Weeds come in all shapes and size. The unique gripping action of the Rocket Weeder pulls out even the biggest toughest weeds, root and all without damaging the surrounding turf or ground cover. It actually grabs the weed without breaking off the roots, while the ergonomic handle does most of the work by simply rotating the weed and root up out of the ground. The ejector button deposits the weed where you want it and keeps your hands clean. Weeding has never been easier or more satisfying.

Large weeds a problem

Great overall. Works best with loose, damp soil. It's a problem getting to the base of big weeds as the prongs going into the ground are only one inch apart. We grow some big dandelions in Texas!
