    Default H2O2 - Will it help clean my plants?

    I heard h2o2 works because it has an unstable molecule that will run off and destroy stuff like powdery mildew etc. I just underwent a bout with spider mites which ended with an easy fix (Hot Shot No pest strips FTW) but I sprayed my ladies with a good amount of pesticide.

    Will h202 help clean that shit off? Im like 5 days in to flower here, no buds.

    H2O2 as a foliar? Please don't. Its an oxidizer.
    (Its also not good to use in the water for soil plants. Its used in hydro to keep pathogens down. but soil wants the helpful microbes)

    Like BBB said don't foliar with H202. It does have an extra oxygen molecule that breaks of but it breaks down everything, good and bad. Just use reverse osmosis water to clean the plants of.

    I've been looking into this and I hear you should add 1.5ml of h202, per gallon into your res. and make sure not to add any nutrients for 30 min.
