Does this short with weeds? Or does it burn them?

I won't burn them, but a lot of weeds or tall grass can have a slight grounding affect, but not as much as touching something that's actually grounded.

If you get in on grass or your floweres it will kill them. I've used it on areas that are strictly weeds for the most part or not close to other vegetation I don't want to kill.

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.

It is a physical killer and will only kill what it touches, so it will not kill weeds before they come up.

You can keep the flame low and direct it at a small area. Beware that if those weeds actually catch fire, rather than just wilt to die, you will need something handy to put out the flames so as to not burn the grass. I love using our Red Dragon -- more natural and a lot less chemical use around here now.

No, it will kill all but the very hardiest plant. Now, I do put it directly on some particularly nasty weeds in my yard. It will kill them, and then the grass eventually grows back.

I have run mine over such areas, and I have found that it will not grind up the weeds so much as pull them out. I am fine with this as I just gab the wad of weeds and toss it. I you want it to mush and grind them into the soil, I don't think you will be happy with this tiller.

I have used it mainly in the perennial flower bed--it works well there. I don't know how it works on weeds in the lawn.

If you cut your grass really short, it works great. BUT, if you have more than 3 inches in height, don't waste your money.

No - it works best on a permanent path such as gravel or brick. Also, deep rooted plants like dandelion are not always killed by flame weeding.

That thing throws out a lot of heat. I used it in my garden and I have lots of mulch. You just have to be careful not to keep the flam too long on the weeds. You don't have to burn the weeds, just scorch them and they'll die

I don't know the effect this product have on other weeds. My problem was dandelions and today I haven't seen one grew back on my lawn. Look into other weed and feed products and the main weeds it controls. Hope this is helpful.

It depends. If it's hot out, 5 parts water to 1 part weedkiller works. If its cooler (less than 80F?) you need to make it stronger, maybe 3 to 1.

I use it for crab grass in spots all over my yard. It kills what it touches, but good news/bad news it doesn't last. I've had to retreat the crab grass and clumps eventually get smaller, but I cannot see any grass loss. I will continue to use it for weeds.

depends on how long the weeds are. 6in or more is difficult, will need to go over area a couple times. works great on grass even if it is a little long.

Once the weeds were gone, they didn't come back, so I only had to spray again to hit the weeds I missed. The grass itself was fine. It was pretty sparse where the weeds had been, but filled in nicely. ...we'll see what happens this spring though. Maybe they'll return and I'll have to use it again??

I used it on a flower garden the weeds still came up through two layers of weed block and mulch. For me it was a waste of money. some people swear by it. Not me
