So yes, been spraying and they are back AGAIn... this grow has been nothing but issues since day 1... I am erasing this grow, taking the loss and restarting from SCRATCH... Question is, can i reuse the coco?? What steps should i take to ensure no passing of aphids?? I am letting my grow room freeze out for the next week but also want to be sure they are dead and gone.

Scrub/spray the area, buy higher quality coir. Re-using, recycling will reintroduce aphids. Those buggers like to procreate at an alarming speed.

Figured after leaving the coir in freezing temps for the weeks and hitting with h202 that it'd be well enough... as for quality of coir, had nothing to do with coir purchased, they got tracked in and yeah.
