People keep asking me how do you get rid of weeds organically?
well it's not that easy, but you try these
- best organic way is to pull the weeds up
either put them in the middle of a compost heap so the heat will
kill the seeds
all place them in a plastic bag, leave out in the sun for a couple of days when they are
quite dead, put them in the wheeler bin, (rubbish bin)
- don't let the weeds go to seed as this will be next years crop of weeds
- lots of mulch on top of your garden will deter weeds from growing
- poor hot salty water over the weeds, use a watering can, (pool salt is the cheapest)
- with a lawn mow your lawn higher
- black plastic, thick layer of newspaper, old carpet over the affected area weigh down
with a couple of bricks, (carpet is known to leach chemicals
into the soil, leave that one up to you?)

not really organic but safer than glypsophate
- by a painting kerosene on the weeds with a paint brush
- spraying a mixture of petrol and oil ("safe as long as
you don't light-up a fag")
