You may choose these methods as a money-saving technique, to avoid the use of harsh chemicals, or simply for convenience because you can mix them up in your kitchen. But do they actually work? Join Jefferson County Master Gardener, Christine Heycke, on March 10th for a Green Thumb Gardening Tips Zoom presentation from Noon \u2013 1:00 p.m. for straight talk on the most popular home remedies for weed-killing\u2014as well as some more outlandish ones\u2014to examine what really works.<\/p>\n<p>Christine will discuss how the components of these recipes work on plants and talk about any potential cautions or side effects as home remedies can be effective on some plants and not others. Other ingredients can be hazardous to you, your soil, and the plants you have worked hard to cultivate. Christine notes, \u201cKnowing how the components of these recipes interact with each other and how they affect your soil and plants will help you make informed decisions about how to control weeds in your garden.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Christine is a Washington State University Jefferson County Master Gardener and also serves on the Jefferson County Noxious Weed Control Board. She holds a master\u2019s degree in urban and regional planning, and has enjoyed a lifelong interest in plants, insects, and gardening.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-9723 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/wp-extension\/uploads\/sites\/2069\/2021\/09\/distilledwater-396x287.jpg\" alt=\"common household chemicals\" width=\"396\" height=\"287\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Green Thumb Education Series Presentations are held from 12 to 1 pm on the second and fourth Thursdays of most months. <\/span><b>Talks are currently only being offered by online streaming, due to current social distancing concerns with COVID-19.
