9. Cinnamon to Prevent Fungal Growth
Cinnamon has natural antifungal properties.
Dust a small amount over soil or directly on plant surfaces to combat fungal diseases like damping-off.
It’s especially helpful for seedlings and completely non-toxic to beneficial bugs.
10. Olive Oil for Tool Maintenance
Keep your garden tools in great shape with a little olive oil.
Wipe blades with a cloth soaked in olive oil to prevent rust. Rub into wooden handles to keep them from drying out and cracking.
Regular maintenance extends the life of your tools and keeps them working smoothly.
11. Vodka as a Natural Weed Killer
Vodka works as a fast-acting weed killer when used in the sun.
Mix 1 ounce of vodka with 2 cups of water and a few drops of dish soap. Spray directly onto weed leaves during the heat of the day.
⚠️ Like vinegar, vodka is non-selective, so apply with care.
