I love that people mow all day then come home and watch other people mow😂
Dudeeee. Thats me😂
Mowing pr0n
That’s facts I do that all the time
Haha exactly🤣 same here
Are you stalking me? Lmao
Reese doing the weeds, nice 👍. Jason taking the tool and running it up to a whole new level when I thought he was just gonna show off - priceless. You know just what you are doing with that tool - epic. Big thumbs up! 👍
Haha thanks Peter 👍
@@AmbrosLandscapingInc couple questions for you! I’f you spray weeds will the soil be affected if you want to start planting things in that area? Somebody said that one day and it freaked me out that I wouldn’t be able to plant things in that area afterwards, I want to landscape an area for my parents weve been struggling with a ton of weeds! I was going to tarp the area and starve the plants of water and sun what do you think I should do?! We have a lot of weeds and have been fighting them for years!
And do they sell the edge pro in electric instead of gas and if so where can I buy one?!
@@tanisgeorgetti7317 if you are going to plant vegetable or plants where you would be consuming for food I would recommend an all natural spray such as "Burnout"...or a natural blend of vinigar and dawn soap will work very well also. In my 10 years of spraying weeds we have had no problems with planting plants or shrubs afterwards since we use a lower mixture rate. The only weed control I know that would prevent you from planting anything afterwards were granual weed applications such as Carson. You can purchase the EDGIT PRO on either their website or ebay. Hope this helps!
Well, I disagree. Pulling the weed is getting rid of the weed. Spraying just means they will come back within 2 weeks.
@@blueskies6475 you must not know how spray works...
I wage a weekly war with the weeds in my yard and this was extremely satisfying to watch XD sincerely, brothers in arms against the weed army
Great video. Where can the shield be purchased? Thank you for the information. 🤔
Thanks for the great video! Educational,informative and some humor. You just saved me a lot of time and back breaking work. Thanks bro!
Cool, now I know how to create more weeds in the beds!
Your welcome! Now you will work forever
You showed wees the pace that the boss does it...LOL
would that work on a yard with a lot of pebbles? or do you know a way to pull weeds out on a yard with a lot of pebbles? thank you for any input!
Vinegar works better than roundup. Because it doesn't kill the earth.
Glad your back to uploading regularly you have the best viedos
Thanks man really appreciate the support 👍
I totally agree with you Bakers Lawn Care
That section you showed in the beginning is exactly what 10 percent of my lawn looks like.
The kid was doing a better job than the other guy! 🤣
What spray do you recommend for weeds? I used to use round up but i hear thats really bad for your health
Great content Louisville Kentucky watching keep videos coming sir
Can you make a video on how to charge commercial properties like that.
I just sprayed some plants that look like they were intended to be part of the flower bed but have just grown everywhere and look awful. I'm going to wait for them to die and do exactly like you do and weed wack them. You get it done nice and easy, I like it.
I use the edger to get weeds while im edging the beds. I can usually get the root out with the plant. It doesn't throw grass out of the bed. Looks ok after the green grass dries out...
Will the weed whacker work good for bigger & higher weeds?
Great mate... from Aussie land. Learnt a lot.👍
Paddy Pimblett running the weed whaka yo😂
what would you suggest for grass poofs on a rock mountain/backyard? I have to cut them down all the time for brush clearance. They just grow back. Help!!
No need for cable subscription when there’s Ambrose Landscaping ! Good to see you uploading Buddy
Thanks brotha appreciate the support 👊
I’m watching this instead of going out and weed whacking my yard.
That’s an amazing Weedwhacker. That’s nothing like what I have
How would that method work on a gravel driveway? I tried a weed tracker with a normal cover and it just through up the gravel
Thank you for your time 👋👋👍🏽
This actually the reason why I take of the plastic shield to get under shrubs stuff were it doesn’t fit with the shield
Funny story, I had a shrub cutter (basically just a circ saw blade) on my Stihl weed Wacker and did about 2 acres of tumbleweeds and various other plants with the safety shield on (leaving the stubs) when I finished the field I took a step back and tripped on a stub and tried to throw the Stihl away from me but because of the angle of me turning around to go back to the truck I threw the base away and the spinning blade right up into My right forearm which cut all my tendons off, when people talk about shark attacks and how they just felt a Tug, that's how it felt. I got em all reattached but it was a scary time. doctor even put my tattoo sleeve back together and you almost can't tell it happened 🤣
Yea pack a wAcker for 10 hours a day that shield adds extra weight
@@Bigshoots86
That's a "funny" story?
