I related question is why was it recommended in the past? 8-10 years ago here on the forum, H2O2 was frequently recommended to treat crown rot. There was no discussion about whether this was good or harmful, and it was standard advice, and not only here. I did treat one crown rotted Phal with it back then, with no ill effects to the healthy tissue (I know that anecdotal evidence is not scientific proof. Could be that the bottle wasn't new and the H2O2 had already slowly transformed into mostly water... I don't recall if the plant survived the crown rot)
