You're right Ben!! Since buying all four of these amazing devices, weeding has become SUCH a pleasure that I've decided to stop growing vegetables altogether :D
You are an excellent presenter of information. If you haven't already then I could see you being snapped up by a TV channel, but I'm glad to have you here ☺️
Agreed, but does anyone watch TV anymore? 😂 I much prefer the podcast. I use Japanese garden tools, Niwashi Trilux (or similar knock-offs) in New Zealand. Good for close-up weeding 😊 Really enjoying your channel, although our seasons and climate differ.
Thank you for your videos. I really enjoy them and they have helped me; an absolute novice gardener to enjoy growing my own veg and encourage a fussy husband to enjoy the fruits of my labour!
Thanks for this review of weeders! My favorite weeders are a diamond hoe for weeding in tight spaces (my veggie and flower beds) and the Fiskars 4-Claw Stand Up Weed Puller, for extracting larger weeds and tap-rooted weeds. The Fiskars is similar to the Walensee Weed Puller but more efficient in terms of results and the energy required to use it. Getting one made weeding much less onerous and, at age 74, that's really important. I will give the cobra weeder a try.
Thanks for this review. I love the swoe and have had one for several years. But my favourites is a Hori Hori. Mine is from Niwaki (not cheap) but there are other makes available. I find it can hoike out the deep rooted weeds as well as the small and I can tickle the soil up at the same time!
I'm glad you showed us how to use these tools. I inherited what looks to be a Easy weeding tool but didn't know what it was. Thank you it will be very useful as we have a lot of dandelions.
My favourite tool is the hori hori. Its great for weeding. It's a Japanese tool, a handheld cross between a knife, trowel and hoe and I wouldn't be without it.
A really helpful review, thanks Ben. As I’m getting older, weeding is becoming more challenging. I have a lot of dandelions here . Whilst I leave some for the wildlife, I need to reduce their numbers rather, so the Eze weeder looks just the job for that.
I have both the mini and the full size cobra head cultivator. I LOVE them. I use them all the time. For planting, weeding, and harvesting. Strongly recommend.
Exellent Iwe had my last season with my favourit tool, similar to the Wilkingson sword, I like to have a quick rake with it and lelt the weeds dry for a day or two in the sun then rake them off the topsoil. Oh and your definetly shuld be sponsored, thank you for another great and informative video.
Great video and an excellent review of these tools. Got me thinking about adding one or two of these. Can definitely see how they would make weeding less of a chore! Thanks again Ben!
I like weeds too. The cobra head tool looks brilliant for weeds in compacted gravel 🤔 It might stop me using kitchen utensils when no one’s looking 😂 I’d love to see something on rakes, the leaves are beginning to fall, ive just bought a clever rake where the head pops off and becomes a pair of grabbers 🙌. It’s good but the pop buttons are small so I have to take my gloves off. Reminds me of when we were kids, dad would send us outside to rake the lawn on a windy day
I used a short swoe - just the attachment bit from the Wolf Garten collection, which gives me finer control as I kneel to weed. For gravel & paved areas I use a blow torch 😀
Thank you for this excellent demonstration and review. I think that what I really need is an army of youths to do battle in my garden, which is a vast weed refuge and breeding ground covering well over an acre, probably 2. I have negotiated with the opposition and arrived at a wary armistice, using those weeds who refuse to cooperate as a carefully nurtured crop in some areas provided they stay out of others - at least too much. We eyeball each other all summer. I love winter. I can pretend that I won.
@@GrowVeg I do welcome it - a period of self indulgent delusion is good for the soul. I do not possess a TV but the quality of your videos equals, if not surpasses, the odd programmes I did sometimes see many decades ago - thank you.
I make a distinction between weeding an area (like a veg bed) and pulling individual weeds in awkward places because they need very different tools. Im currently trying to identify the thistles and blackberry that have settled in amongst patches of violets and such, over our winter. That's a very different task. Ive got Fiskars variant of the 'Grandpa's weeder but only use it on 'lawn' (ie the escaped pasture that passes for lawn😉)
Some good tools there Ben, I've got a few, but my all time favourite tool for weeding inabout onions, shallots, leeks, beetroot and similar close planted crops, is an old fashioned strong wooden, not plastic, handled and poly cord wrapped Lancashire potato peeler - believe me, they are just brilliant - get / try one - I'm sure you'll agree 👍
Hi Ben, i use the Wolf Garten Swoe mainly because you can buy the attachments for it, instead of buying a new tool altogether not a bad idea. TC. Barry (Wirral)
Great video Ben. Very nice to see a review on weeders, as we gardeners all need them! I’m a fan of the Hula Hoe, but will be giving the Cobrahead and Greena Eze a shot as they seem the best application for my needs.
Thanks I enjoy most weeding, I find it very satisfying but I do have a problem with docks so the eze tool would be good for that. Random question how many bounces can you do on a pogo stick? X
Hi thanks, I did this some days ago with these 3 claws tool. When doing this, I thought about it and came to the idea: Why not just crawling trough the earth so that the roots come up and then starting a hot fire over it? This would remove all roots (Ihave a lot of them!) and give minerals back to the soil. What do you think?
Thank you. Have you ever tried a scuffle hoe? It's a long-handled weeding tool meant for continuous maintenance of a garden bed. If you've tried it, please share how you think it performs against the long-handled tools here. Thanks.
I have one. I love it for early-spring or frequent weeding, where you have a million tiny seedlings that are going to create a weed forest later. Later in the year I don’t find it works as well, but that’s because I’ll have been slack and let weeds get big, and my most pernicious weeds are basal growers with big burly tap roots.
Stainless steel is too soft for a garden tool. In particular those wilkinsons sword tools with the tiny stainless shaft between the tool head and the socket does not have sufficient area/volume of weld to hold the tool head on. I have had the stainless shaft bend and the welds crack and fail. You should not be worried about garden tools getting slightly rusty.
I'm getting RSI just looking at you using that last corkscrew weeder! It's a prime example of a tool that humans shouldn't have invented. I've added it to my long list of things that look like a great idea in theory, but fail epically in practice. It would make an excellent shed clutterer, though, LOL! Little cobra for the win!
The Greena EZE Weeder isn't available in the US. It's marketed as Grandpa's Weeder here. I don't know if they are identical but looks as though they are
I HATE weeding but you have given me some options to maybe make it a little less annoying. Now if only I could find a way to get rid of my mare’s tail weed, it is driving me crazy and nothing works, and I’ve been told NOT to dig it up!??!
I was trying to decide approx where you garden at? You seem to have a much cooler climate than where I am. That little short handled rake thing will bother people with bum backs (like mine). It looks child sized. I am interested in a cobra head tool though. I have a long handled claw thing akin to a hoe, but with 4 tines. I like it a lot, and always check for snakes before putting my hands in places I cannot see. (We have a lot of snakes here).
I keep meaning to invest in an oscillating hoe, but might get one of these ones after seeing your vid. I need to sit and think long and hard about my options 🤔
Thank you for this Video, I searched for the Cobra Head Tools shipped to Austria and failed (3x the US-price at Amazon Germany tells me "unavaliable") but there is the "Sauzahn" or "Kultivator" available, sure in Germany or Switzerland, too. Ben, have you ever tried a broadfork? (the other tool that Cobra Head offers) it seems to do a very good job with heavy soils, my digging fork is not working for me, or maybe I am just not strong enough? (there is an interesting manufacturer for broadforks in France, for everyone in Central Europe)
That corkscrew weeder makes my back ache just thinking about pulling out the wedge shaped plug by brute force, rather than by the mechanical advantage of lever action of your top choice. My favourites are the stirrup shaped reciprocating hoe, and the very sharp, short bamboo handled SS Japanese sickle, which cuts roots off just below the soil, and leaves the fine roots there to decompose.
@@kayo5291 In certain parts of the world, it's purposely grown to make herbal medicine. You should look into the plant benefits. I make an oil for achy joints with it. Also, Mugwort is used in cooking to flavor foods and beverages, including fish, meat, desserts, pancakes, soups, salads, and more. There are many uses for that plant. :) I harvest almost all my flowers for teas when feeling under the weather. Talk about eye candy in the winter. Lol

