Using peroxide in garden
J u
So I’m just wondering does all this apply to marijuana plants and if I’m putting peroxide into the soil, it’s not going to kill any of the beneficial bacteria‘s or bio life? Also, I know this sounds weird but what if you only have 30% peroxide (obviously dilute it) but I feel like it might just be better to go by myself some 3%
I use 2 tablespoons of 3% H2O2 per 1 gallon of water in every watering and have amazing results. Healthier plants , more fruit and larger fruit. There are 256 tablespoons per gallon so this is a much lighter concentration application that is beneficial and safe for every watering. The ratios used here are for fixing existing problems. Using 2 tbls/gallon will prevent the problems way before they occur. Great video!!
Hey, great to hear! So you're just using it for overall health and not pest control? That's awesome you're seeing a difference!
Wow, thanks !!!! I can do that
Great info. Thanks!
@@chanthana7694 :-)
Great comments. I gardened with it in my water, also.
I had an apple tree that suffered from fungus for years. The main tree died but it had a root sprout up and grew a new main stem. Once it grew to about 6’ I noticed all the leaves had signs of fungus. I mixed 1 bottle H2O2 with five gallons of water and treated the tree once a month thru one summer. The fungus slowly disappeared. The next year I only treated it one time and it produce apples like I have never seen before. Amazing
I have the same problem with my apple trees. Going to try your solution. (no pun intended) What size bottle of H2O2? 16 oz, or 32 oz?
That's a great story! I am glad you saved your apple tree.
You're aware fungus mycelium creates H²O² to fight the surrounding bacteria
Did you spray the foliage and trunk or just watering the soil?
Thank you for all this info of h202, I loose my tomato plants and zucchini every year. Now I moved to the front of my house, not sure what gets it, I think they get fungus. Can this method be used as a preventative?
I am 74 years old, grow a 1/4 acre garden, 2 goats in milk, chickens, 2 cows, and I would love to have a freeze dryer. I have followed your utube channel, used your recipes, gotten lots of ideas about building all sorts of things on the homestead. watching your channel has been a blessing. keep up the good work. God bless you and your family.
I’m 65. I’ve gardened most of my life. But got chickens last year for first time. It’s going great. I did get a freeze dryer but having a tough time to get it to work😞
Harvest right freeze dryers has a lay away program pay as you can,paid for in couple yrs. Great Quality too.
@@kathyjones3165 but I still haven’t had success with my the vacuum pump error. And there’s no service person to come out. You’re supposed to fix it yourself. I’m not mechanical. I’m 65. When I pay 4K for an appliance, I expect to plug it in and have it work. Currently collecting dust 😞
Carollori I had the same experience with harvest right. Poor design. Poor service!! I’m waiting on Fed Ex to pick mine up to return for refund. Had it several months and it never worked! Trash!! Waste of $3,000!!
Don’t know why anyone would want to put thumbs down on this because these are great tips that work!!!!
Thanks so much Trish! Really appreciate that! :-)
Because people love to criticize!
Cause they believe the leftist... damn sheep! They don’t wanna do their own research but to be told what to do
@@slb2904 100%...forever and always. Lol
@@74ford65 and its only getting worse
I gargle with Hydrogen Peroxide right when I'm beginning to get a sore throat and it works great! Kills every bug you have.
Right on Cedric....what % strength?
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms 3%, I think, usually does the trick. Just don't swallow!
I usually gargle with hot salted water. In the past 16 months though, I've had one sore throat infection after another. I'm going to give the Hydro-Peroxide a go now.
@@loverlyme let us know if it actually works!
Be sure it is the food grade if you gargle with it.
Believe it has an FDA approved label.
I've been adding Hydrogen Peroxide to the water of my cut flowers for years. It will feed the plants and keep the water clear for up to 2 weeks!!
I use one or two cap full to the vase depending how big the vase is
That is amazing Janice...second time I have heard that today. Next Mother's Day, I am 100% trying that! :-)
Thank you do much!
@@sjc5727 Thanks for watching Suza!
Great idea. I will use that next time I have cut flowers . Thank you.
Thanks Janice Young. I love my cut flowers and especially cut roses. I will try this on the next cuttings.
I wash my veggies using water & a little hydrogen peroxide, then package them with a towel a little water + drops of hydrogen peroxide, especially romaine lettuce. Amazing how well it works.
Vinegar is more environmentally friendly. H2O2 is highly reactive and energy and plastic dependant. At least for washing produce. Soak in a 10 percent solution about 5 minutes to 10 minutes and rinse.
@@dandylandpuffplaysminecraf8744 Thanks for commenting ☺Yes I use vinegar too. So anyone else dealing with toxic fluoride in the tap water ? I think wt? I have to use bottled /filtered water to wash the veggies, why would I want to soak organic food in poison fluoride ? I am frustrated !!!!! Bad enough trying to find non toxic expensive organic produce, then that issue. I lost my home with a well during "the Big Short". Looking to see Americas' criminal minions, uh, I mean politicians, to quit agreeing to genociding, we the people ! Fluoride was used as Rat Poison it actually dissolves our bones, causes all kinds of diseases, Hitler used it in the death camps because it makes people docile; explains why people have no backbone and are so apathetic,.Lowers IQ, is an Endocrine Disruptor; so people gain weight & get sick, calcifies their Pineal Gland which is the tuner to God/Source. Have a look at these facts, the front page says a lot, check out the pages on diseases it causes, please tell everyone you know too🤗. Public Water should be clean !!!!! Why are we paying to be POISONED ⁉ fluoridealert.org/
