Dunal] is a new niche tree fruit crop for small farmers in the eastern United States. Flame cultivation offers an organic alternative to herbicide application for the control of grass and perennial weeds and uses a torch-directed flame to kill weeds by causing the plant cells to rupture. The objectives of this study were to determine if flame cultivation with a backpack flamer would control grass/weed coverage around pawpaw trees without damage to trunks, and if flame cultivation is economically viable. A completely randomized experimental design was implemented using 12 five-year-old seedling trees treated with either 1) control (weed eating), 2) flaming with avoidance of the trunk, and 3) flaming without avoiding flame contact with the trunk. There were four replicate trees in each treatment. On July 25 and August 2 and 18, 2006, a three-foot area around treatment trees was either subjected to the flaming treatments or weed eating (to a height of 2 inches). On August 25, and September 8 and 15, 2006, re-growth in plots was rated from 1 to 10, with 1 having no grass/weed coverage and 10 having total grass/weed coverage. By August 25, all flame plots had significantly less grass/weed coverage (about 2.25 rating) than control plots (7.75). On September 15, flame treatment plots had increased grass/weed coverage (about 4.75), but less coverage than control plots (9.5). By September 15, trees in either flaming treatment did not display noticeable trunk damage or wilting.
