Love this. Been so windy here 🇬🇧 every day this year so you can't use a standard weedkiller safely. I would much rather use these ingredients anyway. Cheers 👍
Hope it works out, vines can be a pain may need multiple applications to kill the roots if it’s resilient. Luckily this stuff is cheap and can be made up easily whenever you need it.
Great question, so I looked into this and according to the AI this mixture should not significantly deteriorate and the effects should be minimal. I’m guessing the salt is not high enough quantity. The vinegar I honestly think would be less concerning then they salt just because it’s generally considered a safe and milder alternative on standard household items. Just my 2 cents tho. Hope this helps.
Definitely NOT PERMANENT. I used 75% vinegar, along with salt and dawn dish washing liquid. Killed the surface grass and plant coverage quickly and completely. However, after a week, everything started growing again.
Ohh wow 75% vinegar. I wish I could get my hands on stuff that strong. I’m not sure if it possible to get permanent just cause grass and what not always grows back. But, I have best luck with multiple applications. When the stuff that starts to show signs of regrowth I hit it again and works much better.
"STOP Using Chemicals" *uses chemicals* Just because it doesn't say it's for weed killing, doesn't mean it isn't chemicals you're putting into your soil.
Boron is a naturally occurring mineral. Technically all “minerals”are considered chemical compounds. The stuff is literally made out of a non toxic naturally occurring mineral+salt+oxygen. And it labeled as non toxic. If that makes you uncomfortable feel free not to use it.
Just used. Normal vinegar.....salt.... Bit of dishwashing liquid.HOT SUNNY DAY..
Everything..
DEAD.
not a problem 👍👍👍 MARVELOUS
Awesome. Sunny weather seems to help a lot. 👍
The soap helps to stick to the vegetation, so it doesn't blow or wash off.
That’s a great point. Definitely don’t want to forget the soap

Glad you like it! Hope it works out great for your needs :)
On a very hot and sunny day, the process will accelerate significantly. If you spray in the morning, it will turn brown and dry by the afternoon.
Great point. I have noticed that the sun definitely helps speed up the process and makes it worth waiting for nice weather.
I’ve got some nuisance vines around my house gonna give this a shot.

Doesn't the vinegar (and maybe the salt as well) deteriorate limestone driveway gravel?