@@Bigshoots86 That's why, when someone suggests doing away with a safety feature, my inner mom screams "NO!!!!!!!!!
On a steep hillside like that I'd be inclined to let whatever would grow on it grow there as it would help to control soil erosion. Looks like a good spot to plant kudzu, lol.
Finally somebody using a machine for what it intended to do LOL Hence the name weed eater. Love the vid . ty for sharing
For perennial beds, I find that using spray is not efficient. Overspray causes damage to flowering plants and trees, and then you have dead weeds hanging around for too long. I have gotten so fast using a Hori Hori knife, it is just as fast to use my knife and dig up all the weeds and then they are GONE right away and no need to go back and clean up the dead and dying weeds. There is no danger to wildlife and no damage to nearby lawn, plants or trees. I learned the hard way using Gly 4 spray. Just using my knife and good old hard work does a beautiful job and no danger to the environment. I have enormous and beautiful flower beds and not just a tiny garden either. I am no youngster, so I'm always looking for easier ways to weed as well. Thanks for a good video. I do love using my weedwhacker upside down to do edging. It works great.
That does work really well. I had one a couple years ago but I didn’t like the extra weight and could never get used to it.
Ya it does take time to get used to it..I tell anyone I'm training it takes about a month.
@@maggiedahl367 Awesome comment!!!
@@AmbrosLandscapingInc nice job

Good video!
Hi, can you advise where that guard on the trimmer is available from?
Curiosity question only: On the round guard plate to this trimmer shown in this video, is is something that came with it or something modified to fit on it? Is it a Husqvarna accessory or something? I can't seem to locate such at their site and was also wondering it it adapts to other models of the Husqvarna battery-powered line trimmers? Thanks for any into on it.
It was designed by a separate company called "EDGIT PRO"...They used to only make them for Echo and Stihl trimmers back in the day but have included other brands such as Husqvarna...I don't know if they will work on battery powered trimmers though. Edgitpro.com is their website
Can I ask what you spray with - nothing seems to be killing my persistent weeds
what ear protection do you use?
Well who would have thought when you go from 1 video a month to 3 you get more views. Keep it up people like to live vicariously.
Haha 😂 who knew
Ok that looks amazing! So the blade isn’t turning? just the string?
I just had same exact type hole just happened lik a crazy sniper shot was nutts went thru screen and glass lik a bullet happened cus I had one string on trimmer full rpm on Stihl.. 33 cc multi tool great video .. I didn't think it was me either but lady totally witness Ed it
You should leave weeds on the hill or plant some cover plants because otherwise rain water will take bare soil away.
Yes! Either that or some kind of mulch that won't wash away. Never leave bare soil; it looks bad and will always be a problem.
Mulch Lock…Mulch Lock…Mulch Lock.
I am sure he knows and would love to upsell them, but you get wgat you pay for.
what is the purpose of the attachment on the trimmer head?
We use sure guard as a pre emergent in the early spring and it works great! Keeps about 95% of the weeds out the whole season. Its expensive but it saves on so many man hrs and it paid for itself the first day. Its Its highly concentrated, 1 bottle covers 4 acres. When we are in the middle of the season for any places that have never been treated we mix round up with sure guard and all the weeds are gone for the rest of the year. Iron sharps Iron. Keep up the great videos!
Thank for the info on the edgit pro. That will save my wifes flowers and make it so much easier to clean my landscaping.
Can you get that head attachment for a craftsman weed eater?? Or is it a completely different design from a normal weed eater I can’t tell. This would do great in my flowerbeds where my mulch won’t go all over the place!!! Thanks. Let me know. Great video.
