Pomass, i use a 4 bucket wash.
4 x 5gal food grade buckets. The orange ones from depoe is food grade
1st and last are plain water. I use slightly warm in 1st. Cool -cold water in 4th
2nd bucket gets 1 cup lemon juice. Bottled is great. Filled to 2" from top with warm 75+ degrees F
3rd bucket gets 1 cup baking Soda. Aka as sodium bicarbonate dissolved in slightly cooler temp as lemon juice bucket.
Dunk cut and initial trimmed branches for 15 times up and down. Let drain slightly before proceeding to next.
Place hanging to drip over sink or wherever you won't get yelled at.
Dry according to your choice.
hey ziggy. it looks like u seperated the baking soda from lemon juice. i wanted to point out to you, that lemon juice and baking soda work together hand in hand. try putting a spoon of baking soda in a cup, then pour lemon juice on it and watch what happens. its activates the cleaning power of teh baking soda. theres alot of DIY cleaning products that work with lemon juice (or vinegar) and baking soda together. im not sure if ur getting teh full benifit when u use them seperately the way that you wrote in two differnt buckets
