The best way to eliminate weeds and not your flowers is an all-natural solution. These 7 weed-killing alternatives are tried and tested and are made with products you might have in your cabinets at home. Check out these all-natural solutions to pesky garden weeds.
1. Baking Soda
You can apply baking soda to unwanted weeds any time of the year at the rate of 1 teaspoon per weed plant. The baking soda must coat the entire plant, including its foliage, with the bulk of the baking soda covering the weed’s stem. This technique works best on patios, walkways, and driveways.
It can also be used as a preventative measure by sweeping baking soda into the cracks in which weeds grow.
2. White Vinegar
One quick way to get rid of weeds is to pour or spray a little white vinegar on the offending weeds. This acidic masterpiece is perfect for shrivelling weeds, just be careful of your flowers. A little excess spray won’t hurt them, but accidentally pouring the same amount of vinegar on your flowers as your weeds could kill them.
3. Table Salt
One of the most popular methods for killing weeds is table salt. You can sprinkle salt directly on the weeds or even create a saltwater mixture which can be sprayed. To make sure your other flowers don’t get hurt with this method, make sure to sprinkle a little salt at the base of each weed.
4. Cornmeal
Want to stop weeds before they even start? The proteins in cornmeal – or specially-processed corn gluten meal – stop any seed from germinating and growing. You can also sprinkle cornmeal on grown weeds, it’ll kill them just as well as it’ll stop them from growing.
5. Boiling Water
Perhaps the easiest and cheapest method on this list, using boiling water. Heat up a kettle of water and carefully pour it directly on your weeds for a quick, chemical-free way to purge your garden.
6. Borax
You might not have thought of using this kitchen must-have in your garden, but it’s very helpful for killing unwanted weeds. All you have to do is add 10 ounces to 2 ½ gallons of water, mix thoroughly, and spray onto the weeds thoroughly.
7. Newspaper
This technique is called “smothering”, and it’s the process of literally weighing down weeds so they have no light, air, or room to grow. Wet some paper and lay it on top of your weeds. You’ll get rid of your junk mail and destroy gardens weeds, all at once!
