How to Use Vinegar as an Organic Garden Weed Killer: 3 Recipes, Different Strengths & Use Examples
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ย. 2024
- This is a complete guide to using 3 main ingredients to make 3 different strengths of organic garden vinegar weed killers. I go over the recipes, explain how the ingredients work, show you how to use lime to neutralize sprayed areas, and show you before and after usage examples.
Your recipes can vary as you wish. This is what I use in my gardens and on my homestead, with each recipe becoming stronger for more difficult weeds. These recipes create a 23% acidic spray. You can use 1 gallon of water instead of 1/2 gallon of water to make a 15% acidic spray to stretch your budget.
Check out my Two Minute TRG Gardening Tips playlist: • Two Minute Vegetable G...
Recipe 1:
1 gallon 30% acidic vinegar
1/2 gallon of water
You can find 30% white vinegar at Home Depot and online
Recipe 2
1 gallon 30% acidic vinegar
1/2 gallon of water
1/2 cup of liquid soap or detergent
Mix the water and soap first before adding the vinegar
You can add more soap if you wish up to 1 cup
Recipe 3 (I rarely use this)
1 gallon 30% acidic vinegar
1/2 gallon of water
1/2 cup of liquid soap or detergent
1 to 1 1/2 cups of Epsom Salt
Mix the water and soap first before adding the vinegar

Thank you! My Father had given me the recipe years ago before he passed away and I forgot the proportions. This really helps!

I used a mix of 1 gallon of 7.5% pickling vinegar for $3.50 ( they wanted $30 for 50% vinegar ) + 1 cup of table salt and 1 tablespoon of Dawn dish soap - I sprayed on my weeds and the next day 75% of them had turned brown. I resprayed the second day and they all died. Very effective and very cheap = win win ....

I love using vinegar for weeds around the yard. Didn't know about the 30% or the soap addition. Gonna have to try that out. Thanks for the tips!
Yep. Good like in your garden

Not sure if I've posted this before, apologies if I have. In Australia, you can buy "double strength" white vinegar at the grocery stores which is 8-10% acetic acid.
I do garden maintenance part-time and use this undiluted to spray on and kill weeds.
I've done side by sides and it works just as well as the glyphosate-based weedkillers I used to apply and no nasty chemicals.
Great info in this video Gary and I'm glad you mentioned the problems with adding salt to the mix. Cheers! 👍
Do you mix it with anything else or straight vinegar?
@@Nagggl Just straight, no dilution and no salt like some suggest.
@@ausfoodgarden thanks mate!I was looking at organic weed killer at bunnings, they have something called called "Slasher" but this double strength vinegar from coles/woolies works out about half the price per litre compared to slasher.
Just the post I'm looking for. I've bought the same 8% vinegar from Coles. Did that vinegar stop the weeds from growing back and did it damage the soil to nearby plants that you wanted to keep?
@@oot007 There will always be weeds growing. Same as Glyphosate it kills weeds but more will grow. The vinegar quickly breaks down in the soil so doesn't have an area of effect.
Excellent. My yard is mulch/ food forest. So didn't want to use toxic weed killers.
This works and you can always toss lime on the dead remains later

This is a God sent video. I was just spraying weeds in my driveway with regular salad vinegar. I saw Walmart sells a cleaning type of vinegar and I was wondering if it was more concentrated than the salad vinegar. I will definitely try your recipes.
Yep that cleaning type is usually much higher. I get mine at Home Depot or online

This is great. I usually just use boiling water for weeds in my driveway but the vinegar looks like a good candidate for larger jobs.
I like it

This will be on my to do list tomorrow. Just finished mulching the backyard so around the raised beds I've got some weeds poking thru. I've never heard of using Epsom salt which I've got a ton of.
Good luck. Its just the high concentration of salt that does it.

Agree with you Gary great man who sharing good gardening tips us , happy gardening
Awesome tip with the soap. I use the 30% vinegar and it works like a charm. Will dilute a little and save some money. Thank you!
Yep. 20% should be as effective.

Excellent! I'm going to try this on the horsetail I'm fighting, thanks!
Thank you for the details on this video. I sprayed my weeds with 10% vinegar no water added and weeds died off. My front yard is full of weeds. How can I plant a new grass and when to do it. Thanks
The rain should wash a lot of the vinegar away or put down some lime afterwards to neutralize it.

How long does this formula last?? How often do you need to use this weed killer ??
I got a recipe from another site. Followed the directions. The results were poor.

