How can I best clean my deck?

I will be doing this without a pressure washer and would like to use something non-toxic if possible.


Answer
Buy one of those large boxes of Arm&Hammer baking soda, and a large bottle of vinegar (how much depends on how big your deck is).
Wet your deck down with the hose and then sprinkle the baking soda all over.
You can just sprinkle the vinegar around out the bottle or you can get a spray bottle and spray it around, it should "foam" up when it hits the baking soda. Let that sit for a few min.
Then take a broom ( I recommend a push broom) and scrub it into the wood.
Rinse off with the hose and let dry!

The Baking Soda serves as a soft abrasive and cleaner, and the vinegar serves as the "acid" to "eat up" the dirt.
I'm glad to hear that someone cares about the toxins and the outdoors, thank-you!

I do not have a pressure washer.


Answer
If your trying to do it yourself and save money, there are places that rent those power washers, we used to have one and it cleaned everything from the masonry to zapping the grime from the concrete of the driveway. I've seen a few people use something like those "brooms" that soap up, similar to the ones at those car washes. They hook up to the garden hose, and I think a lot depends on the solution you use, and what you're trying to clean.
