Sorry. By hangry I meant for water. Said it like that for dramatic effect.Doh!
They look hangry!
Is this microbial smell related to root rot?
A peroxide soak would help right?
Never peroxide in soil if u ask me but thats why I switched to coco. You will kill all your beneficial stuff imo.
For $48 I can't even wrap my head around that...
I new I read this somewhere!Go back to basics a little and keep it simple. You must 1st be able to keep a plant alive with only water and the most basic food before you start throwing all this crap at it. Just my 2 cents tho
That whole page is about hydro. I know. I use h2o2 in coco. Did you read the editors note on the bottom? That's what im talking about.I new I read this somewhere!
it Is for that general purpose on bacteria. For disinfecting. The tables, pumps, hoses, etc.The percent not the price...maybe if you put up a pic of a bottle of 3% and spoke from experience not from what you just read in a forum I would take the time to explain the subtleties of using h202 in your grow.

Unless your planning a swath of death and destruction you shouldn't use the kind that says highly corrosive but that's about all I am going to explain you should keep searching the forums though you're gonna dig up a lot of great stuff good luck
I believe this was your question though...it Is for that general purpose on bacteria. For disinfecting. The tables, pumps, hoses, etc.
And seriously thank you for clearing that up because my reasoning was wrong although methodology may have been correct I definitely learned something you the man alwaysLet me try to clear this up... anaerobic conditions in pots with soil only happens from overwatering. Over watering is not watering to much its watering to often. A sopping wet soil has minimal gas exchange and as the o2 is used up by the roots and microbes it becomes depleted (anaerobic)and this is why perlite is beneficial as the better the drainage the less likely it is to occur.
I would NEVER use h2o2 in my soil... as explained it will severely hurt the microbes population and possibly wipe them out. Its highly oxidative. Now you can treat water before hand with it and use UV light to accelerate it and burn out the h2o2 or aerate it for 24hrs then it's fine.
The smell is not from anaerobic bacteria but from anaerobic conditions that kill aerobic bacteria and this smell is the decaying bacteria. This can also happen when you feed the microbes heavy and then stop and the population booms and crashes when it runs out of food.
Thought you were pretty on point here... but didn't read it all.And seriously thank you for clearing that up because my reasoning was wrong although methodology may have been correct I definitely learned something you the man always
