Thank you.

Some gardener had told me that ammonia "eventually" turns into nitrogen. I just wondered if it would happen within one season, 2 seasons, etc.

Vinegar is only for gravel parking lots and such.

And I guess I will cut out the old fence so I can get in between it and my chain link fence to cut the rose of sharon and grape vines to the ground and cover everything with cardboard and mulch. That's more energy than I wanted to spend with my "little old lady" back - and more money, but I can take the old fence to the scrap yard.....

In my research I did find some evidence that ammonia does turn into nitrites, then nitrates in soil. But no mention of how long it takes. That particular study was done in Africa.

Where I live, Pittsburgh, we have all 4 seasons - from 0 degrees to 90. It's rarely dry unless the water is all frozen. It's very humid here in the heat.

Can you quote me some evidence that ammonia and/or vinegar are air pollutants when used as no more than 3 gallons?
