This is the perfect channel to follow if you live in zone 7.I followed last year to the letter and had a showcase garden . This man really has excellent information and his timing is really on time for this zone.
You can spray on leaves of plants, especially on plants that are brown with root rot! 1 tsp., Peroxide to 1cup water, in spray bottle. You can also spray the same solution on soil before you intend to plant anything. I learned on a channel called, Daisy Creek Farms with Jay Singh. I learn from you ,Gary and Daisy Creek.

i'm a first time gardener, and i've followed your instructions and advice completely, used your seed shop seeds, and i've had tremendous success! in fact, i started more seedlings than i have room for and they all germinated, grew, and thrived! today i woke up and saw white fuzz and green fuzz on some of my pepper seedlings, only two things changed - i put my cold crops out to harden them off two days before, and i gave the peppers a tiny drink from the top the night before . . . i'm going to try the bowl of ACV first since that's the least invasive treatment. thank you so much for all of the videos gary!!
Thanks for they order and so glad for the success. Mold isnt always so bad especially on larger seed starts so dont over stress. Let the tops of soil dry too.

Thank you, Gary, for doing this video today. This morning, when I went to check my seedlings most of the trays had the white fungus all over the top of the soil. I just took the top layer of soil off. There are fungus gnats flying around. I’m sure it’s because I’ve been taking my plants outside for a little while every day. So tonight I picked up my phone to research what to do about it and this video was the first thing that popped up. I didn’t even search anything, so yeah, I really appreciate your experiment and recommendation. Great job as always!

It's not from taking them outside, it's because you're watering them too much and you don't have enough airflow. Try watering from the bottom, but if you can't do that for some reason, try watering a little less and have a fan lightly blowing on your seedlings while they're still inside

Just put glue boards down under your lights. In a few days it will be covered in gnats and once all the adults are caught, you have no more breeders and they will disappear.

Within commercial hydroponic systems we frequently use hydrogen peroxide to disinfect the growing trays. During actual growing of the plants I have found one of the most effective ways to control mold and fungal growth as well as nats is controlling the water. If you are consistently growing more knats then beneficial plants water less to the make environment less favorable for them to thrive.
Ewell Acres.. I too also do hydro..I start/grow about 200 seeds/seedling every week..for my small group of customers.. I use 3% HydroPeroxide to pre soak my rockwool..and far less algae issues. All trays are pre wiped with it as well. Big positive difference!

Hi Gary, What a GREAT video!! Thank you for sharing your experiment. Please if you can try to advise me... I purchased about 40 bags of organic potting soil on clearance in March and I have been planting petunia plugs like a mad women this past month. I believe I have about 2000 so far. The soil is sopping wet in the plastic bags, between thawing out and being out in the rain. I noticed small bugs in the soil along with tiny ants and I was thinking it might be okay because it's organic soil. I have always used fresh bags of miracle grow potting soil and never saw that before. I think I might have a problem brewing. I see plenty of gnats and I ended up putting the fly strips to catch them. Can I spray my little petunia plants with Hydrogen Peroxide and also water them with Hydrogen Peroxide? Or should I just try to water each and every tray from the bottom with the 4 to 1 ratio ? I am so afraid of killing these plants and I don't know what to do. I am growing them for neighbors, our local church and town. What would you do Gary?
So those are fungus gnats and they breed like crazy and the larva eat the roots. I would first let the plugs dry pretty well so soil is dry on top. Grab a flat and use peroxide as the 4:1 ratio. Test 1 flat see how they do at that ratio for like a week. Basically your testing the ratio. Keep up the strips. Are they outside or inside? I am assuming inside. Take the flats out too as often you can. And let the wind blow away the adults. Good luck Please Visit The Rusted Garden Seed & Garden Shop: www.therustedgarden.com/ - Seeds, Starting Supplies, Neem Oil, Peppermint & Other Oils, Calcium Nitrate & More
@@THERUSTEDGARDEN Thanks so much Gary. I feel so panicked! It's pretty windy out today so I will try to air them out a bit. (yes inside a small 20' greenhouse) As soon as they dry I will try the one tray at a time. Would any type of fertilizer help to kill fungus gnats? 20-20-20? You have such great video's. I just subscribed. Thank you again.
Hey Gary I just had a slight heart attack, moved up my seedlings and noticed each and every cell has mold/fungus growth within the soil. Looked through my previous transplanted ones and they to have it. Im starting to loose plants.. 4:1 peroxide should work for it right??
My Man Gary thanks for this video I was having issues with germination had that white fungus crap on some seeds and will use this on my soil to clean it up.....Someone give this man an award!!!
Good luck. Let me know how it goes. Dont over strength it either. 4:1 is plenty Check out my new Amazon Influencer's Shop. Anything you buy on Amazon helps The Rusted Garden when using my link.

