Sorry, I guess that assumes you need a serious sanitation cleaning. If you're looking for a very mild sanitizing solution just for everyday cleaning, 1 Tablespoon to a gallon will get you a good 100-200 ppm.

Vinegar
Sulfur burn
Can be helpful.

run your extraction fan constantly, and turn your circulation fans up if you're worried. but at the rates @Harvest76 suggests, just be careful you don't get it on your plants.
@TintEastwood is also right that Vinegar can be substituted, but you should be careful not to get that on your plants, too.

Why do you feel the need to bleach your room mid flower?

I like to keep the floors clean as a prevention for bugs and mold. Im thinking bleach is the best option if it doesn't affect the bud.

Plants out, electrical out. Pump sprayer 20% bleach with just a tiny drop of Dawn. Spray it all down. Hose it down n vacum the floor wet/dry vac after scrubbing floor with deck brush. A mop will shine it up & i go over the walls with a wet, water towel , bucket to dip next to me. No bleach smell after some fan time.
Next::: uh-oh, yup, run a O-Zone generator in the room sealed for 24 hrs (uless small tent). That will kill any spores in your machines & provide a sanitary room.

Towel scrub walls quick with the bleach that's sprayed in there. Then second phase using clean water.
Run your exhaust while working bleach .
If you mix it to the house wash mix instructions then you'll be golden for mold spores & everything just hitvwith water. I hose mine down.
This is why i dont run perpetual.

In that case, if you're just looking for a cleaner and cant move the plants, use 1 tbsp per gallon, and a dampened rag to wipe down the floors and walls being careful not to spray or drip on the plants. It will be just fine, but vinegar works well too.

Yessir. But for real though. Clear REZ n shit like that smells like a bleach substitute. Quite a few in use potts get either peroxide, dishliquid , Pool cleaner or light bleach.
No biggi. Id mix thsr shits as it says for cleaning houses. As a contractor doing these jobs, i found it was important to use the directed amount. Otherwise the smell is to strong & the house will get bleach streaks. Takes off all mold tho. Anything less will only spread the m9kd around, breaking it into smaller spores so it can then travel farther & deeper.
Whats your room size?
Say a 10x10 basic small bdrm ok. If finished floors then i would buy a white roll of rubber-roofing & have it go 2-3" up the wall to create a pan. Now you can scrub your room properly.
Personally, i refuse to set one veg plant in the flower room unless its completely douched.
How about a plastic drop divider to do o e side at a time?

Here you go OP
I clean all fans before going back in too. If your leds are actively cooled, its a good idea to blow them out outside once every 3grows or so too. Shit buikds up in there & we never know if it will hit the plants. Thats why i recommend a small Ozone generator to back up your hand cleaning.

Shit, i didnt know that. If you do not have pm as of now or last grow then any all purpse cleaner will work fine.
Damn, i thought yiu were cleaning a room. Between grows. My bad.
That Clorox formula is still the only one id use because it kills everything at that rate. Good luck!