Yes indeed, chop and drop is well worth doing for any annual weeds that pop up. It's how I weed in the majority of my vegetable beds - they soon whither away into the soil if it's windy and/or sunny.
Yeah, no... I've gotten used to dandelions in a yard. They're actually beloved in Japan as a part of the lawnscape. They'll even let them go to flower all at once at the schools for the splash of color - but oftentimes they accidentally let them go to seed, then they spread to the nearby school veg gardens, where they compete with what the kids are trying to grow... And since there is no real remaining tradition of dandelion consumption like in Europe or the Americas, I'd say they'd be better off using those grandpa weeders to uproot them after they've bloomed. I does seem kind of a waste, but they are already fighting to retain traditions around *native* species foraging, let alone *invasive* species like dandelions...
I’m plagued with well established Docks, with huge roots! They are a nightmare. My veg garden is an old paddock, so it’s pretty wild . Even digging with forks & spades barely touches the amount I’ve got 😏 ……HELP! 🙏
I've got a Grampa's Weeder, and it is very effective. When I lived in the UK, I had a TINY Dutch hoe on pole, loved it. But I figured I could replace it once I moved to NZ. Nope. I can buy big Dutch hoes, but not the tiny one that was absolutely perfect for weeding in my veggie beds. Wish now I'd just taken it off the pole and brought it with me...
Not one Sneeboer Garden Tools How can you make this misstake. Sneeboer rakes are amazing and quality stainless steel. Come on, their 5 tine rake is really sharp and breaks up hard soil with ease,
I use a SpeedWeeder. Single (blunt) hook on a short handle, all made from one piece of metal. Looks like a slimline, tight Cobra, but no flat bit. Made in New Zealand, bought about 8 years ago at Hardwick Hall, National Trust, under £10. Worth every penny, constantly in use at the allotment. Used so much, it's beginning to wear out!
There look to be very similar weeders for a cheaper price point: www.fruugo.co.uk/weeder-and-cultivator-garden-tool-hand/p-263027025-577527708?language=en&ac=croud&asc=pmax&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwgrO4BhC2ARIsAKQ7zUmujbp4N8QHOcF3FKWKXJ55LU42eNB_PeWLZyTjJcwCgDPjeYlkWPwaAjWjEALw_wcB

Thank you great information

Cobrahead has been around for years on end. Dandelions are not weeds but an excellent food source.
