A dense black growth (bugs?) is forming on my wild mint plants.?

Question

I made up a spray of vinegar and water to put on the plants. Will this harm them?

Answer 1

yes.... vinegar is a weed killer....it's an acid... if you put enuff water with it, you might not kill the plant , but let's not do that again, ok?...

you don't just go grab something and spray it on plants when you still don't know what the black stuff IS.... it might be just mold which would wipe off with a wet cloth!...

wild mint?.... it will survive anything... don't fret....