@@CherylWhitestone Have you sent your tap water to a lab for analysis? If not, you should do this. There's more fluoride in your toothpaste than in your water. Best to get a lab report.
@@CherylWhitestone I have to assume that you didn't get a lab report on your tap water. If you did get a lab report, what was the listed fluoride value. I did go to the link, and it will take awhile to decifer it. Thanks.
You might want to do a vinegar rinse on your fruits and veggies which are “waxedl
I can attest to this on a micro level- as in microgreens. Early on in my micro-ing journey, I spritzed H2O2 water to get rid of algae or mold and I witnessed the freshly germinated seeds spring to life instantly.
Yeah sounds really good,I'll be using it from now on,I just started container gardening 2 weeks ago so I need all the valuable information I can get..
I had no idea you could use hydrogen peroxide in the garden like this! Thank you for making this video
Glad you liked it Ivy, thanks for watching! :-) 🌶🍅
Some of my houseplants suddenly were attacked by aphids in February. Ladybugs were migrating through the house. )))) I put several of them in the pots and very soon NO aphids were visible. The ladybugs dove into the pot dirt to finish off the ones underground. Everybody happy )))) except the aphids.
I love lady bugs more than anything!!
Lol
You were lucky to have lady bugs when you needed them most. Wonder how to attract lady bugs to a garden ?
@@SwtTrisha8 we use to buy ladybugs from a gardening store along time ago
i can't tell the difference any longer between ladybugs and Asian Beetles. They look so similar. So, no ladybugs are allowed in my house. Their twin Asian Beetles stink!
Hydrogen Peroxide can also be used to remove blood stains. Just like it helps with cleaning a wound if you get blood onto your clothing or carpet just pour it on and watch it do its stuff. Wait about 15 minutes then blot with a cloth. Reapply until stain is gone. I use full strength for this.
I need to try this stuff! What about for laundry as a safer alternative to bleach?
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms I’m definitely not sure about that but it sounds like an interesting experiment lol.
@@kattsremedies4308 already on it, lol! :-)
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms I can confirm it will replace bleach but you need quite a bit more. 2 or 3 cups in a full load of laundry, then soak overnight.
@@girlnextdoorgrooming in trying it tonight! Seaweed stains is the project!
I'm new to gardening. Your channel is God-sent to me! So precise and informative without unnecessary talking. Thank you so much!
Hey, thanks for that!! Much appreciated! :-)
Then Don't use h202 watering plants!!!
I'm a newbie also (2 weeks container gardening) and this guy is really good...
I’m also new and I started a garden and my potatoes kept dying and I do not know why. The my start out great and then all of a sudden in a week or so the plant starts dying, the tops die and the potatoes disappear. I have no idea why. I have many pests, squirrels, chickens and rabbits.. not to mention the bugs are so bad in the swamps of south Ga.
@sarahmostacci1154 Just keep at its all trial and error,i planted some sweet potatoes but got nothing yet and I also want to plant some potatoes,it's all a learning process and I'm definitely learning and you'll keep learning as well.. New Jersey.
You can also use it to loosen up compacted ear wax😃 Put a cpl drops in, keep your head tilted for about a minute or so then gently wipe it out. Wearing earbuds can cause a wax buildup 🙁 Just thought I’d mention it sense a lot of ppl are working from home now and probably using ear buds.
Lol, whatever works!
Try and warm it up a little bit, cold liquids in ears is excruciating. I put a little peroxide in a little dish, then run warm water over the side of the dish, don't get the water in the peroxide. It feels so much better than room temp liquid.
I've been doing this for my kids for years
My sister has double hearing aids and her audiologist suggested that she not put anything smaller than her elbow in her ear to clean it. She suggested hydrogen peroxide,so we both started using it once a month, it works!
@@phyllo2694 nice phyllo!
Thank you so much for this advice, it’s a great alternative to pesticides which can harm the bees and other beneficial insects.
Exactly! And its not systemic like other chemicals that sit in your soil and plant tissues....continuing to poison! Good stuff.
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms I'm doing the aeration today, then the pest control after. I'm also soaking the seeds for my fall garden hoping for better results. Thank you.
Btw, recap is much appreciated.
I use to help with stinky drains. One to two cups of 3% H2O2 at night (so it won't get washed away) really seems to help. It doesn't help with clogs, but when you hear that fizz coming out of the drain you know it's killing microbes down there.
Good tip, thanks! :-)
Try baking soda and vinegar for the clog.
@@trekketoo Anything's better than harmful chemicals!
What's the point of that?
Could use Clorox àlso. It's probàbly cheaper

