Hydrogen Peroxide is a sterilant mostly used in laboratories and other similar places where high standards of hygiene are required!!

Recently Pioneers of green house cultivation have started promulgating the use of Peroxide or better Silver Based hydrogen Peroxide as Soil Sterilant.

It provides good control on Soil Borne Fungus and to some extent some weak, Less established weeds, But Its Effect on Nematodes is less Known,

There is definitely a visual plant health difference in crop grown in sterilized beds and unsterilized beds,

Here is How you can Use Silver Based Peroxide or Even Peroxide:

1. Wet the beds with neutral pH water up-to 75% Water Holding Capacity of Soil.

2. In irrigation water mix @ 35 ml Silver based peroxide/peroxide in 1 litre of water.

3. Do not mix any chemical with this, as this solution is highly reactive.

4.Apply @ 1litre/ m2.

5 Leave the field undisturbed for 1 day.

Field is sterilized , make sure you use disease free seedling for planting as the efficacy of of fumigant vanishes after application and it will no more be effective,

Hope you find this useful..
