Hello I'm Bruce Zimmerman host of the Open Line Garden Show and Certified Horticulturalist
for rittenhouse.ca.
Today we are gonna take a look at Mechanical Weeders.
The first one we will look at is the Rocket Weeder.
What you do with the Rocket Weeder is you place the tines over a weed
push down with your foot here
then push the unit sideways. This captures the weed and pull out.
To release the weed
you take the plunger and simply push down and out it pops.
The next one we are going take a look at is the Enviro-Weeder
and it works basically on the same principle. You put the unit over the weed and push down
this releases the spikes.
I like to do a half twist at that point
and then pull up.
To release the weed
simply push the plunger and out it pops.
The last one and simplest one
is the Weed Twister.
This one acts like a giant
apple corer.
What you'll do
is you push your foot down here
simply twister around the weed pull up
and you're done.
