Connecting the dots for 6/24/2012

The Easiest Way to Get Rid of Weeds Without Harsh, Synthetic Chemicals

Every summer we wage a war on weeds. Instead of using commercial weed killer to eliminate those pesky weeds, we looked for more eco-friendly and cheap solutions and put them to the test to see which was best. Here are the results.

In this experiment, I tried 3 solutions: boiling water, white vinegar, and vinegar with some salt mixed in, and sprayed these to two areas with different kinds of weeds.” Get more here: The Easiest Way to Get Rid of Weeds Without Harsh, Synthetic Chemicals.
