Pick up corpse and dispose. Takes longer to type than it does to do. Don;t leave any dead flowers lying about (or compost the flowers) because they can turn to seedheads even in death. Janet. I have one of those tools but was told that no matter how deep we pull them they will grow again. If you have had success I am going to go with it. And I like your idea....target one weed one year. Still have to weed though but a concerted effort on one bugger sounds good and I am going to give it a go, nothing else seems to work. Regards PtePike I use a normal food knife to cut the root. I'd like a tool that was easier to hold though -- http://www.Voucherfreebies.co.uk http://www.holidayunder100.co.uk |
