 Refresh So I've settled in a a routine. To reiterate, on top of the documented process, I have added cleaning the system with dilute sprayed h202 and a 2 inch round brush.  This was recommended by users on facebook to avoid a deep clean in 6 months and only adds 15 minutes.  (The number of groups has grown as individuals have started thier own groups. oy.)

It was very wierd not having gardyn lighting my house from the entryway. It did make me question what happens when daylight savings hits in a week.
