You may want to add an anti-bacterial to your nutrient solution. There are several available on the market. Find one that also includes mold killing and prevention.

Hydro stores most all carry them.

Stoney,

Just curious...Can one use a diluted solution of Hydrogen Peroxide 3% in the nutes to help combat fungus?

I've never used it. I stick with the stuff that's made for the job. It's only a few bucks and well worth it.
