Miracle Gro is easier. Put some eggshells and small amount of Epsom salts around tomatoes. Wrap stems with newspapers, 1.5-2" above ground if you have cutworms. Aluminum foil, placed around veggies deters aphids. Strips of copper also will kill slugs. Lettuce can be covered with floating row covers to keep bugs off. I've never used Hydrogen peroxide on a plant, but I'd hesitate to do so.
Hello this is Peggy. We have a large garden with tomatoes, corn, okra and other vegs. We water with miracle grow. We mix it in a bucket and pour it on or around the plants. When we plant the garden we "cast" 12-12-12 fertilizer. Enjoy your bounty.
Epsom salt is supposed too be great for veg. plants, lawns & shrubs directions on the bag). Inexpensive too.
Hydrogen peroxide is not a fertilizer. Compost is your friend, so start a small compost pile.
