ONLY use the peroxide if they show signs of algae or root root, or slimey roots.

Spoken like a true doctor...LOL..why wait to get something when you could prevent it in the first place?

how's that?,,,,You can not "cure" pythium. It is a bacteria. It is always present.
You can prevent and "cure" the symptoms of a pythium infection. In this case, "cure" simply means ridding the plant of infectious symptoms. The actual bacteria will still be present.
The key is to make your root zone hospitable to the roots, not to bacteria, usually caused by low oxygen levels in the solution or high temp solutions (which also causes low O2 levels).
Cool nutrient solution temps (68-73 F) and proper aeration will not allow pythium to grow.This is how you get rid of slimey roots and keep them healthy!

If you get the concentrate 33% I put 3ml/gallon when I change it and then half that everyday. It disipatates rather quickly

Roots dont look to bad. I prefer a biological approach. Maybe throw in a little Mycorrhizal. It will survive in your res on the roots AND help your yield.

...sorry if i said that before.

here is one of many products available:

It's the same thing except the drugstore stuff is only 3% and full of crap and if you do get that then you have to put ten times the amount.
