  • Stirrup hoe, push-pull hoe, "Hula-hoe" experiment & demonstration. I believe this tool is a winner. Works great for cleaning quickly around trees.

    In the old days in the South it was called a "scuffle hoe". It cuts the roots below the soil so the weeds dont come back so fast.

  • @robertrussell2595

    Works best on dry hard soil. Keep sharp and clean when using. If soil clumps on blade I use a stick to remove it. Carefully!

  • @Grizzydan
    @Grizzydan 9 лет назад +9

    Need to get one of those.. although I don't have much of a problem with weeds anymore. Soak the ground, lay down cardboard, soak the cardboard, then lay down a thick layer of woodchip mulch, chips from branches with the leaves, not that bark or long chipped stuff in bags at the store. You want the stuff from the tree trimmers. My entire garden is surviving 110+ temps and I haven't watered in two weeks. Not trying to sound like I'm stuck up. I'm just trying to pass along what works! I understand that this test garden was for the purpose of showing off the stirrup hoe. Good luck with your endeavors.

    • @Teddibere1
      @Teddibere1 9 лет назад +1

      Big Dan Hi Dan....you can come and mulch my garden borders anytime!! lol. I have no access to the type of mulch you are referring to. I can only find the bark type mulch, bagged, from larger stores.

    • @Grizzydan
      @Grizzydan 9 лет назад

      Amazingly I found one of these last week while cleaning up someone elses shed hauling most of the junk to the dump. I am thoroughly impressed with how it works! While mine doesn't have a replacement blade it still cleaned up the pathways I have yet to mulch in no time flat. I didn't even rake it up haha nothing was seeding so I'll just cover it with chips when I can. I was beside myself when I found it. What a good example--a year ago I'd have either thrown it with the rest of the junk, or put it in my collection and never thought about it again. Thanks to you, now I have another great tool in my arsenal which will get used!

    Mark, thanks for the demo, i had a question, how well do these work on settled, non tilled, undisturbed dirt? i want to use it to shave off about 6 inches of dirt on the high spots of a 16X20 square. leveling ground for a small above ground pool. Will the lesser quality and price ones work as well or does the blade bow out and break?

    Great tool. I bought one last night and I have been preaching it's ease of use and how great a job it does on crab grass and anything else you don't want in the ground. On a side note: The American Flag is ALWAYS hung with the blue field on the left. You need to fix that ASAP!

    • @nwooley83
      @nwooley83 9 лет назад +4

      James Campbell And from the other side it is on the left. Since flags are not made layered they will always be backwards when viewed from on of the two sides.

    • @texicalif
      @texicalif  9 лет назад

      James Campbell Actually, it is hanging on a pole that is sticking straight out from the fence, not flat on the fence (wall). I tried hanging it angled up 45 degrees, but the wind kept flipping it up on top of the fence. So, it is hanging on a horizontal pole perpendicular to the fence. But, thank you for caring.

    • @camilosixtino
      @camilosixtino 3 года назад

      Roots die, with out sun, thats why these things work, once weed is removed the only regrows are new seeds that are difficult to get rid, but it takes ip to three months to regrow.

    • @user-xc7jm2xd9d
      @user-xc7jm2xd9d 3 года назад

      Depends on the weed. Nutsedge will definitely come back - and worse, because it has extra nutlets in the soil that activate when injury happens. For nutsedge I hit it with a specialty herbicide like sedge ender, wait 2 days for the roots to absorb it, then cut off the top. If you don't want to use something like that you can keep cutting until all the nutlets are spent - takes awhile and you have to stay on top of it every few days so new ones don't form.