As usual, you are right on time to rescue my plants!! Just yesterday I noticed a prolific bell pepper was drooping, 😭 Aphids! Now I know- thanks to you it will get a 4:1 solution tomorrow. There's 1 lizard trying valiantly to eat them all, but it's 'that' time in South Florida.He needs backup! Thanks again Jeff!
Ha ha go lizard!! Best of luck Patricia, you got this! 🙂
I just purchased a few herbs two that have problems I did not catch. They are now in my windowsill, I treated their soil with 3% peroxide. Sprayed with neem oil and picking off the infected leaves. I consider it an opportunity to try to save them, and experiment. Thai basil, Lemon Balm and Sweet basil. The others are planted and doing great.
@@karenreaves3650 that's the right attitude Karen! Let us know if they make it!
Make sure whatever you use, does not poison the lizard. I know dogs cannot handle peroxide without some major problems. Example, Horny-toads are dying off because of ant poison making their meals toxic.
I used it to kill algae in my fountains and ponds (without fish). I use it to whiten my teeth and kill bacteria below the gum line that can cause gum disease. (I’m 60 years old and have only had one filling in my entire life and no other dental ailments).
Nice Sheila, love it!
Hey Sheila, I do the same thing ! I have been using peroxide for about 25 yrs now and with great results!
@@carolynemurray6686 thanks for sharing Carolyne!
What is the ratio for the fountains? thanks

