The Flame Shroud converts a compatible backpack torch into a rolling bed flamer for more even coverage during pre-emergence flame weeding and stale seedbed preparation.
The shroud clamps onto a standard torch head with an approximately 2"–2.5" bell diameter.

Simple Flame-Weeding Solution
Target Weeds, Not the Soil
Designed to Minimize Soil Impact
Soil is an excellent insulator, so flame weeding does not significantly affect the life within the soil. At Neversink, we use flame weeding and planting as an alternative to plastic mulch.
The Flame
What You Need
Tank — 10 lb tank recommended or smaller.
Torch — We have tested the following torches and confirmed they fit the hood. We have not tested other torches.
Regulator — Required to control propane flow. Adjustable Regulator
Backpack — Use a comfortable backpack that securely fits the selected propane tank.
Squeeze Valve
Recommended
This valve lets you light and transport the flame weeder with a low, adjustable pilot flame. Depressing the handle fully engages the regulator setting. For the Flame Shroud, use the standard Valve variant without the handle or Blaze mounting bracket.
