I put a highschool kid in the field with a 4-wheeler and a garden-variety flamer.
He just scorched the crap out of the plants.........and surprisingly it worked.
I was always told that canadian thistle grows from the root, and therefore, unless the root dies, there will be continual growth. Therefore, flaming should have been only a one year deal..........lasted for about five years.
Yes, flaming works pretty well .. .. sometimes, depending on timeing, you may get escapes, but flamer again and that generally does it. Of course, when I flame, the soil genererally get starilized in that spot some . . . . .. ( ~ : I like fire lol
How do you get rid of Canadian thistle without using herbicide
