How can I insert some form of O2 into the soil? And are there positives/negatives?

I was reading about inserting Oxygen into the root area of the plant. I have heard of benefits of this and I was personally wanting to try this but I do not quite know how to get the oxygen in the root area.

Any suggestions?

i dont remember where i saw it, but one user bought these big square pots that look like net pots. In it he had a light soiless mixture and an airpump hose blowing oxygen into the medium.

good luck

the most important thing is to have soil that drains well.

the second thing is to have holes at the bottom of the pot.

finally, some people use hydrogen peroxide mixed with your water.

that said, things like nutes, light, water and carbon dioxide will have a much greater effect on your plants than getting extra oxygen to the roots.

Any recommendation on which nutrients to get fast growth?
Lots o' nitrogen during veg, less nitrogen and a higher phosphorus during flower. Don't forget the Potassium while yer at it.
All you can do is feed. You cant get them to grow any FASTER. It's gonna take time.

what is calcium peroxide, you must mean hydrogen peroxide

you already approved of connie, so i know you like it, but have you grown with sensi to compare and justify the expensive leap.

This post has been retracted by thelastpirate. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I really try to be civil, have a good sense of humor, and not attack anyone without a sense of hilarity, Yet another retraction by me. I am officially an asshole.

if you put acid on cao2 it makes h2o2 but it can burn your plants faster and harsher so use calcium peroxide , imnot a liar ill just keep proving it maybe some of you that claim to know so much really dont know shit, but there are always exceptions.

people often think im stupid becasue i know things they dont and i wouldnt give out bad information on here. If anyone ever tries something i tell them to do and it kills their plant il send you a pack of whatever seeds youd like except mine :)

FUCK ME RUNNIN'!!! I stand corrected. I apologize for casting doubt on your statement. AND I apologize for the post I made last night without reading the thread in it's entirety. But you gotta know.........If you cite Wiki in your term paper, I'd bet you'll fail that class.

When I researched CAo2, I came up with a measurement of oxygen in arterial blood. My Bad.

You STILL need to cool out on your brags, fantastic stories of partners, huge grows, etc. It's those very statements in your previous posts and threads that formed my opinion of you, and my opinion remains unchanged. OK maybe it's a bit better, but not by a whole lot. Just go back and read some of the posts you made and threads you started. Then see if you'd give yourself any credibility.

But barring any evidence to the contrary, I'd say it would work to help increase O2 levels in the soil. It's used in agriculture for that very purpose, and I am gonna do a bit of research on this, maybe even try it. H2O2 and glyoxide would work as well. They all bleach thru oxidation.

This award had your name on it, but it would appear that I deserve it more!!

It would appear that I am the one who needs to chill. After taking my own advise and reprising your posts and threads, I have done you great wrong in a public forum, and I REALLY do apologize. your posts were informative, if not eloquent, and I could find nothing in them that could be considered misinfo. And I spent the time to read them all.
You WERE extremely rude in a couple, but given the present situation you were really nice compared to my behavior.
I had you confused with someone else.

I'm off to the store to get some humility.
