I've batted the subject of weed killers around for some time.
I haven't gotten any solid, known facts about them though.
Here comes Spring and I have some things I need to spray to get rid of.
Yes, I use cardboard under my beds, but I have a decades out of control fence line with Rose of Sharon and grapes that I need to KILL with something that will allow me to plant fruit trees there. And I have one friend with out of control Boston Ivy climbing her wall into her attic. There, a permanent kill would be fine.
If I can't hear from someone who can tell me about vinegar and/or ammonia and how to use them and how LONG before I can plant where I have used ammonia, I am going to use Roundup and risk the food chain. I'd rather be green, but I haven't gotten any solid answers.
I poured a full gallon of vinegar on my friend's Boston Ivy , at the wall, allowing it to trickle down the wall and into the roots - and it made not a dent.
I believe vinegar to poison the soil for a long long time.
I've heard that ammonia does break down into some sort of nitrate, but I can't get a clue as to how long that takes.
WHO HAS DONE THIS BEFORE AND WHAT WERE THE RESULTS????
HELP!!!!
