How to remove Burdock/Thistle (big tap root weeds).
1. Drive shovel at steep angle close to base of plant.
2. Pry blade up slightly, lifting dirt wedge. You may hear the root pop.
3. Grab base, wiggle back and forth vigorously to loosen soil. Lift weed+root vertically.
4. Step on dirt wedge to level it with original location.
Works best after a good rain.
Works extremely well if you have this type of weed in your lawn. It causes minimal damage to the surrounding grass.