Once I get my containers "refurbished" I plan to spray the contents really good with hydrogen peroxide before I add my seed started plants to the containers ..... some people put H2O2 in the water every time they water their plants. They say it makes the stems thicker and actually acts like a bit of a fertilizer. The one thing I also will do is rake the top couple of inches of soil in my containers a few times before I add my started plants to possibly disrupt any pest eggs near the surface. Thanks much for doing this experiment .... very interesting results. Hope you have the best year ever ..... take care.

Gray, great job as always. I new question: if I don't use all my diluted H2O2 in the sprayer, how long does it stay strong? One day? Two days? 10 minutes? Thanks!
Id pick a ration and test it. Green leaves can be fragile. 2:1 may be fine but you might find you have to go higher and even if 2:1 was safe... a more dilute ratio is just as effective. You save money. Please Visit The Rusted Garden Seed & Garden Shop: www.therustedgarden.com/ - Seeds, Starting Supplies, Neem Oil, Peppermint & Other Oils, Calcium Nitrate & More
I appreciate your instruction in the scientific method. Fungi communities are important to nutrient and water absorption. Most fungus is NOT pathogenic. Soil drenches in garden should be followed by mychorhysal innoculation to restore balance.
For starting mix it is not as important. I do add in worm casting to help. I found the potting up, the next step really important for the fungi and soil life. The balance comes back fast at the speed microbes reproduce is crazy good.

I make little fungus knat traps by putting apple cider in little containers (GU glass pudding jars are great) with a good squirt of washing up liquid in the middle (like a yolk)! I've caught more than knats, those pesky little flies & other midges that get in the house love them too!
What a coincidence. I just used the 4:1 ratio yesterday on some of my passive hydropic herbs and lettuces. I let the root balls soak for 5 minutes and still saw the gnat larvae swimming around in the solution. I'm thinking I need to try the 2:1.
Good stuff! Since I switched to T 5’s a couple of years ago from the old heavy ballast lights I have had trouble with damping off. I figure it’s because the T5’s are so much cooler running the mold gets a good start in my cool basement. I have bought some heat mats for this year and I will be sure to have hydrogen peroxide on hand to drench the soil with a 4 to 1 ratio of water to hydrogen peroxide if needed! Thank you so much for this good work. I used to use a fungicide called No Damp on my seedlings but it was banned in our province several years ago! Klaus
I am working on a spray formula for spraying seedling tops and top of soil. That would probably be great for damping off disease. I just want to test it before I talk about it.

Hi, I enjoyed your experimentation video. I know you used the 4:1 ratio for bottom watering but could you use the same ratio for top spraying or misting? Thank you
Youd have to try it. I think I found 6 to 1 or 8 to 1 was safest for leaves. But you can try it. Just dont spray everything at once Please visit my seed shop www.therustedgarden.com for Neem Oil, Peppermint & Rosemary Oil for pest and disease management. Calcium Nitrate for Blossom End Rot and for Seeds and Seed Starting Supplies. Thanks so much!
Such a great video, thank you for sharing! I love how you did the experiment and then we got to see each stage, such a great idea for a video! I have found a couple fungus gnats around my succulents. Do you think I could maybe even do a light spray of a 4-1 ratio of water and hydrogen peroxide on the succulents themselves, to keep the fungus gnats away?
So leaf spray is a different ratio. I had to cut it by a lot more that 4. I have as summer video on it for spraying tomatoes. I would use that dilution. Or if you try 4:1. Spray the leaves and soil tops for 1 plant and wait 4 or 5 days for damage. Check out my new Amazon Influencer's Shop. Anything you buy on Amazon helps The Rusted Garden when using my link.

