    I'd rather use pruners or the hedge clippers. Air quality is sometimes bad already. I wouldn't want yo add to it. Whatever works fir some. Thanks for your video.

    I wanna see how they came back. If the burnt ones were fuller and more robust than the cut ones.

    As a California resident this makes me nervous 😬 😁
    Honestly, I enjoyed it, reminds me of my childhood in the Philippines 😎👍🏼 Looking forward to see what it looks like later on this year.

    that's pretty cool. have a bunch of those type of grasses like you have and man it's a lot of work to cut all that stuff down and cleaning it up. What's crazy is I never thought to burn these. I burned my Bermuda grass for the for the first time last spring and it worked awesome. for that job I used to harbor freight torch that you hook up to a 20 lb propane tank.. Less wear and tear on your hedge trimmer and clean up is non-existent, sounds like a winner to me. Also I've heard stories back in the old days that farmers would do controled burns for better crops the next season because all the nutrients in the plant is going back into the soil

    Why don’t you cut them all and then just burn the residual stump?

      I’ve done that also. Biggest issue in our area is getting rid of the debris.

      Mines up against the Vinyl siding house but this will save me some time cutting it down. Thx.

    How long into the spring can you burn the ornamental grasses?

    • @theeapco
      @theeapco  3 года назад

      Ours are just starting to grow back now so I think you are still safe to do it now without damaging the new growth.

    I don't know about the burn part. Seems too risky for it to go of control.

      If you keep a rake and water close by just in case you are fine. As I mentioned in the video you wouldn’t want to do that method in a closely planted garden space. Thanks for watching!

    My grass is real thin. Finer than this. It burns to the ground. Gone in minutes. Great method. Mine are a bit close to the house. Not that close but maybe 6 feet. I keep a hose in my hand and control it. Dousing it to burn slower. Been doing it for 15 years so I got it down now.
