Tips for the Best Results

If you want to avoid harsh chemicals in your yard, making a homemade weed killer is a great solution. You'll have total control and know exactly what you're spraying.

The water value refers to the amount of brine you want to make. For example, if you are using one-quart jar you will make less than a quart of brine as you already have vegetables in the jar. I’m curious what the brine % would be for cherries. And possibly for how long… One source said only about 12 hours… Peaches would be nice to know about and any other fruit for general ideas.

Once you get to temp, start stretching and folding the dough with a spoon, it will be hot. If there is any leftover liquid/whey pour it into the pot. Since this method is almost as old as we are since we (as humans) have learned the technique, why do writers on fermentation make this so… cloudy?

Fill with water to 1 gallon in a hand sprayer (this makes 20% concentration for mature and established weeds) Hi Gigi, thanks for this great resource, I am new to using brine solutions to ferment (I have brewed kefir, kombucha, and made kefirkraut) I have a glut of rhubarb and other crops in my gardens and remembered watching a TV program here in the UK on Scandinavian food. They used a 2% brine solution with red currant leaves as a starter culture, to preserve rhubarb through the long Swedish winter. This sounds perfect. I just wondered if you had any experience of this or similar? Because of that, this solution is best used on patios, sidewalks, and other areas where you don't want any plant life to rebound.

With homemade weed killer, you can have full confidence in the ingredients," says Craig Elworthy, founder of eco-friendly lawn care company Lawnbright. "Most commercially available herbicides are laced with harsh chemicals and other difficult to pronounce ingredients. The homemade recipe is very straightforward." The purpose of using salt in fermenting is to keep away the unwanted bacteria, make vegetables crunchy and crisp, add flavor and preserve the vitamins. I’m wondering though, do it make a difference if the potatoes I’m using have been grated and have had most of the starch removed? Or would the 2% salt brine still apply?Higher efficiency is achieved by using on younger weeds, and mature weeds should use this product at a 1:3 ratio (makes one full gallon of 20%). If you experience rain, heavy frosts and morning dew, you may need to reapply the salt and vinegar weed killer again to keep weeds at bay.
