Soooo i know that H2o2 is a godsend i use it quite often. now i have a question. I'm pretty much running a drain to waste hydro I'm just the pump. i water by hand with sunshine advanced mix 4.

now out of necessity I've had to use H2o2 in the past but I've found a couple really nice tricks with it and i would like to know if I'm in any danger.

Nifty use #1

Well today in fact i was mixing nutes and i looked in my veg area and one of my plants looked all wilted. i just watered one right next to it that was bone dry so i just automatically assumed "must be dry!" Well i grabbed my pitcher and just grabbed a half gallon of water (i usually give a little water before i give nutes if i let them dry out too much) and dumped it on her. well i went about the rest of my chores and then i looked over and noticed she was still very wilted even worse in fact. i checked he up close and realized she was over watered and i just watered her some more...... .SHIT.

well the only thing i could think to do was Water her some more..... with H2o2 of course. i figured "what is your plant lacking when its over watered?" o2!! and what does H2o2 produce? o2! so i gave her a healthy dose and sure enough within 10 minutes she was STRETCHING for the light. when i watered her with the H2o2 she pretty much drained all over the place and i basically flushed her out really good, about a gallon of run off.


Nifty use #2

Well in flower is where i first found out about H2o2's magical properties. but now i got a new trick that is working out to cleaner buds for me. i don't run super soil or any kind of all living no salt soil. i run a top dress program with like 400-600 ppm organic based hydro nutes every watering. well heres the nifty trick. i water every other day and my plants usually want more nutrients. so i water 3 times to make sure all the top dress gets dissolved in and then i hit them with a heavy flush with H2o2 the next day. let them dry out for 2-3 days usually just 2 and then top dress again and go through it all again. it gets me a flush a week usually sometimes quicker depending on how much they are drinking. the plants seem to love it they are some of the healthiest ones I've ever grown.


soo any danger in repeated H2o2 exposure?

I use H2O2 every couple weeks when I water. I started using it for fungus gnats and I noticed the plants reaching for the sky, praying shortly after I applied it. It really aerates the soil also. it kinda foams and my soil is always so light and fluffy after an application. I use the standard 3% solution and mix 4/1 water/H2O2. I know that since I started doing this, it hasn't hurt anything, and my plants in the veg tent are growing faster and healthier than previous months. I don't know if that's because I was battling fungus gnats before, or the peroxide regimen.
Either way, the H2O2 is dirt cheap and it definetly fixed the fungus gnat problem.
I am continuing to add H2O2 every couple weeks and the plants really do seem to love it.
I was doing some research and found that many nurseries and proffessional gardeners, use peroxide regularly in their watering and feeding schedules. I started a thread a couple months back about peroxide for fungus gnats, and that's when I learned of the benefits of using H2O2.
Great applied science KGK420, with oxygen being released to your roots it perked that sad baby right up.

Oh and to answer your question about repeated use, I have applied it around four times in the past 6 weeks or so and things are healthy!
