[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone use a propane flame thrower for weeds? People are against spraying, so how about torching? How effective is it? After torching weeds, say between cracks in a patio or driveway, how long will they stay away for? [/quote] Yes, I use one. Bought it at Harbor Freight Tools. Works pretty well, but it’s NOT a precision instrument. You’ll have some collateral damage in other plants close-by the area being burned, so if that’s a concern, don’t use it. I use it for weeds in the sidewalk joints and for scorching down the flower beds at the end of the season. Spray with water afterwards, then re-mulch the next day. Much easier and faster than pulling all the old dying plants out. I just mow over them, then burn off anything still sticking up or green. [/quote]
