How to get rid of weeds without hoeing or using Round Up

Flame weeding around fruit trees

This years gardening season has been quite rainy for most of the country; and thankfully so for some areas that have experienced prolonged drought conditions.
With all that rain our garden plants have been able to thrive to maturity. -Even though we got a late start planting this year;.. due to the excessively rainy spring.
Along side of the plants grow the tares; weeds that compete for water (as though there were not enough this growing season) and nutrients that rightfully belong to the plants you are nurturing to maturity.
With the soil as wet and mucky as it has been, hoeing can be a messy, tiring ordeal that only digs up more weed seeds in your garden so the the daunting task of weeding can continue over and over again.
The answer to that problem: FLAME WEEDING!
We will be posting more about flame weeding here with some details on available flame weeding equipment and a little how to as well.
