Kill Your Weeds Every Time!

Kill weeds at their roots but leave the soil—and dormant weed seeds—largely undisturbed.

Every square inch of your garden contains weed seeds, but only those in the top inch or two of soil get enough light to trigger germination. Digging and cultivating brings hidden weed seeds to the surface, so

assume weed seeds are there ready to erupt, like ants from an upset anthill, every time you open a patch of ground.

Dig only when you need to and immediately salve the disturbed spot with plants or mulch. In lawns, minimize soil disturbance by using a sharp knife with a narrow blade to slice through the roots of dandelions and other lawn weeds to sever their feed source rather than digging them out. Keep in mind that weed seeds can remain dormant for a long, long

To kill your weeds every time, follow this recipe:

- 1 gallon vinegar

- 2 cups Epsom salt and

- 1/4 cup of blue dawn dish soap
