Garden flame weeder

**P* G* <e*@hamptons.com>**

I use the Red Dragon backpack flame weeder. I had an infestation of Japanese
Knotweed on a property here, and I mowed it to death. I set the mower to the
lowest level and scalped it, over and over, every time it appeared. After
two years, I wore it out! The tubers store energy, like a battery, and by
forcing it to keep using that energy but not recharge by photosynthesis I
beat it.
