Green Thumbs-up: Mind-Blowing Gardening Hacks Every Plant Parent Needs to Know!

Toasting Weeds Goodbye with Vodka

Believe it or not, vodka can bring the party to your garden’s weed warfare. It turns out that this popular spirit can be a total downer for unwanted plants. Why? When vodka hits weeds where it hurts—right in the chlorophyll—it strips them of their defenses against the sun, leading to a total garden hangover for the unwanted greens.

The trick is using cheap, high-proof vodka; you don’t need top-shelf spirits to deal with bottom-rung weeds. Mix it with some water and a drop of dish soap, spray it on the invaders on a sunny day, and watch them wither away. It’s a cocktail for success—just not for the weeds.
