It is indeed preferable to have a 13 kg gas bottle on a cart and avoid small gadgets with disposable bottles. Consumption can be reduced to its simplest expression if care is taken to operate on time; on the other hand, this method does not exclude the use of manual uprooting whenever possible or more appropriate ...
Indeed, by locating the heat better by a flat box would be more efficient in terms of energy; the use of steam, as on the old wallpaper peelers, would be an example of what would be possible, at least for someone like you, because I can't see a product of this kind authorized for sale. . : roll:

for someone like me it's easier, I never weed! the more it grows the more I'm happy ... and I have some geese who are even more happy to find something to eat, and which are also a way to weed!

when I leave some corner alone for a few years, when I cut to make room we must not weed, we must make firewood!

You're absolutely right, but the use of power tools is limited by the structure of most aisles.

Hello,
Here is a photo taken this morning of how the roots come out with the gravel on honeycomb.

The honeycomb structure is indeed a special case: the logical application supposes an unstable aggregate which is blocked by cells at the global level. The instability persists inside the cells and allows weeds to be pulled out fairly easily, provided that we do not wait for too great a development, in which case the roots may be retained by the cell walls.
In any case, this is what I observe with concrete borders simply buried in the ground: the roots pass below, which prevents extraction (conclusion: I veered the borders!).

For me it is mainly the location, in the middle we can let it grow, but on the edges of the cells, and there are plenty, the roots can get stuck, there is hot water.
This system still limits spontaneous shoots well, on days like today the seedlings roast alone.

there are already mobile steam generators on the market: it's called a steam cleaner (Vaporeto for friends) : Mrgreen:
I have an old one which has a good flow of vapor and I confirm that it is largely as effective as the small flame throwers with disposable bottle (not tried the large ones on bombone) for weeding between terrace dales or other infractuosities ...

for aisles ... I opted to have them grassed so I don't know!