Mr. Gary as always a wonderful video. One question, how long do we leave the plants in the solution before we take them out? Also u said to use a 4:1 ratio. Which is 4 cups of water and 1 cup of 3% peroxide is that correct?
Thats the ratio I am using. You can go 4:1 or 5:1. You should add enough that it all gets absorb. But if left sitting in extra. Just 30 minutes and dump out the excess.
I have used 3% directly as a soil drench for a long time with zero issues, on the contrary it boosts plants. One thing though, I always top water with it, carefully holding up the leaves or using a watering can with a thin nozzle, and water multiple times. Because I feel like for the H2O2 to penetrate and work quickly, you need to give plants a good flush from the top, and then after some water runs through the bottom you can soak them if you must. Since things like fungus gnats breed in the top layers of the potting mix, I would do the H2O2 from the top, but generously. It works for algae and fungi as well. With bottom watering, by the time the H2O2 would be wicked up into the top layers of the soil, it could very well lose most of its potency. Long story short, I water with it from the top, slowly, taking breaks to ensure you have saturation, and then do another round as a soak leaving the H2O2 in the tray for a bit You also want to be hearing the sizzling sounds coming from the potting mix. With some kinds of potting mix, you may even see extreme bubbling where the soil rises so much that it comes out of the pot a little bit.

Hi Gary, great video as always. for fungi/mold problem would you leave the seed tray in the diluted h2o2 for the first 24h? or is it just like water them (20min or so then tossing the remainder water)? Thanks so much in advance
Thanks so much. Just 20 minutes or so, once the mix sucks it up. Please visit my seed and garden shop at www.therustedgarden.com for all your seeds, seed starting supplies and organic oils. Thanks!
I had some white fuzzy mold on mine I have been picking off and covering my seedlings with cinnamon. While doing this I noticed little clear larvae slipping around inside the soil 🤦🏽♀️ so I found this video and I am currently soaking them in the solution. I don’t have gnats flying yet! I have basil, spinach, oregano, collard greens, and pak choy, I hope this works I only have once of each. It’s my first time starting seeds. I hope it kills off the gnats because it looks like I will be infested if these things make it to maturity.

Okay so is it just me? But the tomatoes that didn't get any hydrogen peroxide are much taller and why wouldn't you be able to add this 4 to 1 ratio into your starting mix before you even transplant your seedlings?
You sure can do it to the starting mix early and clean it. Even at a higher strength. All the tomatoes are not the same variety, I was testing germination. That taller batch might have been some cherries that tend to grow fast.

Well not being there it is hard to say but that isnt abnormal. Often the metal has stuff on it. As long as the light receptacle is rated for the bulb, you should be fine.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN Thank you for your reply. My clamp lights are rated for 150w and if some smell is ok, I feel my set up is ok. I built a grow box out of a cardboard box (it fits one 72 cell tray perfectly) several years ago and lined it with aluminum foil. The foil tears and was getting in tough shape. This year a relined the box with foil mylar rescue blanket which seems more durable. I think the smell seems stronger because it's a small enclosed space. Also I decided to remove the shields of the clamp lamps since I'm germinating pepper seeds and they need the warmth more than light at this time. That also reduced the smell. I also put LED lights on my birthday list. Thanks for all your information you share on your videos. I use many of your tips and practices in my gardening.

Have you ever used BT-I to get rid of the nats. I will soak the granules 2 Tbls. to 1-1/2 cups water for a day then screen it clean and add 3 more cups of water and put it in a spray bottle and give that to my wife to spray the soil (she has 15 or so plans that must stay inside here in Maryland) over the winter . So far its worked. 10 years ago we had white flies in the early spring on the seedlings it took about 2 weeks before the last ones died but they started dropping in 2 to 3 days. Thanks so much for the information I am going to use your way on the Jiffy starting mix on some tomato seeds tomorrow .