Can you do a video on the right way to trim weeds in a front yard? I feel like I am doing it all wrong (just moved into a rental home about a month ago). The first time I did it I mowed the lawn first then took the whacker and went to wherever I saw weeds sticking up. They seem to grow back just as tall in a day or two. I thought about going left to right over entire yard but it seemed like it would take forever and weeds are not everywhere. If you could do a video showing the way that you do it would appreciate. Thanks! :)
You have to get to the roots .. 2 choices .. either hands and knees and dig for them or... use the spray to kill them for you
Great video Ambro's Landscaping, I love the riding shotgun videos! If you do that with a regular trimmer you would get covered in mulch! Where can I get one of those guards ? I see other landscaping TH-camrs use it also!
You can either get them on their website or ebay...just type in "Edgit Pro" and pick the right one for your trimmer
Ambro's Landscaping Inc. thank you it will be here in three days!
Here is what I was looking for.
What is the name of the cover you have on your weed wacker? Do you have a link?
What is that plate acting as a trimmer guide and where do I get one?
Yeah, no debreese problem.
When I used my edger along a gravel driveway, I set up a sawhorse and a sheet of plywood to stop the small stones I had slinging off.
Not enough momentum to ricochet if you angle the plywood.
Looks weird for thirty minutes and after cleanup, you use a rake to put the gravel back.
Best yard around there.
The new people ruined it.
Id like to see people doing this on rock beds to see what techniques work best
I think this has been my problem pulling weeds in my lawn, don't get it all, and it comes back. So once it starts dying from something like a 3-way, its safe to pull and the root is dead fo show?
get a weed puller put your back into it, get the roots. it takes a couple years, but your yard will look amazing like mine does.no chemicals at all.
What do you spray the weeds with?
How about near gutters or rendered walls where the walls crack if you trim there? Hard to reach places? Some hand cutters or scissors??? Love this video by the way!
The guard you have on your weed wackier is one I have been looking for. Would you be willing to give me a the information where I can get one? Thank you!!
Yes...it's called the "Edgit Pro" and can buy it off their website or on ebay
What kind of cutter is on the end of weedwacker
Thanks. Great advice.
Second window in fifteen years tho just got. Rekless in heat love the Stihl multitool
Hey, can someone please let me know what grass trimmers come with that guard? It looks to really cover well... and I can't find them anywhere. Or is it an add-on? Also who makes that grass trimmer... thank you!!
The guard in this video is called the "Edgit-Pro" which you purchase seperate from the trimmer. You can buy it on their website or Ebay. The trimmer in this video is the Stihl FS-94R
First video of yours I watch but I just thought I'd chime in on behalf of your apprentice. When you took over, it was quick, but it won't teach him as well. Your explanation of "why" do things a certain way was great because it makes things memorable, but he would learn better by doing than watching.
Brilliant mate, I need one for myself I have to use a spade and it so tiring 😂😂😂
why. i use my trimmer
@@valleygirl670 Trimmer doesn't do it from the root though does it.
what did you use to kill the weeds? I want to kill weeds in an area that I have no intention of ever growing anything, just want a clean look
I pull weed after it rains, comes up easy and no poison sprays.
Yeah, I water the part where I'm gonna weed for an hour before weeding. You can pretty much just grab them.
You are so correct just yesterday I found that out after using so much chemicals trying to get rid off weeds. After using the weedeater and I ran out of gas I decided to just try and pull out a few of the weeds. To my surprise.... they just pulled right out. Most of them anyways. From now on no more chemicals.
I am finding that Preen does not work very well this year. Have they changed the formula? Also, I cannot find a product that actually kills the weeds. Can you recommend a product that works well?
Weeds in grass or flower beds? I use a product called "Imitator:...similar to round up for weeds in flower beds and "foundation" for broadleaf weeds in grass. Mix in a pre-emirgent for future prevention, the one I use is called "baracade"
What’s the disc cover for the weed eater head called???
Which insurance do you have?
What do you spray the weeds with
The human race has to stop using roundup
Why
@@diggadee7889 it kills people
And Digga dee never did find out the , "Why".
@@abigalerichard3679 🤣
@@abigalerichard3679 haha!!
Looks good.
Can weed eaters completely remove patches of grass/weed that have grown on the side of my yard
that looks to e a stihl but what model is it?\
I need to get a beefy weedeater
? What type of string head, are you using ? Is it some newer design, from Stihl ? I have an FS 40 whacker, Stihl. With several types of string heads......never seen a disklike, type, like this one before ? ( i also made a saw, using skill saw blade, on a cutoff 9/16 socket; welded blade to it and screws onto trimmer drive nut. Works great. (use about a 30 tooth blade) Use the right hand side guard, as saw guide, so the blade turning, is pulling AWAY from you )
How do I trim weed in a rocky ground , between rocks ... ?
