To combat this mildew, it is said to use a hydrogen peroxide mix. What is the mix? I used about 20 oz to 1 gal of water. Am I close?
Pour a quart of standard 3 percent-strength hydrogen peroxide into a gallon-sized spray bottle. Add three quarts of water and shake the spray bottle to mix its contents thoroughly. If you're using a bigger or smaller bottle, adjust the measurements so you're mixing (1:3) one part hydrogen peroxide and three parts water.
They were planted 2 days ago and now they look like they have been zapped.

If you grew them from seed, they may be suffering from sunscald. In the future, this can be prevented by acclimated the seedlings before planting them out:

Two plants have gone into shock and I'm not sure what to do to revive them. Or do I just let the plants recover themselves?
No, not always, but this depends on how much shock the plant is in. Usually you can give the plant some extra TLC and it will come out of it fine.

There is a white sticky substance towards the end of some branches and inside some of the branches. Also, inside of the white substance there appears to be a small dark colored bug. What is going on?
It sounds like it is either mealy bugs or spider mites. These articles will help:

Why are the leaves of some of my flowering annual plants turning yellow?
It is either a watering or nutrient issue. Make sure that they are getting the right amount of water (soil should stay moist but not soggy) and give them some slow release fertilizer. That should fix it.
I read your article on Gray Mold, but did not understand what to do about it. . . how do you get rid of it?
Gray mold, or botrytis, is a fungal disease. Once this fungal disease starts, it will spread to the rest of the healthy plant. Botrytis thrives in humid, damp conditions with cool nights. Spores are spread by wind and splashing rain or water from one plant to another. You will need to keep some ventilation going and remove all dead and dying parts of the plant to deter the mold from growing. You can spray the plants with an approved fungicide (check the label) to keep the disease from spreading, but it will not stop already infected plants.
