I've tried 20% vinegar as a spray herbicide now, and am impressed. Given
more or less direct sunlight for a while, plants I sprayed died completely,
including poison ivy. I used a tbsp. of molasses and dishsoap per gallon.

Here's my question: Does anyone have a source for less than the $14.00 I
paid per gallon? I bought from Marshall Grain Co. in Ft. Worth, TX.

I know I can get a break on that with the 50-gal drum, but that's more than
I'll use in a season - which brings me to my second question:

Since it would have to store in the shed over winter, how would freezing
effect it? If I thought there wasn't a problem I'd go ahead and get the
barrel.

Thanks!
