My dirt is hard, It's like I'm just combing the weeds.😊

[@sunder5747]

Try it after a good rain

[@BOKUWADOCTAAAA]

Water and let it sit for a while

[@missdisla5091]

Wow great tips!

[@ummmaryam1511]

I can't stand the snails and worms, im scared of spiders! But I love the idea of gardening?!

[@cherylmorefield7951]

I feel ya

[@alexisg7644]

I’m going to try this right now. I’ve been working my butt off weeding the garden by hand. Thanks!

[@ZaatarGardens]

You’re welcome! Hope it helps you like it has helped me

[@briannamartinez8280]

No seriously! Just moved into this house this winter and the lawn has more moss, weeds, and debris than grass. 😮‍💨 I really wanted give weeding my best shot, didn’t want to just cut it all and lose sight of the different plants but it’s growing… like weeds. Cuz it’s just a diverse forest of weeds. I’m surprised there’s even grass still. But I’m literally getting dressed to head out there right now. 🏃🏽‍♀️

[@teejay622]

Really good advice if the soil is like yours - I'm literally jealous. I WISH my soil/weed combination worked like that - lol. My clay-heavy Michigan soil would laugh at that rake action and leaving the pulled weeds to "compost in place" would create a growth explosion of biblical proportions - lol. It's amazing how well weeds can grow in soil that nothing else will grow in around here. Even my stirrup rake struggles to make a difference. The struggle is real folks - lol. Keep fighting the good fight.

[@ZaatarGardens]

You should’ve seen what my soil was like before, it was complete concrete. The soil where I live many millennials ago was the bottom of the ocean.

[@Normajean_dblzero7]

Where do u live? I will invest in weed puller my hands r raw after 2 years of pulling weeds we have grass now its amazing! Idk y i never got weed puller Duhh,im so hard headed but ive made a difference & ur right the struggle is real but im coming out on top instead of the weeds!! Almst done w/ back yeard.. im soo proud i did this sh/:! Me & ne alone! I wish i could should u pic im not one to brag Lol!!

[@theblessedblackwoman]

I have clay soil like you and I totally feel your pain. Same here.

[@amymacquarrie4115]

If my soil was that soft, I wouldn't mind weeding.

[@jamesscherping2461]

Water it first.

[@margareth1504]

One needs a good rake just like yours. Heavy ish, short prongs, all metal. Not a flimsy thing. I weed parts of my garden just like this. It does work well.

[@DJDOUBLE077]

The key for me is make sure ground is well watered...huge difference.

[@ZaatarGardens]

Correct

[@vilmabock478]

Great tip! 🎉 Thank you.

[@emilhozan71]

Wouldn't letting the weeds compost in place allow them to regrow? Isn't complete removal required?

[@MichaelBurkhalter]

Yes

[@user-fv8rn4gi3x]

@@MichaelBurkhalterit’s alright on a hot sunny day as they’ll dry off but the key to good weeding is damp soil and getting the roots out. Just means doing properly.

[@jlseagull2.060]

I am more concerned about seeds when compost in place. Thames weeds are hardy; so do their seeds.

[@jamiebass359]

Thank you!

[@Genesis55555]

Those weeds didn’t even give a fight. Not like the weeds in Georgia.

[@LaJuana558]

😮. Awesome tips!

[@nunyabidness5505]

I must have Frankenstein weeds in my backyard because even sumo squatting and leaning back all the way does not putt the weeds out all the way

[@ZaatarGardens]

Then your best course of action is layering a lot of mulch and/or garden soil and when the weed seeds germinate in that soil, it’ll come out like nothing, roots and all.

[@cherylmorefield7951]

Thanks for sharing, I really needed to know this information

[@ClosetWorkshop]

you telling me for 40 years I have been doin it wrong? huh?

[@ericjorgensen8028]

Excellent. Similar principle to using a stirrup hoe, or a dutch push pull hoe. Everyone will have to do a little extra work at times with bigger weeds, but do this type of thing every few weeks and it really makes a difference! Less time hand weeding is easier on the back!

[@GeorgiannaMartin]

You have the winning video!❤❤❤

[@Twinleo1]

My weeds are much more difficult. This would be a dream!

[@alysialapenna5484]

Brilliant! TY

[@atinKuop]

That is a sweet trick

[@deejt5220]

Thanks. I have loads of these little seedlings. This should work.

[@ElderandOakFarm]

This is exactly how I do it! Only problem is, where I live, we get so much rain, the ground stays so wet, that they will re-root a lot ofnthe time, so I have to compist them.

[@davidcooper7339]

Thanks for your wonderful demonstration. I will try this with smaller rock landscaping. I think this should work. Thanks again

[@rockyk9316]

Thank you, will try.

[@HNB0330]

Thank you for this!!!

[@obiomaonyeobia4870]

Thank you so much!

[@fonz1116]

Dude thank you !

[@networkbonafide]

What if they have become a tree?

[@maryfuentes5110]

Thank you❤❤❤

[@wemuk5170]

Good stuff! Sideways, why didn’t I think about that? 😂

[@ZaatarGardens]

Obviously, the ground has to be soft enough to do that but one tool for the job

[@rhythmfield]

Does this method work on a gravel driveway? It’s giving me a real headache this year, I sort of let the weed thing go out of control… I’m spraying with vinegar/salt/couple of drops of dish soap mixture, browning them, and then will try this rake method… Pray for me…🤣

[@ZaatarGardens]

That’s going to be tough. I remember a gardening friend of mine that had sort of the same issue would water everything with soap and water and then cover it with a black tarp and the hot sun would basically “cook” the weeds.

