Brilio.net - Wild grass that grows in the yard often makes the yard look dirty . Even if it has been removed or cleaned, this weed will usually grow again in a matter of days. Therefore, cleaning up wild grass is often a chore that must be done regularly so that the yard is always clean.
However, apart from cleaning it manually, there are also a number of people who choose to use the fast method. One way is to use a chemical weed killer. This is considered to cause the grass to dry out and not grow anymore.
But instead of buying chemical liquids, you can actually use simple ingredients to kill weeds so they dry quickly, you know. This material was used by Instagram user @planteria.id. Through one of the uploaded videos, he admitted that he only relied on simple ingredients in the kitchen.
Reported by BrilioFood from the Instagram account @planteria.id on Thursday (13/6), the kitchen ingredients in question are salt, table vinegar and dishwashing soap. To do this, just prepare 500 ml of water in a large container. After that, add 3 tablespoons of salt and 25 tablespoons of dish soap. Stir it first.

Next, put 1 bottle of table vinegar into the container. After that, stir again slowly until all the ingredients are mixed evenly. If so, transfer it to a spray bottle to make it easier to use.

The next step, spray the liquid directly onto the weeds in the yard. Do this carefully and don't get it in your eyes because it can cause irritation. After spraying, wait until the day.
"The next day it was dry," said Instagram @planteria.id.

Reporting from birdsandblooms.com, salt (sodium chloride) can interfere with the absorption of water and soil nutrients. In addition, vinegar (acetic acid) is corrosive and can burn plant tissue and disrupt soil pH. On the other hand, dish soap can help lower the surface tension of water and damage the protective layer of leaves. Therefore, the grass will immediately dry out and not grow anymore when watered with this liquid.
