is a valuable substance to boost health and wellness in the body and around the home, but did you know it can also be
extremely beneficial for PLANTS?!
Hydrogen peroxide is not only an essential component of the human body's innate immune system, but its presence in the atmosphere also makes plant life thrive!
As rainwater (H₂O) falls to the earth, the ozone (O₃) layer contributes one oxygen atom to water molecules, naturally forming hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂).
"It is this hydrogen peroxide in rainwater that makes it so much more effective than tap water when given to plants."
Today, the air is so polluted that most of the hydrogen peroxide reacts with air-borne toxins and never reaches the ground.
To give your plants the boost they are missing from tap water and our compromised atmosphere, use 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide in the water you give them!
Here's how to:
HYDRATE PLANTS
16 drops 35% FGHP : 1 quart H₂O
Add 16 drops of 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide to every 1 quart of clean water you give plants.
NON-TOXIC (to humans!) INSECTICIDE
1 part 35% FGHP : 11 parts H₂O
Mix 1 part 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide to 11 parts clean water.
Spray on and around plants.
FUNGUS CONTROL ON PLANTS
1 part 35% FGHP : 11 parts H₂O
then
5 tablespoons DILUTION + 5 tablespoons SODIUM BICARBONATE : 1 gallon H₂O
Start by mixing 1 part 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide to 11 parts distilled water, then add 5 tablespoons of this dilution and 5 tablespoons sodium bicarbonate to 1 gallon water. Spray on plants.
INCREASE CROP YIELDS
5-16 oz 35% FGHP : 20 gallons H₂O
Add 5-16 oz of 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide to 20 gallons water.
Spray on an acre of crops for higher production.
SPROUT SEEDS
1 part 35% FGHP : 11 parts H₂O
then
12 tablespoons DILUTION : 2 cups H₂O
Start by mixing 1 part 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide to 11 parts clean water, then add 12 tablespoons of this dilution to 2 cups water. Soak seeds overnight. Drain and repeat daily until seed sprouts.
FIGHT ROOT ROT
1 part 35% FGHP : 11 parts H₂O
then
1 oz DILUTION : 10 oz H₂O
Root rot is a disease caused by overwatering, which leads to a lack of oxygen to the roots, and/or a fungus that thrives in wet soil. As the name suggests, it causes roots to rot, leading to plant death if left untreated. Because it affects the roots, it may go unnoticed until other symptoms present such as yellowing leaves, brown spots, stunted growth, and dying branches.
If you suspect root rot, remove the plant's soil and inspect its roots - healthy roots are green or white, and rotting roots may be brown or mushy. Gently remove rotten roots and foliage, and repot with fresh soil. Be sure to disinfect your tools to prevent spreading the root rot fungus to other plants!
To prevent, treat, and keep root rot at bay, start by mixing 1 part 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide to 11 parts clean water.
Add 1 oz of this dilution to 10 oz of clean water, and give to the base of your plants. Be sure your soil has proper drainage and aeration to prevent overwatering!
SOIL AERATION
1 part 35% FGHP : 11 parts H₂O
then
1 oz SOLUTE : 20 oz H₂O
Air pockets in soil allow water, oxygen, and nutrients to the roots of your plants! Proper aeration can also prevent disease.
Start by mixing 1 part 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide to 11 parts distilled water, then add 1 oz of this dilution to 20 oz of clean water and give to the base of your plants.
DISINFECTANT
1 part 35% FGHP : 11 parts H₂O
Mix 1 part 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide to 11 parts clean water.
Spray on trowels, pruning shears, pots, greenhouse walls and shelves, and other gardening tools to prevent the spread of disease throughout your garden - especially if you have used your implements on compromised plants and soil (such as those with root rot)!
*This same ratio and recipe can be used to sanitize surfaces inside the home as well, including hands, cutting boards, countertops, floors, and kitchen utensils!
Because there are so many amazing uses for 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide in the body and around the home and garden, we highly recommend investing in the largest volume you can afford to always have it on hand!
Our larger volumes of this economical and efficient substance are actually cheaper per ounce, and we also offer discounts by purchasing in bulk. Please read our product pages for more info!
