between grows and ...

I had some late hermies pop out that resulted in a few seeds but nothing serious, any suggestions about how thorough I might want to be to clean things in the grow room before I start another? It's hydroponic with a scrog net and frame, so there's hoses and cords and stuff all over ... I'm thinking a real good vacuuming?

after you've vacuumed
you should use one of those cleaning things that use static to grab stuff
the best advise would be to clean everything thoroughly, but if you're not up to that some fancy dusting glove, pad, brush etc might catch some extra residue
the pollen is microscopic, that's the prob, and the fans make the air circulate and stir shit up
so, i cant really advise short cuts in this case

^Yes, do it right the first time, or you will may be faced with a much larger problem in the future.

Thanks so much for the advice. Yes, I decided the thorough was the way to go. Everything feels so much better for it now thanks again. I will cruise through later and see if there's any questions I might know to help repay the favor.

TBH I don`t think pollen will stay viable for very long, you shouldn`t have any issues there.
But it`s a good idea to clean everything anyway as this will help reduce the chance of disease, mould, fungus or pests.

Hey, what does TBH mean?