Can you use this technique to clear a piece of ground to put a garden? How many times to spray to kill grass & weeds good to put garden in? How many times to spray before using lime? After you spray & like, how soon can you put in garden?
To clear a space. I lay down 2 layers of card board and either mulch or compost it, depending if it is a walking or growing sections. You can use lime a couple days after the area is dead. I would use it to clear out a space for a garden. Too much acid.

Did you mean to say that you would NOT use it to clear a space because of too much acid? You are not clear in your reply.
Thanks for the tips! I want to use this on my gravel driveway but also have large trees alongside that have mulch beds that are starting to show weeds. Is this solution too weak to harm the trees or should I keep it away from the trees and do something else to control the weeds in my tree mulch beds?
it should not harm mature trees.

Never knew this. Definitely will use this. Txs
My issue with using vinegar for weed killer is, it kills the weeds but in a couple weeks they come back. And the stronger vinegar is pretty pricey. The weak regular vinegar didn’t work for me.
I bought something like this from Amazon. It did work. It just got expensive.
Better than roundup bro...plus you wont die.
You can get the bottle for $25 or less at Home Depot. And 1 gallon of water. It brings the cost down and it is effective.

How far away from your plants you do want would you spray number 1? Thank you. I have some rock garden borders I have planted perennials, biennials and annuals, along with vegetables. I need to spray the pokey weeds in between the plants. Thank you Gary, a great video again, very informative
It is a contact killer so if some other roots absorb it, it wont go through their system. You can get pretty close.

Thank you for the video. I was wondering if this kills the bugs?? Good and Bad.
It won't once dried. But the acid would kill insects.

What about using muriatic acid? Instead of vinegar? It’s corrosive and potentially toxic but use to use it to keep tropical fish acidic and is used to acidify pools a bit
That I just don't know. I havent used it.

Adding Epsom salt has never made sense to me because it's used to help plants in the garden... so I don't use it. I also don't add water. It's just 6% vinegar with several TBSP of Dawn dish soap... it has to be shaken periodically to make sure it's mixed. Works great, except I don't have much luck with dandelions and other plants with long taproots. It kills the leaves, but they still come back. As soon as you kill the flowers or buds on dandelions, they immediately go to seed and become a threat of spreading. So I use a tool to pull them out, instead. I also make sure to pull the flowers so bees are not impacted, too!
Its the concentration of 1 cup in a gallon. That creates a chemical SALT issue in the soil that effects plant roots.

Can make it proof, tried today a 15% vinegar solution with some soap. After a hour the differnce in colour was clear to see, in the evening evething I sprayed was dead!
It works. Soak the roots too to help keep them from sending up more leaves.

Can I use this on my pavers? I’m trying to kill all the weed that’s growing in between each paver? Also how long does this last for? How often will I be spraying this in a 3 month span?
Thank you for sharing.

I chopped down the weeds with a weedwacker and plan on spraying this on the remains to kill it off. Will I be able to plant the same year if I wait a few weeks?
You can. If you are worried you increased acidity, drop some lime in the space.

Hi Gary I'm not so sure why the Epsom salt. The soap I'm assuming your using as a surfactant. I use the same 30% vinegar for the perimeter around the house but I apply Epsom salt to the whole garden to add magnesium and sulfur (8 lbs to 800 total sq. ft.) because my tests come back low in sulfur and magnesium and it has never caused a problem. While I have your ear what do you use to control your slugs. The garden is high in Iron, Copper, and Zinc so the treatments I'm familiar with aren't practical. I'm also curious about which service you use for soil tests I have been using A&L eastern but I've had problems with them this year. Thanks Mike from Bowie, P.S. I read about the farm where you volunteer, and found out your on the board of directors I hope they appreciate your talents and dedication.
Its the quantity of table salt or epsom salt in the mix. The quantity creates a bad root environment, due to heavy concentration of chemical SALTS in the soil, it dehydrates roots, stops nutrient pick up and other stuff. ES is good in low doses but not at 1 cup in a gallon. Hopefully you are doing 1 or 2 tablespoons of ES per gallon of water for feeding. Thanks so much. Oh and the soap also, at high amounts kills the leaf too. I haven't tested this soil believe it or not. Since I have a ton of compost, I learned slow and steady. If a big issue comes up, Ill do a soil test. Freetown Farm is a lot of fun.

I am a soapmaker/gardener. I can control what kind of fats go into the soap, is there any in particular that would be more beneficial in the soap that I use in the garden? I love your book, read it cover to cover!!! Thanks
Thanks so much on the book. Very appreciated. That is just Castile type. Very pure. The harsh detergents do more damage to roots but it is the basic soapy coating on leaves in a high concentration that works. Maybe something heavy soap wise.

