Maybe she planted those thistles and dandelions for the video?! LOL

The other thing I noticed was that her tap roots were a lot shorter than the tap roots I pull up with my weeding tool. It’s kind of like a personal triumph to me when I pull up a dandelion and the whole tap root comes out in one piece!
Hers looked like she was breaking the tap root off shortly past the main root clump.
Still, overall that would be a nice tool to have to avoid having to kneel down. We have a lot of clay here too, but I only weed in the garden beds, which I’ve managed to improve for the most part over the last 21 years. (Improve the soil that is. The abundant weeds love it!)

I don't think her tool would work on it.
The root below the long one is a trumpet vine, which continue to pop up all over the yard. I hate those things!

Try again later. Whatever the glitch is it will probably work itself out.
Switched browsers.
Epic works fine with BYC, weird.
Firefox is allowing ads.
So I am using Brave.

Raining here, all day. Got 2” Sunday. It will pour down, then drizzle. I butchered 22 chickens Monday, started processing yesterday, got 6 done and ran out of bags. Had to go to town and get more. Started over this morning. Got 2 left and I’ll be done. Still have to package up necks, liver, gizzards, clean up mess. Been playing 70’s rock and roll, great music!

Why on earth are you getting ads? You wound up with the "Golden Herd Member" status. You should be ad free. I thought that was part of the deal? That's really weird.Switched browsers.

(I paid for it too because BYC is a form I'm on a lot, but didn't get the banner, but if it doesn't mean I get to be ad free anymore, I don't think I mind not getting it)
Right. I think something with BYH changed because I am not having issues with their sister site, BYC. For now I am using Brave, which I don't like as well.

There is a difference between BYC and the 3 sister sites. BYC is so huge, that it has some different settings and procedures. The 3 sister sites seem to be identical copies of each other.
I don’t quite remember what’s different, but I remember the staff saying something about the difference at the time they changed servers in May of 2017. And I have noticed over the years that there are some things I do here that I cannot do there, and vice versa.
Another thing I’ve noticed is that when a sister site goes down, all 3 go down but BYC doesn’t. And when BYC goes down, the sister sites aren’t affected.
