I scraped all of the grass off of my vegetable garden but didn't plant anything last year because my grandson was sick so this year I'm going to attempt it again. Some grass grew back so my organic nursery told me I could use 20% Vinegar to kill the grass as long as I didn't plant anything for a week. Is this OK or will my new seeds that I plant die if I plant in a couple of weeks from the Vinegar application?

Thanks for any replies

I think the vinegar works better when it's hot, cause it'll burn the grass...you'll still have to do some digging. Are you going to reapply any other ammendments? I think it you wait a couple of weeks then your seeds should be fine. Just water the area well a few days before planting.
