RE: Using Salt for Gardening & Yard

[Guest guest]

Salt will also kill unwanted grass & weeds. In the winter I buy the salt

pellets that are used in water softeners. Spread them over my driveway,

the rain melts them and they kill the grass/weeds. It will kill whatever

is growing so don't put it near other plants.

Using Vinegar for Gardening & Yard

 

1. Clay Pot Cleaning. Remove white salt buildup on old clay pots by

soaking them in full strength vinegar.

 

2. Kills Grass. Undiluted vinegar will kill grass between bricks and

sidewalk cracks.

 

3. Kills Weeds. Spray full strength on weeds - be careful not to spray

it on the surrounding grass as it will kill that too.

 

4. Deter Ants. Spray vinegar around doors, appliances, and along other

areas where ants are known to gather.

 

5. Keep Cats Away. Sprinkle vinegar on areas you don't want the cat

walking, sleeping, or scratching on.

 

6. Freshen Cut Flowers. Add 2 tablespoons vinegar and 1 teaspoon sugar

for each quart of water.
