H202 Msiting right after casing?

I have read alot about the wonders of h202 spraying to stop mold. Or at least slow it down, but what about as a preventative measure, like after casing if I were to mist the top layer with h202 in order to kill any contam spores that may be thinking about colonization?
Was just a thought I had while sitting here.

thats what i use it for... H2O2 fights bacterial contamination, and wont hurt your fruits...
I use H2O2 as a preventative measure in everything...
The water i use intially to moisten the bottom of the casing, the sub, and the casing layer.
Also for my coolmist and spray bottle..
happy trails and GL

Nice I was thinking of adding a bit to my casing. As well as misting, good shit, I will also be using a small amount of h202 in my work, everything we can do to fight contams is a good thing.

H2O2 does inhibit growth in molds as well as myc so watch the concentrations and frequency of use around myc. FAE's are our first line of defense and keeping the areas fairly clean is your best bet and it keeps things natural.

Oh Hyphae I totally agree and I know it would inhibit myc I was thinking of a small (like 3% of my total liquid or so depending on what I can find out about allowable levels) amount in my casing and a light mist right after casing before myc appearance on the top. That way, should some type of spore land during the casing process it would be arsed out.

I'm gonna try misting with H2O2. How much H2O2 should I put in the spray bottle with water? Or do you do 100% H2O2?

i use about 10% H2O2
I dilute 3%! 10% is concentrated! (Way)

Yea, too much is way bad. And it doesn't HELP any more than a 2 or 3 percent dilution rate either.

okay, when you all say you dilute it to 3% or 10%, does that mean you take 3% H2O2 that you get at the store, and then dilute that to a (3 part H202/water mixture) to 97 parts water? because a 10% pure H2O2, hehe, ya, use that shit on your cuts :P
