I know a lot of breeders want to protect and keep their demon seedlings healtly and safe from nasty germs, but in the long run the use of anti-bacterial products will allow super bacteria to kill us all. Science doesn't lie.
Stop using those anti-bacterial products and go back to warm soapy water and little elbow grease. Humanity has made it this far without anti-bacterial products. We can continue on, but only if we all do are part.
I've been saying this for years. Overuse of antibiotics and anti-bacterial agents only breeds stronger bacteria. And your immune system needs weak bacteria around to beat up on for practice.

Posted by: Nicky on June 25, 2007 06:39 PMThanks to the article you linked to I finally understand what is actually wrong with using so-called "anti-bacterial" soaps. I've been hearing this for years, but I didn't understand what the problem was as I thought regular soap killed germs too! But now I understand and it makes sense. No wonder all our illnesses are getting "worse." Thanks for the info!
