Plastic Weed?

[Maxim_Storm]

Can anyone tell me the best way to clean plastic plants/weeds?

Take them out, run them under a tap and scrub them with a dish scrubber.....simple!!!

Thanks for that Hun tried it and it gets them reasonably clean but they also tend to fall apart. I wondered if anyone had found any magical way of cleaning them e.g washing machine.

I found that i needed to let them soak in very hot water for a while when they were really algae covered

I do it with a tooth brush.

If you are referring to cleaning algae off them, I just use my fingernail under running water.

Hey Maxim, try all the hints , the tootbrush one sounds good, but soaking them may also do it. I dont clean mine fully as i need to leave a bit of algae for my ottos.

I use the Interpet plastic plant cleaner...

Thanks guys I'll have a go, I asked as I thought I remembered someone saying that you could stick them in the washing machine

When I read the title I thought someone was going to ask if you can make put roll up weed in some plastic.
