Does dishwasher disinfect pots? Female
Default Does dishwasher disinfect pots?

Looking for opinions on washing plastic pots in dishwasher. Will this kill any pests/ disease/ viruses so that the pot can be used again for repotting of new plants? I'm a window-sill grower and have done this in the past thinking the dishwasher's hot water and heated dry cycle should kill anything that might have been in pot. But is this a dangerous practice that leaves new plants susceptible to possible infestations/ transmissions?

What about enamel-coated clay pots? How are they best handled?

What are best practices for re-using pots?

Thanks!
