Having just seen the linked vid, I can see that he does more or less that, simply breaks them.
This is the trick with all weeds allegedly, they grow from the top so if you keep cutting them they go away, unlikem grass. So if you have weeds in your lawn just keep mowing it but TAKE THE CUTTINGS AWAY.
Theory coming from our Deputy Head Green keeper-on-a-golf-course son-in-law.
This is what I have been unable to do on our land over here, with my big machine as it mulches the brush cuttings as it goes.
So, yessdi I modified an old blade off it by cutting off the bits on the back of the blade that do the mulching.
Next time I use it I am hoping that then it'll leave bigger cuttings which I can then rake off.
We'll see!!

Workman coming to rehang my bathroom door ( 5th Attempt )
Workman coming to fix tiles he refixed on Tuesday last, still loose and not sealed around window.
Started weeding path but it's tooo hot
Stay cool and shaded all
Loose tile fixed with sealant , magic sealant
Joiner (I use the term loosely) said old door wasn't thick enough so off he went for a new one
Joiner back with new door, 35mm just same as the one he said wasn't thick enough
Anyway, door fitted and he went.
Inspector called to check door etc and said it wont do..... It creaks like flippin eck and theres a 6mm gap at hinge side and it's flush at lock side, also he cut too much off top of door exposing the cardboard interior

Managed to flood our guest bathroom and have water coming through our kitchen ceiling on his last visit and today announces that he has broken the toilet seat in the guest bathroom on this visit.
Oh, and can he stay an extra day please?

Usually cut evenly from each side. And normally max 10 - 15mm cut at each side.That's an idea,
Also should be cut from the bottom

He was looking at jap knot weed. Eye dun't fink yer allowed to cut or diggit up yerself. Snapping it ain't in the rules. Yer not moving it to another location in yer garden. Yer need a linence to do all that. Snapping it stops it's feeding its roots.
Edit just seen yer uvva post
