smoke a hogleg j with a bit of Buffet in the background on your deck/patio/porch/patch/window
