It's not 45 minutes of prep, you're still talking as if you're ~~scrubbing~~ working on it the whole time. IF you have the option before you need it, you go stick it in the solution. And you don't need to sit there staring at it, you go do something else, you prep something else, again IF you have option before you need it.

And it's not 45 minutes or bust, the longer it goes the more you get. The first study mentioned was based on 20 minutes. These are diminishing returns with time, so I expect 10-15 minutes will get you a ton.

Your advice is plan it out so that you’ve got a high PH solution that you leave your veggies in for 45 minutes before use.

And to address your strawman, which I thought the options were so blindingly obvious that I didn't bother stating: If you don't have that planning option, yes you can scrub the hell out of it but know that will get off far, far, far less. That was the whole point.

You are the one that won't admit that you are wrong when the data is right there. You have to change it to you don't have time and strawmans. Inb4 your next round, you can say I overspoke in my first comment, more accurately: "They’ve studied that and it doesn’t get rid of [much/most] pesticides." Why do I bother with such bad faith. Ciao.
