It was one week ago that I found those creepy crawly guys in my soil. All plants were evicted from the tent and banished to the greenhouse. I didn’t expect them to survive, and I was frustrated (and stoned), so I opened a new bottle of 3% hydrogen peroxide and split the 32 oz bottle between two plants. I directly poured it all over the exposed soil. It bubbled and gurgled and foamed up a bit, but I kept pouring and cussing them damn bugs. I pulled my big girl panties up and decided to move on and start fresh. New soil, new seeds, new solo cup…etc. Everything went well until I added a few sprinkles of worm castings on top of the soil. Once I watered the WC down, I could see them tiny little bitches crawling all over my soil again. WTF???
Anyway, back to my H2o2 story…
The 2 plants I doused with 16 oz of peroxide are looking great! I thought for sure I would kill them, but they really liked it. Anybody go crazy with peroxide before? What happened to your plants? BTW- the soil still has the bugs.