It will only damage the foliage does not effect root systems! It will need to be re applied every so often vinegar doesn't damage root systems of broad leave weeds etc. You want to do this in spring when it's young just germinating you will get more success rate than matured durn mid summer. A 20% is more than enough but still won't harm the root systems so will come back over time. It is a good and slightly dangerous approach if you don't know what your doing around plant borders, veg plots the grass as can make it non habitable for growing any plants using salt with the vinegar.
Thanks

20% is about right. You can cut it lower. Just depends. The key is to really soak the leaves. 10% will burn leaves too.

Not to argue but Epsom Salt is Magnesium, not salt. What makes this addition effective?
It's in a class called chemical SALTS. Sodium Chloride or table salt gets its nickname from being in the class. Magnesium Sulfate or Epsom Salt is in that category. It is confusing a bit so it is a SALT but not table salt.
@@THERUSTEDGARDEN thanks!
I assume when using salt you dissolve it in a warm water first? Also how did this sprayer hold up against vinegar and salt? Does it get clogged or do seals disintegrate over time from vinegar? What brand sprayer ?
The sprayer is fine with these 2 as they really dissolve.

Will this damage the soil, or is it safe to grow food after spraying a garden bed with this?
I would spray directly in planting beds only cause it can increase acidity but around the yard, in garden paths, along edges of raised beds, I am not worried about it.

I had rocks put in my flower beds last year and planted perennials to make it low maintenance. They put down weed cloth before the rocks, but I don’t think they did a very good job. This spring I have grass & weeds everywhere. I had some perennials that didn’t make it through the winter, so I need to replace them. Can I replant after spraying 30% vinegar if I don’t use salt or epson salt?
drop some lime across the area and water it in. That neutralizes acidity.

Will it get rid of black berry vine?
Will this mixture eradicate horsetail?
Thank you as always Gary. Do you think it would work on bamboo? Preferably cutting the stalks down to ground level and spraying inside of the shoots to kill the root nodes? Possibly adding an extra step of drilling a hole down into each shoot before spraying?
Nuclear bomb recommended. 🤪
So acidifying the soil and salting it with ES would work but I think you'd render the whole area unplantable. Sorry

@@gardengirl2420 You are soo right! It's the bane of all lawn and garden existence.
@@bassmastadee8246 and not the best way to meet the neighbors down the street when it comes up in their yards!!! 😆
@@THERUSTEDGARDEN Hopefully by being controlled with only pouring/spraying the solution inside the hollow shoots, after cutting them to ground level, won't cause too much adverse effects to the soil. Like you said, any minimal overspray/spillage should dissipate within a couple of years which should work out perfectly considering I have wood chips covering my entire backyard. I had 23 trees cut down and am using the chips to hopefully bring my concrete clay and sand dirt to some sort of semblance of topsoil in 2-3 years so I can grow grass. Wish me luck! And by the way , I used your discount in purchasing mushrooms from Northspore to inoculate in the woodchips too!!! Thanks as always!

That doesn’t seem like it would be enough to make a difference.
The little effect vinegar can have on soil pH is very short lived. It's broken down fairly quickly by sunlight and bacteria.... similar to how glyphosate breaks down fairly quickly.... except glyphosate actually works 😂
Bind weed is my enemy right now. That root system is massive! Will never use round up. What effect on tree roots where the truck is 15 feet away?
I don't think this would effect trees. Its not about what is absorb. It is the contact to the acidity.

I think you will be stuck with dealing with it physically at first. Weed wack it, pull it, and chop it. The heavy-duty chemicals will not even hurt the older waxy leaves. Then when you see new light green growth you might could hit it with the vinegar solution. It will eventually give up. It has a tendency to leave roots and pop up close to the base of plants. You will have to hand pull that. It takes time but I have removed it from a heavily covered acre.
@@mikeyfoofoo Thank you. That sounds like a good strategy. The fact that you had success is very encouraging!
Have you tried it with Bermuda grass? Which recipe would be the most ‘successful’? I know that getting rid of Bermuda completely is next to impossible 😂. (Short of a nuclear bomb) But, to control garden spread
So you'd be giving it a good soak to acidity the roots. In theory it would work. Just not sure how much you'd need.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN I’d probably need an industrial size bottle for each square foot! 😂. They say their roots grow as deep as 30’!! Lol!! But, seriously, I think I will just give it a good soak with a high %
I would try watering the grass, if it has been dry... Then, cover with a dark colored heavy poly tarp..
Make sure No Light gets under there, while it Grows itself out. Starves. If it is hot and sunny, could really work for you.
If the grass is dormant, like in cool season... Does not matter if you cover it. Does nothing.
