    No bad mouthing here at all, I put some of this stuff in my girlfriends flower bed to kill the weeds after I put up a new fence between her and her back neighbor about 5 years ago and I laid it straight on the ground with no water and roofing tar paper on top. NOTHING would grow and hasn't since. I am about to do the same thing here soon in my front flower bed as you are because it has rock in it and I will mix it up and spray it in there to kill the weeds and grass growing up in it. This is a great idea and a lot cheaper than Round up or other weed killers. It does work great and kicks ass on the weeds and anything it touches. By the way, Great video and I like your Flag out front.

    I get free brine everytime my water softener recharges. Just drain the discharge hose down my gravel driveway a few times in the growing season. My driveway holds most of the brine without runoff issues in my grass, dandelion and clovered up weedy lawn.
    Works for me. Lol
    I stay well away from any plants I value.
    Nowhere near the vegetable garden or hedges.

    Hello, salty water or saline or brine as your refer to it is not enough. You need to break the surface tension of the saline water by adding in 20% or 30% vinegar, also a natural product. This increases the soil Ph [acidity] and kills plants, while the salt merely increases the salinity and kills roots and prevent seeds from germinating and building roots. There's no need to filter down the salt in water. The salt is intended to kill the roots. You can drop the salt down as salt rocks and let it slowly disintegrate by the moisture in the air during the nighttime or through rain over a period of days/weeks. Though saline salt water is more fast acting. The high salinity from salt and acidity from vinegar will keep weeds down for months if not years depending on how much you've used. Personally i dropped a entire 10 lb bag of salt on a 5 square feet area of my drive way and then watered it down with a gallon of 30% vinegar and that area has not had any growth for years now. I used roundup and various other chemicals to try to kill that patchy area, and while it killed the growing plants, new growth always returned rapidly within weeks. Natural rain will eventually move the high salinity and high acidity deeper underground or away to other plants who will take it up as nutrients and due to the lowered contents it will not harm these plants. This is a good environmentally friendly treatment you should do every year before the summer begins.

      I just purchased a new rental property and the back lawn seems like it's never had maintenance. Crab grass and dandelions have taken over. If I use your method for the entire lawn will my grass grow back without the weeds if at all?

      @@thelovelydrkeyx3250 The mix of vinegar, salt and some washing up liquid will kill everything. Make sure you choose a sunny period as it will be more effective. 2-3 days and it will all be dry.
      If safe, you can then just burn the dry bits.
      Yes, it will grow back eventually, depending on the strength of your mixture but without seeding, it will be patchy. Hope this helps.

      salt will reverse the effects of osmosis and draw moisture out of the plants via the roots, killing them. Plants with a chance to survive will be ones that are less-dependent on a small-area network of roots to draw moisture.

    Salt will kill everything. It’s also hard on concrete if you use just the salt and don’t do a mix. Animas like deer and squirrels also like the taste of the salt in the soils so consider that wherever you spread it.

    hey buddy! nice video, very thorough. you are right about roundup, ive just used a mix of salt and bleach to kill established weeds in the driveway which drains into a main road. as long as you are not using it to treat weeds in the bare earth i think we're alright
    no worries on the editing, you will pick it up as you go along 😊

    Three pints of crystal salt ( not pellets) in 5 gallons of water stir to assist add add 2 pints of vinegar ( 25%) spray at sundown or cloudy. Make sure salted area does not drain off during rain onto planted areas.Promote this method, put Monsanto out of bu sines.

    The haters are often kids with nothing better to do. I used to have a relatively popular YT channel...have to get used to the hate, but also realize often times they're just ten year olds with access to their mom's puter. YT also has a word-blocking option now, so you can censor offensive words for the most part, comes in handy. I commented on your last video in this series...to sum up, this works. I just did it in dry form. Cheers. P.S. TRUMP! ;)
