My precise way to target specific weeds it's just to pull them out

[@nickeldime6713]

I mean that can work, but it typically takes a lot of work to do, especially since you need to pull the roots for it to be very effective. However as he said this product was made with people in mind who can't really do all that weed pulling, like the elderly, or those with medical issues, of which there are a fairly large number that enjoy gardening. This is basically the easy tool that anyone can use, that won't hurt your back in the process, and is still very safe to use.

[@Tyshkevich]

Yeah as nicholas said his customer isn't a healthy young man. His customer is that older person that can't exactly do all of that physical labor. And should i say, majority of gardeners ARE older people. Younger people are too busy schooling and working to take care of a garden. They'll just buy at the supermarket.

[@eecak1973]

Chuck Norris would give weeds the death stare and they would die.

[@shawnbrands9777]

My thought exactly. For most weeds it is just as easy to pull them out. People spray to save time. It could be used for occasional weeds difficult to pull like large thistles

How come sometimes the sharks introduce themselves and sometimes they get offended at entrepreneurs for not researching them? 😶

[@rviesnes2062]

Why would you come on show without knowing the strengths of the investors

[@stijnvandenbruel2790]

I always assumed they only introduce themselves in the episodes from the first season of the show. Might be totally wrong

[@nickeldime6713]

Well they weren't exactly introducing themselves, they were saying what they could bring to the table, there is a difference between having no clue what they are each known for and asking what specifically they can bring, the two can be very different things. Steve for example is mainly know for electronics/software, however that isn't necessarily all he can bring, and those coming in might not necessarily know who Steve is friends with, or what other types of business ventures he has been in, like you wouldn't really think he would have any connections that would help this business in particular but apparently he has manufacturing connections for this type of stuff. They expect people to know their names and know what they are most known for, but they don't expect people to know ever business connection and venture they have. Steve doesn't care that you don't know he has specific manufacturing connections, but he would care of someone comes in and has no clue that he is in software development, since that is what he literally built his business on to start from.
