NO do not buy store bought H2O2 3% variety it has additives that will KILL your plants.
The type you want is 35% sold at discounthydro.com (you might have to call). But you will be diluting it to 1 tsp per gallon to make 3% for your solution.

I suggest when you call discount hydro you ask them. 3% sold by drug stores is an absolte no no. Everybody has friend of friends that do things. Look at my link to my grow room below. Notice the h2o2 (add 1 tsp per gallon of solution) I am using and look at my plants. Or you can take friend of a friend advice, your choice.

no I will take my best friend's advice as well as two other ones because they are not telling me bullshit just to sell me something. Fyi, my best friend grows some of the best weed I have ever seen/smoked- crystals out the ying yang and great yields. You obviously just prefer to take advice of a complete stranger trying to make a buck from you.
3% will NOT kill your plants. It is quite possible it is not effective as the 35% h2o2, but the fact remains that it will still work if he was unable to get the 35%

Read this article from someone not trying to sell you something. And the advice was for the person posting the question

For sapry it may be ok but not for roots. Man made (3%)h2o2 has stableizers added to it. Read the article in my above post

dude your article says nothing that isn't common knowledge you are knocking something without any idea what you are talking about. It kind of reminds me of those commercials from espn where the guy is talking out of his asshole. In my previous post I mentioned that 35% is more friendly to cannabis when diluted to the cannabis plant but 3% does work as well.
As I stated before I PERSONALLY have witnessed three growers using it successfully, one switched to 35% because he said it was less maintenance- but it worked just fine for him without damaging his plants at the standard walmart grade hydrogen peroxide.
Now, all that said I agree 35% is MORE effective because of the less maintenance that would be required and as an economist also value my time. I did order 35% for my operation, just because I wanted less of a hassle and have read similar experiences to that of my friend that switched.
If you want keep talking out of your asshole as it is amusing to me.

fdd, ever watched Penn & Teller: Bullshit ?
Cloudflyer, if 3% was used very diluted, would the benefits outweigh the risks in RDWC? What harm do these stabilizers do to the plants?

You have to mix the 35% to 3%. The 35% is too strong. (don't get it on your skin) this below should answer your question
Most commercial grades of H2O2 contain chelants and sequestrants which minimize its decomposition under normal storage and handling conditions. In some applications (e.g., copper etching or cosmetic formulations) a high degree of stabilization is needed; whereas, in others (e.g., drinking water treatment, semiconductor manufacture,Agriculture, and Horticulture ) product purity is more important. The types of stabilizers used in H2O2 vary between producers and product grades. Colloidal stannate and sodium pyrophosphate (present at 25 - 250 mg/L) are the traditional mainstays, although organophosphonates (e.g., Monsantos Dequest products) are increasingly common. Other additives may include nitrate (for pH adjustment and corrosion inhibition) and phosphoric acid (for pH adjustment). Certain end-uses -- which depend on the bleaching ability of H2O2 in alkali utilize colloidal silicate to sequester metals and thereby minimize H2O2 decomposition.

Thanks cloudflyer. I wish I understood half of what I just read, but with words that big I'll just accept it 
Well thanks for everyones comments. Im going to check around for hydro stores.
Your friends may have used it and it may have still grown the plants, but they could of very easily not been able to see what it could be doing to the plants. Alot of people would not notice if it stunted the plants growth a little or made it have a different taste. As long as that plant came out ok, they would be saying that the walmart brand works great. Figured I would ask and get everyones opinoin.

nah dude fuck you
it is one thing to ask questions, but you should atleast do people the courtesy of trying to search for it or atleast not lie and say you have been scrounging the depths of the world to find it.
A quick google products search brings up 946 results for hydrogen peroxide and 67 for h2o2- you are lazy.
I did answer the question how you stated it. You CAN IN FACT FIND hydrogen peroxide at your local drug store. Next time ask your question clearly and you might get a clear answer.
until then you can chew on my gooch hairs

ps: a quick perusal of your grow journal I could improve your yield and health of your plants x 5 but since you don't like advice I won't be friendly and give it to you