[@user-zu9eq4hw9o]

Thank you so so much👌 🙏

[@Jackrabbitt247]

Thank you my friend

[@juneyah3784]

I love it when I have tge tools in the video. Have a Prosperous 2024 Everyone!!!😅

[@ummmaryam1511]

A rake is what i need!

[@najeebsiddiqui6796]

The third one seemed already pulled out

[@ZaatarGardens]

….. it wasn’t though…. Happy Gardening!

[@hippdip]

It 100% was. The roots weren't inside the soil.

[@headSoup]

you sound like chris pontius

[@evanrygalski9817]

What if there is that black tarp layer under the weeds?

[@benh4544]

Don't you have to take the weeds out though???

[@qchirac]

But what if the weed is mixed with my grass in the lawn..

[@anasuasengupta2480]

What is it called?

[@preet7223]

weed grown on top of weed mat or fabric.. thats why it is so easy to remove.

[@ZaatarGardens]

Completely untrue, but regardless every comment helps the algorithm of this video. It’s so amazing how people just don’t believe anything anymore and thank you for subscribing by the way.

[@traciesommerville3819]

LIKE!

[@pattiannepascual]

try that with a lot full of 2 ft tall NJ crabgrass

[@michaelasurtees6495]

Ideal works a treat better then paying a fortune for the weed killers, thanks …

[@dianne6046]

Dont you have to remove the weeds

[@cairoanderson7944]

What to do if you live in Australia and your soil is basically clay? Also, crab grass. Also, I'm crying.

[@ZaatarGardens]

My soil was hard as a rock and when it rained you would get stuck. The only way I changed it was layering mulch, over and over again.

[@Wildman-zh8lg]

Cry baby

[@Salty_TaterTodd]

NEVER compost weeds in your garden back into the garden… They’ll never leave 👍🏼

[@andyakomagaling8695]

easy way

[@cyndihungerford271]

Won't the roots just reroot themselves??

[@rhythmfield]

I feel like letting the weeds “compost in place,” will just re-seed the weeds in some cases, and they will just grow even wilder.

[@ZaatarGardens]

No, they’ll do just fine. regardless you’ll never get rid of weeds: birds droppings, weed seeds on the bottom of someone’s shoe, etc.

[@schumann967]

Very well explained sir

[@ZaatarGardens]

Thank you!

[@cwilliz8629]

10 4 Home depot here I come

[@ZaatarGardens]

It’s so easy! But it is best if the soil is moist while doing it

[@lunbryd]

The weeds where I live would laugh at this tactic.

[@ZaatarGardens]

Then you didn’t build your soil sufficiently and thank you for subscribing by the way

[@teecarry5607]

Those weeds were loose already

[@ZaatarGardens]

……?

[@Wildman-zh8lg]

Get mental help

[@dm7622]

Nice thank you sir

[@Normajean_dblzero7]

No way buddy my weeds wont budge with that rake ive tried it.

[@goldinthegreen8593]

😅🤣😂

[@syedreza8722]

Who has weeds that superficial

[@ZaatarGardens]

Me

[@Wildman-zh8lg]

Lots of people

[@charlieking6640]

That’s not very smart because you want to get the grass weeded and all the seedlings out of there you don’t want to put them in there they will come right back the rakes a good idea but you need to kick it out of the bed

[@cynthialoch8947]

Why would you let weeds compost in place?! 😮 Nope!

[@user-nc6ce4vo4s]

...weedeater? You know, the thing that's name literally hints at its use? It's not just for fence lines and such...ffs.

[@user-no9wb5el8s]

wompwompwommmmmmp

[@ZaatarGardens]

Google translate can’t translate what you commented so I apologize for that, regardless thank you for subscribing

[@marsbeads]

If it looks too good to be true... my weeds need to be taken out by the roots.

[@ZaatarGardens]

That’s too bad for you, but I’ve made a lot of people feel like fools when they call me a liar. Happy Gardening 🤗

[@marsbeads]

@@ZaatarGardens You need to add a lot more information explaining what you’re doing to make the weeds come out so easily. Because most people need to do a lot more than that to permanently get rid of weeds.

[@Wildman-zh8lg]

​@@marsbeadsUse your eyeball that's very self explanatory

[@Wildman-zh8lg]

​@@marsbeadsYou will never permanently get rid of your weeds

[@marsbeads]

@@Wildman-zh8lg I can see what he's doing. My point is he's misleading. You have to do a lot more to get rid of most weeds. Not everyone has weeds with shallow roots; those come out easily. And yes, you can get rid of weeds, it just takes a lot of work.

[@ianleui7007]

Literally didn’t work at all what a terrible video

[@JulieFilter]

I will be doing this tomorrow. Praying it works! My back is killing me from hand-weeding today, and being 7 months pregnant is not working in my favor 🫣

[@ZaatarGardens]

Water the soil 1 hour before, if it hasn’t rained recently, it will make it much easier

[@ZaatarGardens]

Congratulations by the way
