depends on the % of the H202 if it's regular storebought it's probably 3% and you could do about 10/90 h202/h20 ratio.

I was wondering that also, but about 1/2-1 inch from bottom of a 24 oz spray bottle of H2O2, that's obout 3 oz. The rest water, works for me.

Use 1:10 of 3% peroxide at the most. It isn't really necessary though.

Its not hurting anything either. For 50 cents a bottle why not? can't be too safe.

I have noted more contamination when too much peroxide is used. I think (please note the use of the word 'think') that too high of a concentration of H2O2 damages the mycellium and allows contamination to take hold. Just based on my non-scientific observations though.

yeah, too high of a concentration will hurt the mycelium, but if its diluted, my can't hasn't seen any drawbacks.

I disagree...(mind you I'm another newbie myself.)
In my last grow, I had one cake showed signs of cobweb mold. It was the only cake I had at the time so I soaked that sucker in a 3% solution of H2O2 without adding any extra water. The result was great, the cake produced as much mush as I've come to expect from reading other growers results. Just my humble opinion...
