Hydrogen Peroxide Reducing Hypoxia in Germinating Seeds

Reducing Hypoxia Risk When Germinating Seeds

Hypoxia is a state in which the level of life sustaining oxygen content has dropped below a critical level. The term may be used in terms of medical pertaining to the human body, skin and in the surrounding ambient air. The term may also be used in context of the environment and bodies of waters like lakes, rivers and oceans. When talking about the environment, an area that is sometimes over looked is the oxygen content in the soil.

Yes, the soil has oxygen content and is essential for seeds to germinate and plants to sprout new growth every season. Studies show that seeds that have reached a state of hypoxia (which is the major factor in seed germination failure) have a 70% better chance in germinating when exposed to hydrogen peroxide after a state of hypoxia had been detected.

Help Your Outdoor Roots Breathe

Applying H2O2 To Outside Gardens

It doesn’t matter where you live or what type of plant you grow, if you are growing plants they need oxygen. Plants primarily uptake oxygen through the root system, and additionally require a good fresh supply of oxygen during the night.

Winter rains, especially in the northern half of the country, tend to compact the soil which may leave your roots starving for a breath of fresh air come springtime. Use our 34% H2O2 Hydrogen Peroxide to immediately increase the available oxygen as well as loosening up the soil and allowing good airflow to the roots.

Increase The Oxygen Potential In Your Soil

Grab a 5 gallon bucket and fill it up with water. Now tap water is fine for this application only because we are not going to be sealing it up. Measure up 10 oz. 34% H2O2 Hydrogen Peroxide and pour it into the bucket with the water. Simply pour this solution in the soil of your outdoor garden areas and flower beds, targeting the root zones especially. Using a watering can to help disperse the solution evenly, allowing maximum coverage. At this mild concentration beneficial microbes will thrive.

When adding to hydroponic reservoirs or bare root plants a 3-4 ml per gallon is used because the roots are exposed with no buffer. Normal soil gardens can handle a slightly higher concentration as the hydrogen peroxide will be reduce immediately on contact of the soil. Use caution if you are growing sensitive ornamentals or the likes.  A little goes a long way and using less will still have a positive effect on the oxygen levels around the root zones.

Using Hydrogen Peroxide As A Soil Amendment In The Garden

Low Oxygen From Over Watering

Low oxygen in the soil can develop in water-logged soils, do to heavy rainfall, improper irrigation techniques or over watering. We hear the term “killing your plants with kindness”.

For example, when rain guns are used on unstable soils, sand, silt or limestone, soils run together creating a seal that is impervious to oxygen and carbon dioxide. Typically, soils that are low in organic matter are more difficult to aerate naturally.

Plant roots must have adequate oxygen levels  to facilitate plant respiration drawing nutrient, minerals as well as liquid water up into the plant.  Plants use oxygen and water in a number of ways.  Oxygen’s affinity for electrons plays a key role in the process.

Hydrogen Peroxide In The Body

Hydrogen Peroxide Found In The Body

Too much of just about anything thing isn’t good. Except possibly Love and Truth.  Excessive hydrogen peroxide can damage the body.

Our body produces catalyses which neutralizes unused hydrogen peroxide produced by the body. Hydrogen peroxide has been detected in freshly voided urine.

Researchers theorize the hydrogen peroxide may help prevent Continue reading “Hydrogen Peroxide In The Body”

Does 35% Hydrogen Peroxide Freeze?

35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide Does Freeze

Hydrogen 2o2 35% H2O2 should not freeze in a common home freezer.  If you purchased from someone else and your 35% Hydrogen Peroxide freezes it’s NOT 35% H2O2.

35% Hydrogen Peroxide will freeze at or below a temperature of  -34 C. or -29..2 F.  An average home freezer temperature range is between 32 F and 0 F.

20% Hydrogen Peroxide will freeze at or below -15 C. or 5 F.  5 F. falls in the range of a typical home freezer so if your Hydrogen Peroxide freezes in your freezer its not 35%. Our 35% Hydrogen Peroxide will not freeze in your freezer.

Below is a chart showing hydrogen peroxide freezing and boiling points. Continue reading “Does 35% Hydrogen Peroxide Freeze?”

Hydrogen Peroxide And Its Ability To Neutralize GMO Glyphosate

Hydrogen Peroxide Neutralizing Binding Toxicity of Glyphosate (Roundup®) In Genetically Modified Crops and Non-Genetically Modified Crops

How Genetically Modified (GM) or (GMO) Foods Effect Our Health.

Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) is the term used when referring to crops which have had their D.N.A. genetically spliced. The most common food crop in America to have undergone this gene splicing with a chemical herbicide called glyphosate or Roundup®, is corn. Glyphosate is deadly to plants by means of blocking the syntheses of enzymes essential to plant cell growth. So, genetically modified organisms have been modified to resist dying when sprayed with lethal doses of the deadly herbicide RoundUp®. Statistics today say Continue reading “Hydrogen Peroxide And Its Ability To Neutralize GMO Glyphosate”
