- A farm jack is a very easy way to uproot difficult plants, bushes and shrubs. For a reasonably small outlay this very useful tool can save lots of time and effort in the garden or small hoilding, removing unwanted and difficult growth with ease.

Great demonstration, thanks. I'm in the US - my British father in law gave me a farm jack that looks just like yours. Tomorrow I hope to pull out an unwanted sapling. Much appreciated!
Best of luck! :-)
Great tool, and a very good explanation and demo. Thanks for posting Russell. Always enjoy your videos, you always give a very comprehensive review.
Cheers John, I appreciate your comment! :-)
not sure if you guys gives a shit but if you are bored like me during the covid times then you can watch all of the new series on InstaFlixxer. Have been streaming with my girlfriend these days xD
@Daniel Mario Yea, been watching on InstaFlixxer for months myself :D

Thanks! Love the idea of the U bolt and screw. Greets from across the pond.
Cheers Mike. Greetings from the other side! :-)
@@RussellPlatten My farm jack comes in the post tomorrow. I will also make a video dedicated to you and my friend who is a master gardener. I'll let you know when it makes it to video.
Nice demonstration. Probably would have helped to trim the bush a little first so you better access the base.
Bravo man!
:-)
Time for a pint now russ after those exertions....very informative as always......
Thank you! Thought I might scare a few viewers off with the vest! LOL
good job~
:-)
Nice one Russell :-)
Hi Russ, hope all is well up there! :-)
Hey Russ. Love your videos. Debs ( South Africa)
LOL - Now then stranger! I hope you are all well over there. :-)
Russell Platten All good over here. Expected to see you in full PPE gear waging war on the corona!
@@deborahbensch9887 Pretty well isolated over here. We are taking it very seriously though! :-)
I like your doing this in your slippers to show how easy
LOL - Boat shoes John! :-)
Great video and great idea.
Although for a second, I thought this was a travellers ‘call out’ video for a ‘fair go’ 😅
LOL
In Alaska. Cottonwood is on notice👍💯edit. It's 120 in the morning, but since it's Alaska and the summer it's still light I'm going outside right now to just see how well it works with one very irritating brushy cottonwood!
I hope it does the trick Lisa! :-)
Any particular farm jack do you recommend? Or size?
Not really, the size depends on what you are wanting to achieve with it, mine is 48". I would look at reviews and price and make a decision based on what looks best for the money. :-)
Great video I had a go myself but the rope kept slipping. Any ideas on how to fix this? cheers
Use a slip knot John and pull it up tight around the base before connecting it to the jack. :-)
@@RussellPlatten Okay thanks Russ. You mentioned bowline knot in vid. So you tie the shrub with a slipknot then make a bowline and hook with to the jack. Okay make sense
@@johndriller8152 I place the two loose ends of the rope through the bend at the other end (the bit that I put around the back of the plant) to make a slip knot. Then tied the bowline with the two loose ends to attach it to the jack. :-)
Ah, wife asked! I know the feeling...
LOL. I do love her tough!! :-)
No need to apologise Russell got to keep cool
I know, not used to this type of weather! :-)
@@RussellPlatten i dont do heat more of a snow and minus temperatures man
@@KnugenMooMoo The best holidays we have had have been in sub zero temperatures with snow and ice. Mind you, I do like the sun! :-)
You kept putting your head in the danger zone between the handle and the jack post while cranking during lifting. Very bad practice. Always operate the cranking standing in front of the handle not the side. If your hand would have slipped you may not be alive today.
