How to Create a Natural Weed Killer with Baking Soda and Vinegar (Page 2 ) | August 19, 2024

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Vinegar Solution:
   In a large bucket, mix the 2 cups of white vinegar with 1 gallon of water. Vinegar is a natural acid that helps to kill weeds by breaking down their cell walls.
2. Add Baking Soda:
   Gradually stir in 1 cup of baking soda into the vinegar solution. The baking soda acts as a desiccant, drying out the weeds and disrupting their growth.
3. Optional – Add Dish Soap:
   For better adhesion of the solution to the weeds, add 1 tablespoon of dish soap. This helps the mixture stick to the leaves and increases its effectiveness.
4. Mix Well:
   Stir the solution thoroughly to ensure that the baking soda is fully dissolved and the dish soap is evenly distributed.
5. Transfer to a Spray Bottle:
   Carefully pour the mixture into a spray bottle or garden sprayer. Make sure the container is clean to avoid contamination that could lessen the effectiveness of the weed killer.
6. Apply the Solution:
   On a sunny day, spray the solution directly onto the weeds, focusing on the leaves and stems. Avoid spraying on desirable plants, as the solution can harm them as well.
7. Reapply as Needed:
   After a few days, you should see the weeds start to wilt and die. Reapply the solution weekly, or as needed, until the weeds are completely gone.
