Does hydrogen peroxide kill myco or any other beneficial organisms for that matter? I want to know because i was thinking about putting a little myco in my soak water to give the seed a little jump start.

Hydrogen Peroxide 3% or < is a strong enough oxidizer, and will kill any living organism. Dilute it with water and it just becomes water with an extra oxygen ion.

well said linus, id like to add-------- putting myco in seed soak has no value anyways. it takes a while for the product to become active -ON THE ROOT MASS OF THE PLANT.

That makes sense. I just did a little google search and basically the only reason the myco latches onto the roots anyway is because of the plant giving it a supply of carbohydrates. I guesss a seed soak wouldn't really give it any motivation to innoculate the seed.
