seeds Germination - Root Fungus (?)

[Ares Schizas]

I grow back-up seeds in Zip-Lock Bags. The first roots started to pop out. In most of the popped seeds, I noticed little "hair" around the roots, that look like a fungal growth.

Now, I do know that I can get a 0,3% Peroxide Solution and make a 0,03% peroxide solution. The problem is that the Peroxide brands available from the local Drug Stores have other manure added in them, like oils and stuff. Will these solutions work or I need pure 0,3% Peroxide and Water solution?

Any other things that I can use?

Those little "hair(s)" are most likely (absolutely) part of the root.  Skip all that peroxide stuff and plop those little babies in soil !   Hooo Rah !!!
 
Happy Growing !

Yes part of root structures

A little fuzz on your root won't hurt

 

[Ares Schizas]

I don't know. Most roots have them, but some roots don't. They seem to originate from the root but there is definitely a fungus species that looks like this.

MNXR250R, should I not wait until the stem and the cotyledons are developed before planting them?

Here are some pictures of the seeds:

Jalapeno

Cayenne

This is normal and you want them planted before you see cotyledons. I throw them in as soon as I see the root peek out.

 

[MNXR250R]

Agreed.  Once they sprout, move them to soil or whatever media you plan to use.
 
Nice pics !!   
 
Happy Growing,

Thank you all! <3 I will plant them as soon as possible!

If it's fungus then it's mycorrhizae. I would say those are healthy roots. You could leave it till the cotys pop too, I don't think it really matters

I seems that you and everyone else who said the same were correct!
