Sorry David, but it looks like bullshit to me, thiocyanate is sulfur +
cyanide. Pull the god damn weeds. Don't be a lazy ****. You don't want
to eat heavy metals.

What heavy metals?

In any event, I would simply pull the weeds. Do it in spring and you'll
be done with them. I'd rather spend a few hours pulling weeds than many
more hours researching, shopping for, and applying herbicides.

Sorry about that. I probably shouldn't post late at night. Arsnic isn't
a heavy metal. It is just very, very, nasty stuff.


What arsenic?