My mom recently gave me rose seeds to start for her and everything I’ve read says to use hydrogen peroxide to get rid of any risk of fungus since they are easily susceptible to diseases. Can I apply the 2:1 ratio when starting rose seeds?
Hydrogen peroxide in too high of concentration will fry the plants roots so you just need to make sure it's enough to attack fungus but not too much to damage roots/kill plants. I would start with Gary's radio of 4 parts water to 1 part hydrogen peroxide. If it's not enough and your plants are fine, bump it up a little.
I think Id start with 1:4 More isnt always better but I dont know for sure. Check out my new Amazon Influencer's Shop. Anything you buy on Amazon helps The Rusted Garden when using my link.

I have no problem starting tomato plants indoors, but my garden is hopelessly contaminated with fungi. Would you recommend drenching the soil at the base of newly transplanted tomato plants?

Many. But you can replace them easily once the major issues are under control. Unless you added microbes to your starting mix... there really isnt any. You can add microbe back with worm casting, casting tea an other thing.
@@THERUSTEDGARDEN I always start all my seeds in reverse osmosis filtered rain water that has had Kelp meal added, although the Kelp meal doesnt offer much in the way of nutrition the logic is that the active growth hormones help the seedlings immune system development. The down side is that the environment created is also prime for trich,gnats, and some other issues, the good side however is the over 90% germination success.
That works. That is a really good rate. Check out my new Amazon Influencer's Shop. Anything you buy on Amazon helps The Rusted Garden when using my link. Ill be putting what I use in videos there for 2019. It is all set up by categories. Thanks. www.amazon.com/shop/garypilarchiktherustedgarden
I could see doing this for something that isn't tomatoes, because my experience is that tomatoes don't care about fungus or gnats. They grow quickly enough that they bust through the phase where fungus and gnats could damage them. I'd sooner try this for, say, snapdragons or portulaca, something that stays tiny for a long time, but by the same token they might be more easily harmed by the peroxide. I just spray copper stuff for fungus and spray and drench azadirachtin for gnats or mites.

Nothing seems to work on these fungus gnats. The neem oil seems to maintain a little control. Also, I don’t think I have an infestation. I have a habanero that it’s cotyledons are slightly curving down, wouldn’t say it was wilting. Could it be damage from gnats? Like I said there really isn’t many of them, they don’t even show up on the traps with Vaseline but they are flying around. Sometimes I don’t even see any. Plants look green and healthy except one bell pepper, it’s growing at a 90 degree angle at the top of the stem.
Hard to say what is going on with the pepper. Let it dry a bit between waterings. Gnats are the worst.

You can spray on leaves of plants, especially on plants that are brown with root rot! 1 tsp., Peroxide to 1cup water, in spray bottle. You can also spray the same solution on soil before you intend to plant anything. I learned on a channel called, Daisy Creek Farms with Jay Singh. I learn from you ,Gary and Daisy Creek.
I love both their channels! They explain and present information so succinctly!

i'm a first time gardener, and i've followed your instructions and advice completely, used your seed shop seeds, and i've had tremendous success! in fact, i started more seedlings than i have room for and they all germinated, grew, and thrived! today i woke up and saw white fuzz and green fuzz on some of my pepper seedlings, only two things changed - i put my cold crops out to harden them off two days before, and i gave the peppers a tiny drink from the top the night before . . . i'm going to try the bowl of ACV first since that's the least invasive treatment. thank you so much for all of the videos gary!!
Thanks for they order and so glad for the success. Mold isnt always so bad especially on larger seed starts so dont over stress. Let the tops of soil dry too.

My secret gnat weapon is one of those mosquito zappers that look like badminton rackets. Wave that over the plants to zap the adults.
Tip, once you use the hydrogen peroxide for the soil. You must wait until the soil had dried then a half feed then back to normal. Great vid.

