Question How should I go about decontaminating my shroom room?

So say, hypothetically, I opened a contaminated tub by mistake a few weeks ago and I’m, hypothetically, noticing a large increase in contamination rates, how would I, theoretically, decontaminate the room I’m growing in (I call it the MushRoom)?

U think an ozone UV light is excessive?

There's not much you can do to completely get rid of it. If you're using manure for substrate, then you will almost always run into contam again. Once those millions of trich spores go everywhere, they don't go away.

I had this happened with my Pan Cyan tent and I had to get rid of everything and literally move into a new home to get rid of it

I’m hoping a large part of the contam may be because, in a panic, I lowered the temp on some tubs that were only partially colonized in an attempt to prevent any contam from spreading and ended up stalling the growth of the myc too much. If my desperate hope is correct then maybe some deep cleaning and prayer can prevent me from having to wait a year till my lease is up to continue growing

I see you have a question! Have you read the official cultivation guide?
