I spray used pots/cups/pans/etc with Clorox (or Lysol with bleach) disinfectant but for new pots/pans/cups I use them as they are. Perlite I never treat and although I have seen algae growing in some potting mixes I don't treat that either. I typically have good results just dabbling. A lot of times I just push leaves into neighboring pots where most times they root. My philosophy is if it roots then that is good and if it doesn't that is okay too. Once I have at least two of the same plant then I really don't need more (unless it is something I really like in which case I might have four clones of it).

Yep, a commercial greenhouse can grow some big plants in no time.
