Are there any negative side effects of adding H2O2 to your rez?

Yes, I can't use microbes or any other organic substance without risk of the h2o2 destroying it.

There are usually reservoir cleaners/cleansers or whatever the nutrient company will call them that are guaranteed to work with your nutrient line, of course, and do the same thing.

Yep, Wiimb called it, had to lower the light

Had to take more water out.. also h2o2 treating tomorrow if I remember.

Added 5ml of Mojo parts A and B. I'll add some calmag week 2, but just a small amount.

What % H2O2 are you using and how much per Gal. I have never tried this and was thinking about it. i guess I want to add a bit of VO to my grow. Any advise in this matter would be appreciated.

I use the 3%, roughly squirt in 5-9ml per gallon couldn't hurt, but I'm new to the h2o2 as well.

I couldn't see the need for much more than that, and I suppose you could use less if it was of higher concentration.

"Three percent Hydrogen Peroxide may be added at up to 3 ml's per liter (2 1\2 tsp. per gallon), but it is recommended that you start at a lower concentration and increase to full strength over a few weeks. "

Hey there VO and Faller200
i am new to hydro in general but i do a lot of online reading and if you guys want a good read on H202 i would suggest this link http://www.growfaq.net/index.php?sid=8891054&lang=en&action=artikel&cat=16&id=491&artlang=en i thought it was a good red and explained h202 use in hydro systems very well

Cool and thanks F1. I've recently talked to several professionals who all share the some consensus: Don't grow organic in DWC.

That's funny I read the same article after I used much more than that. Oh well I changed all the buckets and I hope for the best. They wilted a bit but may come back.

3 ml per litre..... Dont let the funny euros fool ya. Theres 3.78 litres in a gal. So you werent completely off

No I was way off the print was small and I don't see that well it said 3.0 -5.0ml per liter and read it as 30 -50ml. damn bifocals

They look better today but I don't know yet. O well got lots more clones ready do I live and learn not to mix nutes when I'm buzzed

Slow but sure.. A popular consensus is that I should have waited for them to root a little more before putting them into their DWCs, but I'm not entirely 100% sure that this is faster anyway.

They should both be out of seedling stage by Wednesday.

Would of been the best choice to wait for better roots but as long as you top water somehow you will be fine!

VO we've done everything the same way with the exception of my drip irrigation, and ten inch net pots. I've never had trouble pre-germinating, dropping straight into rockwool, and again straight into DWC. I germed within 72 hours, and sprouted within 3 days. I'm not sure what the benefit is for extra effort involved in the flood drain process for rooting. Peace.

hows the plants m8??