Love the video
I moved into my house six years ago. The yard had thick healthy grass, not a weed anywhere. There is a bad hill out front; I see it slipping away every year. Now there is no top soil, no favorable grass; just weeds that seem to have a growing season; when one flavor dies away, another takes its place. I, too, have developed a weed trimming style: I start at the curb at the street sweeping upward, but I have to leave something there to try to hold some of the dead dirt in place. I found on TH-cam a couple years back, to lay down a certain bark or compost after reviving the soil and planting a ground cover (or something); and that no rain/water will wash it away...........Any ideas??
That works great in open areas but what happens when you got weed in your grass. Kind a hard to do that without. Tearing up your grass
If you have weeds in your grass (lawn) use a broadleaf killer since it won't kill the grass.
what would be the best method to deal with wild burdock plants? I need to find a better way to keep these from growing back... they grow so fast......I cut them down to bald dirt every season but they grow back full force every year... I'm assuming I have to pour something on the earth after I cut them down??
We are looking for something other than (and safer than) using herbicides. May those answers come forward in Godspeed and with much Love. Help. Thanks. Amen.
May you find the perfect solution for your situation.
Okay. UT if you have e a pre-existing flower bed how to kill w/o killing plants??? I use Preen and I try and pull but it is a lot of work.....🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️😰😰😰😰😰
My neighbor was a landscaper and he was using chemicals for many years. He barely survived a long battle with cancer. Just sayin’.
Its now been proven without a doubt roundup is causing cancer in people who used it commercially, its poison.
I agree...but then again what do we not get cancer from nowadays?
@@AmbrosLandscapingInc yeah but roundup is a guarentee of cancer.
well good point, in the EU chemicals are banned. Which i miss the chems being american but you get used to pulling weeds by hand. ugh
@@AmbrosLandscapingInc really bro? "but then again what do we not get cancer from nowadays?" that is not preaching safe landscaping as a role model.
What blade to you use?
Is the choke on?
What about in rocks? I’ve pulled several times and sprayed.
Can you use this on rock areas
What do you use for weed killer
Can I add that accessory to a Sthill 45?
I live in the desert where the landscaping is rock will the weed wacker work there?
Depending on the size of rock...large rocks are fine since the string won't fling them around but I would recommend small rocks at all or anything the string can move
All the ladies out there are asking me why you aren't wearing a face shield to protect that handsome face of yours. I'm telling them that real men don't wear face shields. Cheers from the Land Down Under where face shields are definitely an optional extra :)
Many seeds require being turned under the soil to start germinating. I control weeds without any digging and minimal soil disruption. I pull any weeds with seed heads and throw them away. Wet the soil first for easier pulling. I use Roundup on the young weeds that are not in vegtable gardens or fruit tree planters. Minimum concentration and spot applications only. As with any poison, the concentrate is the most harmful. When mixing Roundup don't get it on your skin. Spray by hand and close to the ground when there is no or minimal wind.
You're leaving the roots, which makes the roots stronger and if you have a lot of weeds that can be severely bad. Those roots will get bigger and stronger and deeper. I know I've seen it.
This is great i you can use chemicals but I can't being very sensitive to them.
Wish I knew how to do this in rocks lol. I kinda did it today but didn’t get them all
So this popped up on my YT rec's list and I thought "Dang! That sure looks like the Costco where I live!" Turns out, it is. I've never broken any glass with a weed eater, but I have with my riding mower when I had the deck too low and drove up on the gravel pad. It broke a window in my car AND the front of my house. Now I move the cars before I mow and pay more attention to where the chute is pointed.

What is the attachment on the weeder? I think he said it, but I could not follow.
It's called the "Edgit Pro"
How did you land that job?
Will that blade work on a brick sidewalk ?
We can only do it were their is no mulch right?
the grass is slowly covering my asphalt driveway gotta fix that before i be driving on grass lol
5/27/24 What about removing overgrowth of weeds in a rock bed?
Do they make battery ones?
