DIY Miracle Grow and Roundup

[Nwgirl503]

3. White vinegar is essentially topical

It will kill what's on the surface, and works best with direct sunlight. It's definitely not a long term solution. It will kill pretty much all plant material. As for how safe it is....it's better that your animals lick a little bit of it up over Roundup, but neither of them do you want animals feasting on. There's no surefire way to get rid of weeds or keep them at bay than regular maintenance.

As for Miracle grow...there are soil testing kits you can get at probably a local nursery that will tell you what your soil needs. IDK if they have them at big box stores, but if you go someplace local and talk to their Master Gardner, they'll tell you what you need and walk you through the test results.
