Understanding the Limitations and Best Use Cases

This vinegar and Epsom salt recipe is a powerful tool but not a magic bullet. Knowing its strengths and weaknesses will lead to greater satisfaction.

1. What It Kills Best

This solution is exceptionally effective on annual weeds, young seedlings, and soft-leaved weeds (like chickweed, dandelion, crabgrass, and purslane) in non-planting areas. It excels for spot-treating weeds in driveway cracks, between pavers, along fence lines, and in gravel paths—places where you don't want any vegetation.

2. Its Limitations and Challenges

The primary limitation is that it may not kill deep-rooted perennial weeds (like bindweed, thistle, or Japanese knotweed) permanently with a single application. It reliably kills the top growth, but the roots may survive and regenerate. Repeated applications are necessary to exhaust the root system. It is also less effective on mature, woody, or waxy-leaved weeds. The effects are not systemic like glyphosate, meaning the herbicide does not reliably circulate through the plant's entire vascular system.
