Can I use this to pull annual bluegrass (Poa annua)?

You can use it for poa annua but, it will be very slow going. This tool is only able to pull one weed at a time. Best way is to control poa annua with pre-emergent.

It is strictly useful for one weed at a time. It is too time consuming to pull up multiple weeds. It is very good for larger weeds, but useless and time consuming for multiple weeds.

Sort of. To use it you have to find the middle of the weed. (I'm speaking of annual ryegrass, but I assume they are very similar.) If you have a lot, it is hard to determine where the center is. If you just have a few, it is easier. Either way, you'll be able to get a lot of it, but if you have a lot, it'll be more frustrating.

Yes, that is what I used it for when I bought it. Make sure you wait until it is warm enough to sow outside. I jumped the gun too quick last year !!

No. The bristles on the revolving brush aren't stiff enough to satisfactorily pick up the acorns. You'll need something heavier duty.

If your lawn produces a lot of thatch or your mower does not have a bagger on it I would make sure you do it once a year, the time of year you do it depends on multiple things... especially the type of grass you have.

I have had the best results with small, green branches and the least with grass-like plants and larger branches or dry ones. I usually end up with a pile of mulch where I have to separate the longer, stringy pieces from that which I can really use for mulching around the garden. I burn what I can't use ( maybe 15%.) You could bag it and put it in the trash. This unit will take care of a good part of our waste with the rest that's too big going to the landfill.

I have about a quarter acre and I use about two spools per season. Not sure of the time that it's being used for but it lasts a while.

yes. works well on winter grasses. do not use on st. augustine. That's what bonus s is for.

It only works on ungerminated seeds. It does not work on existing weeds. You do have to pull those. But it saves you a lot of work in the long run, after the initial weeding. Start early but not too early. Make sure your perennials have started growing so you do not kill them off.

I use it for weeds in my dwarf mondo grass with no problem. Not sure about anything else though.

I'm not really sure as this is really meant for things like dock, burdock, dandelions. I also use it to dig a hole for bulbs. I love the tool. I just think it might take up too much soil to dig around the clump of crabgrass. But it might work great.

Mild pulling would probably be OK. However, there are other, more expensive, alternatives that are made of metal and may be more suitable.

No, I don't think it would work well for that. I used it on pinecones and small branches and it worked well. I use my lawnmower with bag (Greenworks as well) to collect and mulch leaves.

It was designed to pull broad leaf weeds like Dandelions which have a long tap root. Works pretty well especially if you get to the weeds when they are young. It is not 100%, it breaks off some roots if they are real long or the ground is hard. So it that is a concern use Crossbow spray.

You can but seems to be overkill. If u have Crabgrass problem then just use said product, if general control needed just use the weed and feed.

Yes it will pull up Morning glory or Smilax. It may take a couple of tries in moist soil. With a slight turn of the handle as you bring out the root. Practice makes perfect they say.

should work fine for that. it works well as a substitute for a hoe since the action of this tool is to cut the roots and base of weeds below thw surface. You still should remove the loostened plant / weed debris. But it helps maintaining a garden space much easier than removing each weed by hand.

I have had my shopvac for a few years now and really like it. I actually have two different ones and the ShopVac model is by far the better unit. I think it would be fine to vacuum your yard with this. I guess the turf is glued down and this will not pull that up. If the turf is loose, just don't put the nozzle right on the grass.
