What are the amounts for a spray weed killer (vinegar & epsom salt)?

Beverly, we use this recipe: 1 gallon white vinegar, 2 cups Epsom salts, 1/3 cup Dawn dish soap (blue kind), mix well and spray. It will kill any plant, so it should not be used on weeds on the lawn for example as the grass will also die. We use it around the border of our wire fence to prevent the need of weed eating, and in the driveway and along the driveway as well as sidewalk cracks. It works best on sunny days.

Hi Beverly,

Here is the link to the weed recipe I use.

This is an additional link I think is helpful. It explains why only spraying the weeds won't kill the root of the weeds. So once the top of the weeds are killed they still must be pulled to prevent the roots from regenerating the green part of the plant. It additionally talks about how adding too much salt to your garden can effect the pH of your soil.