Thank you, Gary, for doing this video today. This morning, when I went to check my seedlings most of the trays had the white fungus all over the top of the soil. I just took the top layer of soil off. There are fungus gnats flying around. I’m sure it’s because I’ve been taking my plants outside for a little while every day. So tonight I picked up my phone to research what to do about it and this video was the first thing that popped up. I didn’t even search anything, so yeah, I really appreciate your experiment and recommendation. Great job as always!
Let the tops of your soil dry out too for a few days. Good luck.

It's not from taking them outside, it's because you're watering them too much and you don't have enough airflow. Try watering from the bottom, but if you can't do that for some reason, try watering a little less and have a fan lightly blowing on your seedlings while they're still inside

Just put glue boards down under your lights. In a few days it will be covered in gnats and once all the adults are caught, you have no more breeders and they will disappear.

Within commercial hydroponic systems we frequently use hydrogen peroxide to disinfect the growing trays. During actual growing of the plants I have found one of the most effective ways to control mold and fungal growth as well as nats is controlling the water. If you are consistently growing more knats then beneficial plants water less to the make environment less favorable for them to thrive.
Ewell Acres.. I too also do hydro..I start/grow about 200 seeds/seedling every week..for my small group of customers.. I use 3% HydroPeroxide to pre soak my rockwool..and far less algae issues. All trays are pre wiped with it as well. Big positive difference!
Great tips. Thanks

Still recommend 4:1 ratio for fungus gnats? Because i saw one of your comments on another video that said 9:1. And is it ok to apply it from the top?
Hi Gary, What a GREAT video!! Thank you for sharing your experiment. Please if you can try to advise me... I purchased about 40 bags of organic potting soil on clearance in March and I have been planting petunia plugs like a mad women this past month. I believe I have about 2000 so far. The soil is sopping wet in the plastic bags, between thawing out and being out in the rain. I noticed small bugs in the soil along with tiny ants and I was thinking it might be okay because it's organic soil. I have always used fresh bags of miracle grow potting soil and never saw that before. I think I might have a problem brewing. I see plenty of gnats and I ended up putting the fly strips to catch them. Can I spray my little petunia plants with Hydrogen Peroxide and also water them with Hydrogen Peroxide? Or should I just try to water each and every tray from the bottom with the 4 to 1 ratio ? I am so afraid of killing these plants and I don't know what to do. I am growing them for neighbors, our local church and town. What would you do Gary?
So those are fungus gnats and they breed like crazy and the larva eat the roots. I would first let the plugs dry pretty well so soil is dry on top. Grab a flat and use peroxide as the 4:1 ratio. Test 1 flat see how they do at that ratio for like a week. Basically your testing the ratio. Keep up the strips. Are they outside or inside? I am assuming inside. Take the flats out too as often you can. And let the wind blow away the adults. Good luck

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN Thanks so much Gary. I feel so panicked! It's pretty windy out today so I will try to air them out a bit. (yes inside a small 20' greenhouse) As soon as they dry I will try the one tray at a time. Would any type of fertilizer help to kill fungus gnats? 20-20-20? You have such great video's. I just subscribed. Thank you again.
Hey Gary I just had a slight heart attack, moved up my seedlings and noticed each and every cell has mold/fungus growth within the soil. Looked through my previous transplanted ones and they to have it. Im starting to loose plants.. 4:1 peroxide should work for it right??
My Man Gary thanks for this video I was having issues with germination had that white fungus crap on some seeds and will use this on my soil to clean it up.....Someone give this man an award!!!
Good luck. Let me know how it goes. Dont over strength it either. 4:1 is plenty

Once I get my containers "refurbished" I plan to spray the contents really good with hydrogen peroxide before I add my seed started plants to the containers ..... some people put H2O2 in the water every time they water their plants. They say it makes the stems thicker and actually acts like a bit of a fertilizer. The one thing I also will do is rake the top couple of inches of soil in my containers a few times before I add my started plants to possibly disrupt any pest eggs near the surface. Thanks much for doing this experiment .... very interesting results. Hope you have the best year ever ..... take care.
Thanks Good luck to you too

Gray, great job as always. I new question: if I don't use all my diluted H2O2 in the sprayer, how long does it stay strong? One day? Two days? 10 minutes? Thanks!
Would you recommend 2:1 ratio for microgreens? I'm referring to spraying roots and tops every now and then to mitigate mold on certain seeds.
Id pick a ration and test it. Green leaves can be fragile. 2:1 may be fine but you might find you have to go higher and even if 2:1 was safe... a more dilute ratio is just as effective. You save money.

