I know, it is hard to imagine killing anything this time of year.  When those first precious shoots of green are popping up all we want to do it protect them, even if they are weeds.  I actually think weeds get a bad rap, first off most of them around here are helpful, dandelions mining those mineral from deep under ground and bringing them right to the surface to heal our tired livers and what about Lambs Quarters, so delicious, easy and free for the munching!!  The list goes on, and I am sure I will too at some point, about weeds that are welcome and simply wonderful!!  But because I also love a clever gardener I thought I would just re-post this.  Mind you in New Mexico weeding is usually pretty easy, therapeutic and dare I say fun, but where this gardener is from, New York Stater, lets just say weeding is a bit more serious.  Anyway, here is a little light reading on weed elimination with trusty old vinegar, just keep it in mind.

Got Weeds? Use Vinegar, Not Roundup.
