Hi, I’ve been reading up on what could give more oxygen to roots and most of my sources lead me to peroxide. So does anyone have any information on if it can actually kill pest, promote root growth, etc?
Kill pest - for certain. I use H2O2 for Powdery Mildew & bugs during flowerHi, I’ve been reading up on what could give more oxygen to roots and most of my sources lead me to peroxide. So does anyone have any information on if it can actually kill pest, promote root growth, etc?
I run 3ml/gallon of 35% h202 in hydroponic reservoirs for sterility when root issues present themselves. It's highly effective. If you are running organic soil it is an absolute last resort. It will kill your beneficial bacteria along with the bad bacteria. There are much cheaper options for sterility. Southern AG's biological friendly fungicide @1ml/10 gallons of solution. It is highly concentrated. Same product as hydrogaurd, but much cheaper and more concentrated. Generally speaking h202 is only useful when you have root problems. I had a bucket that began to stink. Bad bacteria some how took hold which is rare in my garden. I then mixed up a 32 gallon res of fertilizer with 3ml/gallon of 35% h202 applied. Cleared up the root issue and smell by the 2nd day after 2 water cycles. Wear gloves if you're handling it. It will bleach your skin and chemically burn you. Goggles are not a bad idea either. Quick easy way to blind yourself if you're the clumsy unsafe type. I love mixing up 10% solutions of the 35% for general cleaning. I use it in the bathroom frequently. I hate the smell of bleach. 35% h202 diluted down to a 10% solution makes a cleaner stronger than bleach. Love keeping a good stock of h202 around the house, but I can only find the 34% recently.Hi, I’ve been reading up on what could give more oxygen to roots and most of my sources lead me to peroxide.
