Scorched

I am on a campaign to rid the yard of weeds, a formidable task as there is creepy charlie, dandelions, and other pesky weeds everywhere.I tried to burn some of them with the tiger torch,
shielding the good plants with a shovel,but the torch had a few idiocyncrasies and only worked part of the time, so I had to stop using it.
I have heard boiling water is good for killing dandelions. That is something I will have to try.

  1. I use boiling water on my paved stone driveway! Works good! I usually add some vinegar to the water for extra killing ability...

  2. I have heard about the potency of hot vinegar and we plan to use it on the path and parking pad.
