Not sure what you mean. Peroxide will kill off beneficials in organics... it can be used with chem nutes. What's your reason for wanting to use it?

the reason i asked your purpose for use is you posted in the infirmary.. led me to believe you may have a rot prob..

there are different uses and each use requires different amounts of h202

some good info...

I would only worry about using H202 if I were having root rot problems due to a lack of dissolved O2 or the few other reasons out there. Other than that it is completely uneeded and just a waste of money. It doesn't hurt to add a little, but it is hardly benificial with healthy plants. You can use it with ferts just fine. I used it in my DWC bubblers for a little while and during a flush after some minor nute burn. My girls turned out just dandy.

I find H202 halts rootrot. I use it for this reason. At times, I will pour the desired amount onto the roots directly. One of the negatives when dealing with DWC.
