I've read that an effective way to remove chickweed is to burn it
down
to soil level
with a small blow torch.

Provided I don't harm any of my vege crops, this seems a logical way
to
do it as I don't have to try and pick at the small weed stems.

Does any one have a good reason why I shouldn't do this ?

Cheaper, easier, quicker to either hoe or hand weed. Unless you have 3
acres of chickweed that is :-)

It's an annual and is easily destroyed/removed.
