    To kill the weeds in your garden does the salt have to be diluted or can you just sprinkle it on them?
    Also i use sea salt and rock salt that i have to grind, can you use that or would i have to buy normal salt?

    Depends really, I tend to pour salt over the weeds and let the rain wash it in. However, if you do it in the summer or there isnt much rain, you might like to use a bucket of water to disolve it.
