also can you use it with nute's
i have read ppl saying its ok and other threads saying you get nute lock?

Why not just use 8 drops of bleach per gallon of water? Keep adding it every gallon of water you add This will kill the root rot you have been tring to get rid of for weeks now. Also when you clean you cloner out use bleach water.
When I worked in a green house when I was in high school we used bleach for every thing and we never had a root rot problem. Bleach will evaporate over the course of a week.

I have never been able to taste the difference of buds treated with bleach vs. not

Instructions:
8-drops per gallon
1-drop per day added to system (it will evaporate at this rate)
Clean system with bleach water in a spray bottle, spray system down let it sit until dry then respray system down and scrub with a mild soap and the rise out. Spray with bleach again and rinse out with warm water while rubbing it down with a sponge or your hand.
After the roots are health again you can stop using bleach or keep using it as a preventive measure. You will have to stop using it if you start using Prozyme, Hydrozyme, Voodoo Juice, or any other Zyme because the bleach will kill the good bugs also.

Ok. I live in the US but i also speak metrics. I actaully use a 2 liter bottle to measure my watering and nutes.

For 2 liters, i add 2 capfuls of H2O2. I give it a good shake and let it sit for about 2 minutes. I then dump it into my soil.

3% hydrogen peroxide, without further dilution, will kill bacteria, benificial and not. BUT, since you are diluting it even further, it wont hurt any bacteria, and the beneficial bacteria will enjoy the extra oxygen it gets when the H2O2 breaks down. Beneficial bacteria kills the bad stuff and makes minerals and nutes available to the plants roots.

For 3% the recomendation is 15-20 mL of H202 to a gallon of water,
if it is the 27-33% h202 it is recommended at 2-3 mL per gallon.

H202 is very necessary for aero cloners, and recirculated Hydroponics
systems, not only does it increase air throughout the Rhizome, it also
oxidizes everything in the reservoir, killing bacteria and algae. The good thing about
hydro is you don't rely on bacteria to feed your plants and predigest the
solutions for your roots, you rely on water soluble nutrients which
are not effected by H2O2, even Hygrozyme is safe to use with H202 it
says so right on the bottle, because Hygrozyme is not alive, unlike so many
other Enzymatic formulas.... Not knocking prozyme, or sensizyme, but
they aren't the best for maintannce in Hydro systems....

Definitely use H2O2 if you are running a Aerocloner or Recirculating Res.

Food Grade is always better

I personally mix 30 ml to a gallon of water/nute mix each time I water and I have never seen any sign of stress.

So would you say that the higher concentrated version of h202 would be benificial to work with this?

Its in an NFT type setup. I dont wanna kill any good bacteria that would feed the fungi, but I dont know how it would react with it.

I use it in my normal soil feeding and watering Found that the roots love it researched and fornd this and i use 30 ml per gallon on nuted water and when I plain water them ;

Hydrogen peroxide is beneficial as an addition to nutrient feeding programs at all times. It feeds the good aerobic bacteria and kills the bad anaerobic bacteria. It also introduces radical oxygen atoms which oxidize elements, making them more available for the roots to assimilate. I apply 3% H2O2 at a rate of 30ml/gallon to the reservoir. The plants show no visible signs of stress afterwards, which indicates that it was not an excessive application.

Sprouting Seeds: add 30ml 3% H2O2 to 1 pint of water. Soak the seeds overnight.
Insecticide Spray: combine 250ml 3% H2O2 to 1 gallon spray mix.
Fast growing container plants: add 30ml of 3% H2O2 to 1 gallon water.
Hydroponics: apply 3% H2O2 at a rate of 30ml/gallon to the nutrient reservoir.
