Hi!
Found this Garden tips page and thought you might find it interesting.

I particularly found the tip about using full strength vinegar to kill weeds interesting - have any of you used this method?
Vinegar's dilute acetic acid, and I can well imagine it killing weeds! It's pretty poisonous stuff really.
Good site, few things I hadn't thought of on there.
I tried full strength vinegar on Docks growing in my driveway but it didn't work.  >:( Â
Perhaps I didn't use enough? I just made sure every leaf was thoroughly soaked. Or perhaps I needed to repeat the treatment regularly? Any advice would be welcome - I won't use weedkillers.

Try salt on the weeds in your grass.

What's vinegar then???
Vinegar is what I put on my chips - it won't kill weeds for me.  ;) What I meant was, I don't want to use proprietary weedkillers/harmful chemicals as I try to be organic. But these docks are growing up through cracks in the edge of the drive and no matter how much I cut them down they keep coming back. I can't dig them out as there isn't room.
