Vinegar, if strong enough, will kill all plants!
20% acetic acid can be obtained in the UK. It is not cheap.

It was on the news a couple of weeks ago that people had been complaining about their town smelling like a chip shop because the council were using vinegar as a weed killer as an alternative to expensive herbicides. I wonder what strength they used? I think it is about 5% or less for culinary use.