I appreciate your instruction in the scientific method. Fungi communities are important to nutrient and water absorption. Most fungus is NOT pathogenic. Soil drenches in garden should be followed by mychorhysal innoculation to restore balance.
For starting mix it is not as important. I do add in worm casting to help. I found the potting up, the next step really important for the fungi and soil life. The balance comes back fast at the speed microbes reproduce is crazy good.
Thanks had a problem last year with my house plants and gnats. Tried it all ready, will be keeping a supply ready.

I make little fungus knat traps by putting apple cider in little containers (GU glass pudding jars are great) with a good squirt of washing up liquid in the middle (like a yolk)! I've caught more than knats, those pesky little flies & other midges that get in the house love them too!
What a coincidence. I just used the 4:1 ratio yesterday on some of my passive hydropic herbs and lettuces. I let the root balls soak for 5 minutes and still saw the gnat larvae swimming around in the solution. I'm thinking I need to try the 2:1.
Hi J Bruce. I did have the yellow sticky traps and they caught a lot, but enough of the adults have gotten past them to keep the generations going.
Good stuff! Since I switched to T 5’s a couple of years ago from the old heavy ballast lights I have had trouble with damping off. I figure it’s because the T5’s are so much cooler running the mold gets a good start in my cool basement. I have bought some heat mats for this year and I will be sure to have hydrogen peroxide on hand to drench the soil with a 4 to 1 ratio of water to hydrogen peroxide if needed! Thank you so much for this good work. I used to use a fungicide called No Damp on my seedlings but it was banned in our province several years ago!
Klaus
I am working on a spray formula for spraying seedling tops and top of soil. That would probably be great for damping off disease. I just want to test it before I talk about it. What starting mix are you using.

Youd have to try it. I think I found 6 to 1 or 8 to 1 was safest for leaves. But you can try it. Just dont spray everything at once

Such a great video, thank you for sharing! I love how you did the experiment and then we got to see each stage, such a great idea for a video! I have found a couple fungus gnats around my succulents. Do you think I could maybe even do a light spray of a 4-1 ratio of water and hydrogen peroxide on the succulents themselves, to keep the fungus gnats away?
So leaf spray is a different ratio. I had to cut it by a lot more that 4. I have as summer video on it for spraying tomatoes. I would use that dilution. Or if you try 4:1. Spray the leaves and soil tops for 1 plant and wait 4 or 5 days for damage.

U can also hang some sticky fly tape laterally or lay them on something. All gone within a few weeks.
I have a planter with white mold that I have added 50/ 50 HD and water around the tomato plants. The mold goes deep to about 6/8 inches. Is it safe to eat the tomatoes with the dirt having mold ?
Glad to see people are trying out some of these things I have been using for years. The cinnamon might be a good one for you to try next, lol. Good examples!
It works. Ive been using it. I did a video years back.

Mr. Gary as always a wonderful video. One question, how long do we leave the plants in the solution before we take them out? Also u said to use a 4:1 ratio. Which is 4 cups of water and 1 cup of 3% peroxide is that correct?
Thats the ratio I am using. You can go 4:1 or 5:1. You should add enough that it all gets absorb. But if left sitting in extra. Just 30 minutes and dump out the excess.
I have used 3% directly as a soil drench for a long time with zero issues, on the contrary it boosts plants. One thing though, I always top water with it, carefully holding up the leaves or using a watering can with a thin nozzle, and water multiple times. Because I feel like for the H2O2 to penetrate and work quickly, you need to give plants a good flush from the top, and then after some water runs through the bottom you can soak them if you must. Since things like fungus gnats breed in the top layers of the potting mix, I would do the H2O2 from the top, but generously. It works for algae and fungi as well. With bottom watering, by the time the H2O2 would be wicked up into the top layers of the soil, it could very well lose most of its potency. Long story short, I water with it from the top, slowly, taking breaks to ensure you have saturation, and then do another round as a soak leaving the H2O2 in the tray for a bit You also want to be hearing the sizzling sounds coming from the potting mix. With some kinds of potting mix, you may even see extreme bubbling where the soil rises so much that it comes out of the pot a little bit.
Excellent. Thanks for the info. Good logic behind pouring it on top.

