Guest guest Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 Had some nice container veggies and raised beds for veggies this year. A qualified weed, Lambs Quarters, a bane to farmers, still is one of the best quality greens to eat. We harvested what was growing wild, and had a large pot full of them on the porch. Zoe had a bit of KT that was overmature, and added a bit to the pot. Very hard weed to kill? Was toast overnight! I think as a spray, it would be great for preparing weedy gardens or plant beds prior to planting, poisen ivy and such, it would be organic and great. A touch of lime or bakeing soda solution would then cancel the acidic affects. I have never seen a commercial herbicide work so fast ans so total. Root and all, absolutely no regrowth. Going to give a bigger trial this spring. Prespray on emerging weeds, prior to planting, and a sponge application to leaves of weeds after planting. Will let you know how it works.