Great info. And thanks for the last clip of the ratios, very helpful.
Great info. Can't wait to try my seeds this coming spring with H2O2!
Right on Jean! Remember, store-bought seeds have already likely been treated with it.....this will be more useful for your own saved seeds! Still, it does give even cleaned seeds a boost and will protect them from fungal outbreaks in not-so-clean soil!
So impressed I with all the helpful information provided that I immediately subscribed to your channel

I'm learning soooo much about cinnamon, H2O2 & Epsom Salts to use in the garden & flower beds! Thanks for mentoring us 🍅 🌼🌹🌻🌱🍓🌽
Thank you for your advice. I asked your opinion of best way to deal with root rot in a poor struggling tree - gardenia. I asked the frequency of 1:10 application of 3% to it.
The two "trunks" of what was left of the tree, I could not reach with my longest finger the holllowness and soft fibrous material up the stems. So I sprayed up the centre of the trunk +++. Would you believe only after the first application, before a week was up, the central part of the stem had HEALED!!...just about 5 cms of hollowness left. Amazing! The tree knew best...it had grown more surface roots and the root base below the ground had rotted away. So I'm spraying that void too.
The main cause was a built-up garden bed which I've levelled as best as possible and allowed drainage. YOU HAVE SAVED THIS TREE...THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
VERY useful and WELL presented. Most excellent and Thank you!!
Mix Alcohol and Hydrogen Peroxide together, equal amounts of each, and put in a small bottle with a dropper. One drop to each ear drys the water up really fast when you get water in your ears, plus it's good to use when you have an earache. Thank you for this video.
Thanks for the tip! :-)
I followed your instructions and only got drunk, mixing hydrogen peroxide and Jack Daniels. Should I have used vodka instead?
Thank you, it's what the Doc used for my son's ears.

Right on, best of luck! Report back with your success!
be careful if u have fish need some for health
@@kingspal99 I'm talking about string algee, there are other plants that doing fine. The only fish I have in there are bluegill and they'll do fine.
What size is your pond and how do you use the peroxide/how much?
@@TheFrugalFlyRodder Would you use a smaller amount for smaller ornamental ponds? My brother in law has a terrible time with algae in his pond. It's not as deep. I'll let him know about this. Peroxide is a really versatile and cheap solution to a lot of things, not just wound care. I use on house plants when the dirt smells moldy.

What proportion?

Also handy to have in your garden for cuts, scratches and bumps on your own body!!

Such an amazing, safe liquid! Thanks for watching!
Hydrogen peroxide is cytotoxic. That means it kills cells. Latest research shows, when it is applied to fresh wounds, it kills your healthy cells as well as bacteria and actually *slows* the healing process because it does even more damage to the wound when applied.
Thank you for that information! Exactly what I was looking for!!

Thank you for sharing this! I’ve been using hydrogen peroxide for combating scales. It is great to know there are other ways to use it as well.
Awesome! Forgot about that one too! Cheers!
@R Reimer. What ratio do you use when spraying the scale. They're on my gardenia bushes. The scale killed the bushes last summer. Thanks 😊
I used a soaked cotton swab of hydrogen peroxide onto each of the scales to pull them off. I kept at it every day until there’s no more. I also repotted removing the majority of the soil and threw the old soil out. My plant was small at the time.
@@rreimer9320That's a great idea to use a q-tip on small plants. I would have to spot spray. My gardenia bushes are 3'x6' , too big to use a q-tip on. Thanks for the tip.

Thanks Susan, all the best! :-)
Thanks ,love the H202 as well . The process to stabilize the extra o2 is different ,between pharmacy and horticulture intended uses.According to my findings.
Totally. But H2O2 is weak and unstable by nature. It doesn't take much "process" to shed the extra O at all.
I heard another grower say dont add H2O2 to your mix until ready to use it, that it goes “flat” fairly quickly, at which point you wont get the same results, meaning it loses its effectiveness after some time
@@williamcarr3976 Yes! I have heard this as well. Its my understanding that the reason it goes "flat" is because of the same reason H202 comes in brown opaque bottles. To block UV rays that quickly degrades it. And so a simple dark bottle prevents that and makes it last years. But, If someone did want to mix in advance, then i would think placing the mixture into a similarly dark, UV proof closed container would also help preserve it until its time to use? 🤷🏼♀
Oh my goodness, this was right on time! I have a huge problem it appears all of my plants start off really nicely in within a week or less the leaves start to accumulate theses Beach spots all over the leaves and when I move that leaves there are tons of little flies they’re not white flies and they’re not black they like a sandy color I noticed you’re coming from the soil although I buy new soil still I’m gonna give this a try thank you so much for your time and generosity in sharing with us all
Gotta be fungus gnats.....especially in new soil, and especially indoors or in greenhouses. I hope this works, it really did for me! Report back with your results! :-)
I use it in a 1x4 ratio in spray bottle all the time , even as a pervenitive. we bring bugs into our grow rooms on our shoes and clothes.
