Powder mold on outside of grow tent

Just pulled my tent out of storage and about 30% of it is covered in mold. I used a drill brush outside to knock off any loose spores and then used 1 part water and 1 part vinegar to spray the rest. My question is is there anything else I should do to treat the mold before I start growing again?

Agreed. The cost of a new tent is easier to deal with as opposed to an entire crop possibly going to shit. For me, at least.

i agree, you can never get rid of all the particals of mp from the tent and new ones are made of better material these days

I would junk it and buy a new tent. PM taking over a grow is heartbreaking.

Pics?

No pics of mold. The tent appears mold free. Inside was mold free but washed it out with H202 as I do after every grow. Thanks for the response

I thought about getting a knew tent anyways. I like the gorilla tents and would like a little more size. I have a 3x3x5 now. And I’d like a 4x4x7. Looks like I’ve got a good excuse to upgrade

i would start another thread about the tent as many growers who read the tital may not read the post and not realise theres a great question in there, you will get much better replys at least and gain a better idea od what to look for

The gorilla tents I've seen don’t have a 1 piece door/zip arrangement, that would be deal breaker for me, I wouldn't consider anything with multiple zips to fuck around with everytime I'm going into the tent.

There's lots of cracking mid priced tents available, my favourites are the bloom room, bud box and the green room.

I've had two Black Box tents for 2 years, they're bargain basement tents with thin fabric but they've both been holding up well.

If you can’t get a new tent then there is spray that kills mold spores. I would drench every inch of it with that spray that probably pressure wash it clean. If you don’t have a pressure washer, bring it to a local donut yourself car wash.
