peroxide,& seed germanation

[kindindy123]

I recently germed 10 seeds,wet paper towel in ziplock bag method,left them a little to long in,got a little smell,of bacteria,taproot1/4" a little small,but anyway,i put some peroxide on them,alot of bubbling,did i just kill all of these seeds,or clean them????

I am not sure, but I do know that, I myself use a mix of Superthrive, H2O2 (Hydro. Perox) and R/O water for soaking my seeds. I have never had a problem, but the way you did it, only time will tell, unless it has happened to someone else. Just keep and eye on them is all you can do and hope for the best. In my opinion I think they will be fine. Did you spray them off with water, that would help.

Good luck!

Did you use straight H2O2 on them? I dunno how they are going to turn out since they are still basically seeds.

I used reg peroxide, think its low like 3%,& they were lightly rinsed off.

If they have root taps, I would put them in the dirt right away and hope for the best.

Cant hurt.

I've never done this myself, but if they're fizzing, you might've applied it too concentrated.

I'd do what seven suggested; plant em and see what you get.

Straight peroxide will damage tissue. If it was really weak it might be ok . I am curios to hear what it did.
