H202 and algae advice please

Alrighty. So, obviously I've acquired some of that slimey junk and I wondered hmm, are my plants old enough for some diluted h202? Or will it just hurt them worse. I've tried a 9 part water 1 part milk solution two days ago, it kinda worked. Should i just continue doing that? Also, do they recover at least almost fully? And about how long should I expect it to take for the plants to overpower the mold?

If you want my advice, don't use H2O2 except maybe for a quick wash, and certainly never use milk (or anything else organic). Brew some mocrobe tea, and you should be fine.

hydrogen peroxide . use 1 tbls per gal of water with your res..water temps are high that's a big contributor to slime.. run a good flush with it for a few hrs then ack to reg nutes and water.

I'll definitely do the tea tomorrow. It sounds insanely good for them. I think I'm going to stick to spritzing the roots with h2o2 but the high res temps is a great point. I guarantee I messed that up. Thank you both so much!!

Edit: jk I'll probably do the h2o2 flush also tomorrow since it's nute day anyway. How many hours would you say?

Just never use H2O2 AND tea as one will destroy the other.

Thanks for the warning probably saved me.

ya, h2o2 will kill ur bennies too, so you'll have to re-apply.

Bro why the fuck do have milk and tea in the res??? Now i have heard it all, whats next scones and jam
To avoid pathogens in th res use H202 50% grade at 1000:1 in the res every 4 days. 35% grade 750:1 etc. OR buy a chiller and keep the temp at 62.
Very important to keep this under control.
