"Say hello to my little friend!" The torch works great ... and it is morbidly fascinating to do. Works great if you've had a bad day!

The BEST landscaping channel on You Tube. Video after video it’s all top notch stuff. I’d kill to have you take care of my lawn 👍🏻👍🏻
I really appreciate that, I couldn't ask for a nicer comment. Thanks for being part of the channel
I use a torch and love it. It is so addictive.
I been using a mini flat pry bar. If they get smart I pull out a big crowbar. Yep I tried those fancy ones and didn't like them. I'll have to try the tire spoon looks good.
I loooooove my torch! I usually hit weeds with vinegar in the morning, and on a hot sunny day, they’ll be dried up some by evening. Hit em with the torch then and they completely disappear. Good times.
Do they come back?
@@dcsr2457 weeds are never ending...
Thanks ! Another great video !
I love that torch! Got one for my birthday.
Thats great to hear, they are a lot of fun.
Guardners Hand Shovel/Spade..Digs up Weeds very well--I carry one with me when I mow the Lawn to doing most anything else..
I almost bought the torch the other day! It’s on my list!
Great video! I’ll get a tire iro too while I’m there!
Thanks!
Thank you very much, they are very handy to have around. Good for one here and one there or cleaning up a driveway if its gravel or seashell
The sell ones that connect to the 20# tank at Harbor freight $20.00 or $30. with igniter www.harborfreight.com/propane-torch-91033.html
Great tips and thanks for sharing
I am in the middle of a major lawn renovation thanks to a lot of your videos. I never would have been able to tackle something like that without the info you share. I am in Boxford, MA if you ever want to stop by.
In Arizona where I live, the dry ground is hard. After a good rain or a soaking with a water hose you can pull weeds very easily. Most of the weeds here are a single rood which will sometimes reach down five or six inches which are easily pulled. I have a kneeler to kneel to weed.
Im in the southeast. Georgia specifically. This area all the way to East Texas has got to be the toughest. The stuff growing here is gnarly. It's like a jungle.
Beautiful toolbox you got there in your garage!
Keep up the good content.
Regards!
Thank you I was really lucky with that one in the financial crisis of 2008 a plumber sold me that after keeping it unused or 10 years he said it was too nice to use? Crazy but I was glad to get such a nice deal.
I just bought a 500,000 btu torch off amazon and OMG you can do some damage with this thing. it has a lever to turbo blast and WOW you can feel the heat. I had a hose on standby in case I set something on fire that wasnt supposed to be.
Creative ways to get rid of weeds!
Just wondering if you do any videos explaining how to get lawn ready for fall. I have bermuda grass. Any advise will be helpful. Thank you.
I’m so excited.....
Like the tire iron idea & will try it. The torch looks fun but a little afraid to use it.
I totally get that, the tire spoon really surprised me. if you just keep a hand on the weed you will be amazed at how well it lifts the whole thing right out. Thanks for watching.
I ordered those tire spoons and will try them out.
They are great, plus I do actualyl use them for tires too, this size is perfect for bikes, motorcycle and lawn mower tires too.
After a rain, I use my oxo oyster shucker to pull weeds. Works great!
Good idea, those things are tough!
So what do you do with the crisp weeds after theyre burned? Do you pull them? Do they blow away?
I use a torch on a 20 lb tank. It can be cumbersome. How long does a small tank last with one of these? torches?
Can I spot burn the root of those bad weed thick 1s in middle of a nice lawn & will my lawn fill back in ok?
Try the ‘Grandpa’s weeder’ don’t have to bend over, best I’ve ever used
I have this tool that is amazing yall will like it its called grampa's weeder. Its a great tool!!
Gonna try on Dallas Grass!
I have used it on that with great results. Let me know how it goes for you
Hmm, what if you pull the weed up and then do some burning down the hole you made?
An entire section of my mom's lawn is nothing but stickers. They're not exactly goat heads, but close. They're fairly new. Stick to car tires and shoes. They hurt to step on barefoot. I wonder if we can burn them all safely and effectively?
Can I send you a picture of a type of grass that is invading my lawn. It's a very green grass with tiny round seed pods extending at the end of the grass blade. Tried cutting the grass and roots out of the area only to have it show up someplace else in the yard. Seems to spread quickly.
That sounds like POA annua a very common weed. If you search on that see if it looks imilar if not send me a pic and I can check it out.
Silver Cymbal Not sure how to send a picture without an email address. Thank you for your reply. Just found it today.
@@stevenelson504 the problem grass you describe in response to "creative ways to get rid of weeds" - silver cymbal ... sounds like a form of sedge. (I AM BATTLING THE SAME) I have both yellow and purple nuts edge, as well as green Kalinga. All spread quickly, however the Kalinga is the worst. It came in with some topsoil, I believe. I am about to try Sedgehammer on my front lawn. The backyard is kept as organic as possible, so I have been bagging the grass. As well as torching those weeds with mixed results. Hand pulling is a slow painful process. You might try putting down a pre emergent weed killer as well.
☹️. Wife won’t let me get the torch. Says I won’t just stop at weeds. Neighbors! 😉
My cousin came by and tried it on time, I couldn't get him to stop. He is a big business guy and said it was the most fun he ever had doing anything. Tell her it's for therapy 😀
😂
Silver Cymbal you have been mute on the questions I have been asking both here and Instagram. Most of the products you show in your videos for lawns , if you don’t put the link is hard to find because
1. the Lesco fertilizer for winterize , there is no where to find the exact one you had in the video. Lesco turf fertilizer 18-0-12
2. Also please in your videos some of the routines it will be helpful to give us the time of application like what month in the season do you do that example the winterize method - in what month do you do it.
3. How often is tenacity method used
@@marvinmensah2956 This video shows my schedule and links are in the pinned comment. czcams.com/video/eWdsIUBYf6I/video.html I have stopped using Lesco products, except for their seed. They aren't available online and that makes it hard to get them. My new links show many products from the Andersons which I have found to be even better. Hope this helps.
You shouldn't burn the weed away with the torch. Hit it just long enough to see it wilt then back off, it bursts the cells in leaves and causes the roots to put energy into trying to repair them. The weed will have a much harder time coming back because it won't be able to repair the cells in the leaves and it will waste energy trying to do it. A good way to tell if you did it right is to lightly squeeze a leaf between your fingers afterwards and see if it leaves a fingerprint. If you get that's fingerprint staying you're all set, if not just hit it again. This doesn't work that well on grass though so you're better off using a spray weed killer.
That is very interesting I will have to give that a try. Saving some time is always good. Thanks for the comment and for watching
What about using your Hori Hori to dig up weeds? I love mine! (Talk about addictive)
😉
That is a totally awesome too and you can use it for so much more than weeding. But if you just want to pop a weed and don’t need the cutting action of the hour hour this is a great alternative.
I thought (as you did) the fire technique would be addictive!
Home Depot sells the same style torch for about $25. You're right though, it is a lot of fun.
Get the kind you’ll hook to 20lb tank.
If you live in southern California, please don't use the torch!
Dont burn the weed totaly!
What you should do is to burn it lightly becuase then the cellstruckture in the viseble part of the weed will pop and be destroyed and this will kill the rootsystem as well.
Very interesting I will have to try it that way, great info thank you
Can you give a little more info. I going to try to kill a lot of poa trivialis this spring.
Have you ever used a weed torch, with a VersaMule modular load harness?
