Recipe for a Homemade Weedkiller

RE: Recipe for a Homemade Weedkiller Post by kimhis (801) | (06/08/2008) Contact Sorry, my goats never would eat a single bite of nettles or stickery things, except for blackberries. I used to use a scythe, one of those tools that the Grim Reaper carries. Mowing before seedfall helps. And I poured boiling water under the electric fence (turned off, duh). The more you treat the pasture grasses right, the more they predominate and the undesireable weeds get crowded out.

Thinking of getting some goats again but the way people drive I wouldn't dare put them near edge of road where a lot of the burdock are located.

That might work, eventually, and it might save your back. Or, do you know someone with a goat that could be corralled on your land?

Mix in a water can. Sprinkle on unwanted weeds. I didn't mix the whole recipe, but I did mix a little and poured it on some dandelions and they died. I also tried to pour boiling water on some weeds, and it did not kill them. Just stunted them some. Report Spam or Abuse