Hi Gary, great video as always. for fungi/mold problem would you leave the seed tray in the diluted h2o2 for the first 24h? or is it just like water them (20min or so then tossing the remainder water)? Thanks so much in advance

I just treated my seedlings with 4:1 water and h2o2. How long should I wait before I put them back under the grow lights?
I had some white fuzzy mold on mine I have been picking off and covering my seedlings with cinnamon. While doing this I noticed little clear larvae slipping around inside the soil 🤦🏽♀️ so I found this video and I am currently soaking them in the solution. I don’t have gnats flying yet! I have basil, spinach, oregano, collard greens, and pak choy, I hope this works I only have once of each. It’s my first time starting seeds. I hope it kills off the gnats because it looks like I will be infested if these things make it to maturity.

Awesome info - guess you can pour the 4:1 ratio on the soil surface (as a soil soak) to drench the soil thoroughly to kill any fungus gnat larvae that may eventually attack the roots ? Thanks
For this I do recommend from the bottom. I didnt contact the leaves with it. Though it might be fine. I am working on a top down video.

Okay so is it just me? But the tomatoes that didn't get any hydrogen peroxide are much taller and why wouldn't you be able to add this 4 to 1 ratio into your starting mix before you even transplant your seedlings?
You sure can do it to the starting mix early and clean it. Even at a higher strength. All the tomatoes are not the same variety, I was testing germination. That taller batch might have been some cherries that tend to grow fast.
Agreed, while the 2:1 did the "least worst", but the untreated definitely seemed better.
I think 4:1 is the wheelhouse for success.

I have a question about lighting. I use 6500K 23w CFL light bulbs in clamp lights and I detect an odor/smell. Should I be concerned?
Well not being there it is hard to say but that isnt abnormal. Often the metal has stuff on it. As long as the light receptacle is rated for the bulb, you should be fine. Also if the clamp light is so hot, you cant touch it, I would be concerned. I gets warm to hot but not so hot it cant be touched.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN Thank you for your reply. My clamp lights are rated for 150w and if some smell is ok, I feel my set up is ok. I built a grow box out of a cardboard box (it fits one 72 cell tray perfectly) several years ago and lined it with aluminum foil. The foil tears and was getting in tough shape. This year a relined the box with foil mylar rescue blanket which seems more durable. I think the smell seems stronger because it's a small enclosed space. Also I decided to remove the shields of the clamp lamps since I'm germinating pepper seeds and they need the warmth more than light at this time. That also reduced the smell. I also put LED lights on my birthday list. Thanks for all your information you share on your videos. I use many of your tips and practices in my gardening.
Hi there, is a 1/10 hydrogen peroxide solution fine to spray on young seedlings with soil that developed mold? Will the 1/10 concentration bother the small plant leaves?

Will this work on white flies? Nothing else is. Also, can compost piles breed white flies? Absolutely being overrun by them
Compost shouldnt as they prefer the sap of live plants. I think it would kill some of the flies h202.

Have you ever used BT-I to get rid of the nats. I will soak the granules 2 Tbls. to 1-1/2 cups water for a day then screen it clean and add 3 more cups of water and put it in a spray bottle and give that to my wife to spray the soil (she has 15 or so plans that must stay inside here in Maryland) over the winter . So far its worked. 10 years ago we had white flies in the early spring on the seedlings it took about 2 weeks before the last ones died but they started dropping in 2 to 3 days.

