what i use and it lasts most of the season here, and its wet till late july, is glyphosate aka generic roundup and ecompozar which is a sterilizer. glypho kills the weeds and ecomp keeps them dead. good luck

Got a similar situation with a rock garden like Scho. But also have a retaining wall flower bed type deal that’s only 2-3 feet tall at moms house and she wants me to kill off everything so she can start new with her choice of plants and shrubs.
I’ve had luck using 45-75% vinegar diluted and mixing with a cup of salt, cup of borax, and dish soap. It’s a YouTube recipe out there that’s free of roundup ingredients etc. I used it in the brick paver spot she has and the rock garden with good luck. My question is can I harm the soil for future plants/shrubs this spring with any of those ingredients? I’m in Iowa (great rich soil) and will probably kill it off in the next week. So by April/may should the soil be alright to add new plants/shrubs safely? |

My dad had rock landscaping in Arkansas. He used a propane flame thrower and just burned them out of rock. Got rid of all the pine needles that way too.

Finally found the best weedkiller: I put an ad on Craigslist on Tuesday and hired a Mexican to pull all my weeds for $100.
Problem solved. |
