Here is a DIY natural method to easily pull weeds in the garden
A do-it-yourself weedkiller, also called a “herbicide”, is used to eradicate plants or weeds in the garden or vegetable patch. There are many different types on the market, and they all differ depending on their chemical makeup and the plant they are supposed to kill. Some herbicides are used, for example, to specifically eradicate narrow-leaved plants while leaving broadleaf plants alive.
The herbicide in question simply absorbs the active ingredient but detoxifies it. If, on the other hand, you need to get rid of weeds in your vegetable garden, you can use an all-natural do-it-yourself weedkiller.
A DIY natural weedkiller
To avoid using chemical weed killers, which are harmful to nature and humans, you can prepare a liquid compound that declines weeds and allows them to be easily removed. Do-it-yourself natural weedkillers kill weeds without harming the insects that play a crucial role in the process of plant pollination and maintaining the balance of the entire ecosystem. A good do-it-yourself weedkiller can be made with 5 liters of water, 1 kg of salt and 1.5 liters of vinegar.
Bring the water to a boil, then add the salt. The water is brought to a boil, then salt is added, and vinegar is added. Stir until the mixture is smooth. The natural weedkiller is then ready to be sprayed on the plants to be eliminated, while of course waiting for the liquid to take effect. This mixture is also very effective because the vinegar kills weeds and is easy to find, in addition to being inexpensive.
After a week, the most common weeds such as amaranth, equisetum and meadowsweet should be gone for good.
DIY natural weedkiller: application tips
Before spraying the weedkiller on the weeds, they should be pulled out manually using gardening gloves or a weeder to avoid damaging your hands, back and knees. Then you can spray the mixture using a pressure sprayer, which you can buy at a garden store.
To enhance the effect of the liquid, after applying it to the weeds, you should avoid watering the garden or lawn for about two days. If rain is forecast, you can simply postpone the treatment.
