Simply dilute hydrogen peroxide with water (one part hydrogen peroxide to four parts water) and use it as a soak or spray on the roots and foliage.
This treatment helps improve oxygen flow to the roots and can also aid in the removal of dead roots, promoting healthy new growth
Be sure to use it sparingly, as too much can damage delicate plant tissues.
