@syhr@mastodon.art @natz_b@mastodon.social Do NOT use salt! It will poison the soil, including plants and insects, for years - "salting the earth" was a thing for invading armies in ancient times for a good reason in that it prevented crops from growing and starved the population into submission! In a small area like that you can remove unwanted plants by hand . I will happily use chemicals on my allotment but for smaller areas it's a waste of money See https://www.rhs.org.uk/prevention-protection/weeds-non-chemical-control Weedol Path & Gravel - Glyphosate Free would do the trick if you want to use a biocide
