I THINK I NEED HELPPP H202

alright so last night i used some h202 on 3 of my plants and they seem to be perfect in the morning so i tried some on my 2 biggest plants and within 20 mins they were totally droopy, so right now im doing an emergency flush (just distilled water at the perfect ph). it seems to be working because they are slowly becoming back to life and have a little bit more strength behind them. anyone kno how long i should keep it in flush for? or did i totally fuck myself?

any recommendations to help them would be GREATLY appriatated

What do you mean by "use some h202" on your plants? How? And how much?

hydrogen peroxide to get rid of a little algae, i put 2 oz in a gallon of water with some nutes at 5.8 ph. which is what is recommended. i did it with 3 others the night before but i split a gallon between the 3 and they were totally healthy i think i just gave it too much at one time. but they are better now i just flushed them for about an hour then put 1/2 strength nutes until tomorrow morning, they are all perky and good now. i was just freaking out ealier i thought i killed my babies.

now lets get :stoned:

i don't see how the peroxide would have caused it; maybe overwater...

I didn't get it either. but it sure didn't like it. I'm growing hydroponically so I don't think its over watering lol.

the only thing I knew was I need to save my plant

The correct dose for H202 is 1 teaspoon per gallon. You were very lucky you did not fry your plants there. Hydrogen peroxide both bleaches and dries things. Hope your plants come back ok.....you may have problems in a day or two Cross your fingers.

they look like they are back to normal now. I was search the forums online and the formula that I found worked on 4 of my plants but didn't sit well with my other 2.

do u think I'm in the clear with my plants or do u still think something can still be wrong?

they look totally perfect now. like new. so I hope they are ok

I put a little less than 50ml in 5 gallon which comes to 2tps a gallon.

hmmm I hope things are alright. is there anything I should do? or am I doing the right thing?

I think you may have dodged the bullet.....watch your roots especially if you can. My hydro guy told me he did the same thing.....too much H202....and first the roots turned nice and white......then .....well enough said. He lost 1/2 his plants.

Sounds like you have done what you can. Keep a careful eye....roots are the most sensitive to that kind of drying thing..... let us know....

thanks man hopefully I did dodge it ill be totally bummed if something happens. its my first grow and I want it to be somewhat succesful lol. next time I will put wayyyyy less. well lessoned learned. my plants are on there 4th day in flower and starting to show the hairs. so hopefully I can give u some good news throughout the next 2 months and by the end show the final product. maybe enough a bowl or 2 with the people that have helped me out throughout the grow.

Well in my last grow I got the super cool idea to use molassas which was good but didnt use it correctly and caused HORRIBLE problems with my plants. Took me forever to straighten them out. It's a live and learn thing. ;)

it definitely is. when I look back on my grow there is already a bunch of things I would do differently. with set up. nutes. cleanliness. trimming. timing. lighting. air flow etc. but I think I've done a pretty good job for my first grow (except for this little hangup ). I was strapped for cash so I had to budget my materials. I built a room 8x8. I went to home depot bought a door with frrame dry wall and some 2x4's and made it. then I searched online and found a guy selling his 400 watt mh / hps w/ supersun hood for $150. then I went to a hardware supply store and bought six buckets and lids and six air pumps airstones and tubing. my grow set up would have cost be around $7-800 but I got everything for $300 for everything except for the clones cost me about $100 for six. but next grow I will have more supplies and definitely a whole lot more knowledge. this site has helped me gain and understand the knoledge needed to be a successful grower.
