I used 2 and half cups of hydrogen peroxide in 5 gal of water and dipped the roots into the bucket and then put them back in their regular buckets. Will this harm the plant ?

Hope you cleaned the original bucket before putting the 'cleaned' plant back in or you wasted your time...besides killing what was on the surface.
May want to look into a few drops of bleach if root rot starts...use it sparingly.

Basic 3% stuff. Added 2 and a half cups to 5 gal of water and dipped the roots in it.

You may be able to attract and kill some bugs with some simple safer traps too...

In a small bowl, mix a half cup of warm water plus two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, a tablespoon of sugar, and about six drops of liquid dish soap. Gnats will be lured in by the sugary mixture, but once they dip in for a drink, the sticky dish soap will trap them.

Oh and don't forget to find and try to stop where they got in...lol

Just use yellow sticky traps and stop overwatering. I don’t know why people go to such extreme measures to kill gnats.

That's for fruit flies. Fungus gnats don't give no fucks about that stuff
That's not how gnats work man. One adult female will lay at least 100 eggs. If you have 20 adult females it's way too late for just sticky tape

Dumbest shit I went to 3 places and they all say they only sell fly tape in the summer. And the fly tape will not work on the eggs eh cause they don't fly

Gnatrol. Only thing that keeps them out of my aero gardens. And if I don't they will infest my coco in no time
Order the sticky sheets. They are like 5x7. Cut half way through a sheet and then put your stem into the cut so the sheet is perpendicular to the stem. Not sure if that makes any sense but it's most effective

Well damn. Ignore my obviously misinformed advice. I thought he was dunking rockwool in h2o2 water. It seemed wild, but I'm desensitized to the term "hydro" now.

Yup hard to get anything here. Maple syrup is in abundance though.