My mom recently gave me rose seeds to start for her and everything I’ve read says to use hydrogen peroxide to get rid of any risk of fungus since they are easily susceptible to diseases. Can I apply the 2:1 ratio when starting rose seeds?
Hydrogen peroxide in too high of concentration will fry the plants roots so you just need to make sure it's enough to attack fungus but not too much to damage roots/kill plants. I would start with Gary's radio of 4 parts water to 1 part hydrogen peroxide. If it's not enough and your plants are fine, bump it up a little.
I think Id start with 1:4 More isnt always better but I dont know for sure.

Can you see any reason why hydrogen peroxide could not be used to control fusarium and verticillium wilt in gardens? I have no problem starting tomato plants indoors, but my garden is hopelessly contaminated with fungi. Would you recommend drenching the soil at the base of newly transplanted tomato plants?

How many other beneficial microbes are killed by the peroxide?
Many. But you can replace them easily once the major issues are under control. Unless you added microbes to your starting mix... there really isnt any. You can add microbe back with worm casting, casting tea an other thing.
@@THERUSTEDGARDEN I always start all my seeds in reverse osmosis filtered rain water that has had Kelp meal added, although the Kelp meal doesnt offer much in the way of nutrition the logic is that the active growth hormones help the seedlings immune system development. The down side is that the environment created is also prime for trich,gnats, and some other issues, the good side however is the over 90% germination success.
That works. That is a really good rate.

I could see doing this for something that isn't tomatoes, because my experience is that tomatoes don't care about fungus or gnats. They grow quickly enough that they bust through the phase where fungus and gnats could damage them. I'd sooner try this for, say, snapdragons or portulaca, something that stays tiny for a long time, but by the same token they might be more easily harmed by the peroxide. I just spray copper stuff for fungus and spray and drench azadirachtin for gnats or mites.

You can plant 1-3 weeks earlier than the dates they give you if you have a small unheated greenhouse.
First off great experimebt Gary however, Based on your experiment:
What we know-
2:1 ratio better than 1:1 or straight H2O2
What we don't know-
Effect of different dilutions on infestation

Nothing seems to work on these fungus gnats. The neem oil seems to maintain a little control. Also, I don’t think I have an infestation. I have a habanero that it’s cotyledons are slightly curving down, wouldn’t say it was wilting. Could it be damage from gnats? Like I said there really isn’t many of them, they don’t even show up on the traps with Vaseline but they are flying around. Sometimes I don’t even see any. Plants look green and healthy except one bell pepper, it’s growing at a 90 degree angle at the top of the stem.
Hard to say what is going on with the pepper. Let it dry a bit between waterings. Gnats are the worst.

How much you will put in hydrogen peroxide solution 3% in 5 litres spray bottles of water in mls sorry I don’t understand cups
It is a ratio. So it is just equal parts as in the video. If I say 1 cup water to 1 cup h202. That would be 1 litre of water to 1 litre of h202.

Oh thank you!!! I was just looking for something to get rid of that white mold on my seed starts. It's kind of fuzzy. I don't have alot just a little bit on top of the seed starting mix. I put cinnamon on top of the seed starting mix yesterday. I wonder if I can still do the hydrogen peroxide water mix with the cinnamon on top. I dont think it would be a problem.
Mold you can also try letting the top of the mix stay dry a few days too. You should be able to use it from the bottom.

Would it work for fungus on roses?
I place my banana skins under the roses and place African marigolds all around them. The colours scream at each other but it works here in Ireland. Incidentally, I'd be known for my banana bread, ginger cake, potatoes au gratin and guacamole.
I have used 2 cups water to 1 tsp. of Peroxide, for the leaves. Also plants like marigolds around even help with bugs! Lady Bugs take care of any worms on the leaves!.

Hello does hydrogen peroxide kill endomycorrhizae that is on plant roots/in the soil? Thanks.
That I cant answer. I do know fungus gnats will eat the roots. H202 wont hurt anything that can be replaced or grow back.

White leaf rot on sapling pls advice
Sunlight helps kill fungus. Even just 30 minutes. Let soil surface dry too.
