I had a problem with fungus gnats so I flushed the soil with 1 part peroxide 3 parts water. After I watered with nutes at half strength. I did this with two plants and one looks fine the other one has twisted or mutated new growth what's going on? Anyone know?

Twisty can come from many things like heat or ph which ( might be the issue when you dumped peroxide in soil ) which will not do much for gnats.

The simple fix for gnats ( adult egg laying ) is do a top dress of perlite ( completely cover ) or even wood chips. The flying fucks can’t keep laying eggs when they find dry conditions... just scoop a hole to water a bit and re cover with said material.

You probably are seeing the effects of dumping things that are not really liked by the plant.
 
I crushed up a few mosquito dunks and sprinkled it on top of my soil after the flush. The flush was to kill larva. I had a lot of gnats. I caught most of them with vinegar and soap the rest will die soon enough. I need to flip but want to wait till she is healthy
