Think about it!! Rot is bacteria eating.. the more oxygen the faster they eat.. simple biology!

After seeing what is in city water.. I didn't feel to bad about the 50 ppms I needed for cloning.. roots in 4-5days..
I knew you were looking for another solution.. h2o2 works great as long as your rez temps are good..

you use 50 ppm chlorine when you're cloning?

Don't quote me on any numbers.. if it's way off..I'm way off!.. I know I used about a 1/4 of what the reciipe called for
and it did the trick.. that was about five years ago...
Now I have a well with a green sand uv filter so no more bacteria..

Please forgive my ignorance, but wouldn't hygrozyme help prevent stem rot?
I use it to prevent contamination in my clone dome and anytime I have root "issues".
The biggest problem with stem rot is that the damage cannot be reversed. You can slow it down or stop it completely, but that part of the plant will never be the same.
As usual, prevention is the key...

Actually I checked my old computer and found my cloning notes... I used 0.5 ppm not 50 ppm...
Just a little bit different! Lol ...I knew it didn't sound right when I wrote it... oh well

H2o2 is peroxide the h202 brand is very strong . and should be diluted first . to much and it will kill roots and plants. H2O2 reacts to organics.

h202 releases its extra oxygen compound when theres something with a stronger bond to offer it. oxygen is THE best oxidizer, period (go figure) so it will kill whatever it bonds to, but once its used up, its just water and a few free oxygen molecules, so you need to keep adding it. 10 ml per gallon and it will be gone within 24-36 hours
