Article Synopsis
- Hydrogen peroxides are used in greenhouses for cleaning and disinfecting irrigation water to prevent issues like algae and duckweed growth.
- A study compared various peroxide formulations, revealing that those with Ag stabilizers were the most stable and effective against algae, while those with performic acid showed the best results against multiple microorganisms.
- Plant safety tests indicated that while Ficus benjamina showed no toxicity at low concentrations, higher dosages could reduce growth, and herbaceous plants were at risk even at low peroxide levels.
