i've heard that you can get oxygen to your plants roots by adding hydrogen peroxide to water prior to watering? how much do i add to how much water?

You cant overdue it with the store bought stuff as its usually 3-5% H2O2 and the rest distilled water. I used it and it helped greatly but thats also assuming you dont have any beneficial bacteria in your soil cause it will kill all those too...

The advice I have read is to use 3-5 drops per gallon. All H2O sold are reduced solutions.
