It's a long and unfortunate story, but my idiot roommate was doing an idiot project in the basement involving a belt sander and spanning three or four days. The basement is fully covered in sawdust and, since he was doing this two feet away from my grow room, enough sawdust came in through the airholes to cover the plants and every surface with a thin coating.
What do I do? My plants are five weeks into flowering and covered with trichomes, so I'm thinking dousing them with water is going to do more harm than good at this point. Besides that, I'm running a hydro system and I'm thinking that the sawdust is gonna runoff into the roots and res, and cause more problems. I've also heard mixed things about using canned air to blow the dust off--the cold temp and the nitrogen might hurt the ladies, and I'm wondering whether a lot of the dust isn't trapped in the sticky trichomes and buds.
The only solution I'm seeing is to watercure, which is gonna kill my final weight, but I'm hoping it'll get rid of most of the sawdust over a week?
Any advice, here? I'm not willing to throw this crop away so far along, but I'm not sure how to get the best harvest despite this bullshit.
Thanks!
