[HIGHLIGHTS] It is better not to fight goutweed with vinegar

Fighting goutweed with vinegar is not always a good idea. Acetic or ethanoic acid has a corrosive and antibacterial effect at the same time.

vinegar changes the pH of the soil and, above all, together with salt, can only be mixed by professionals or used in the garden. The vinegar then gets into your own garden and also pollutes the groundwater in higher concentrations.Salt, which is often used together with vinegar, changes the nutrient content in the soil. It is better to simply pluck out the g outweed or remove it permanently with the help of sunlight.
