Yeow! Better not see one of those things in my front yard. That thing could make short work of a nice landscaped lawn in a hurry.

Only for the small ones. They got a poor survival rate too.
We tried this 25years* ago with a 20-25ft spruce. Poor thing died after ~7month.



*damn, I'm getting old. :(

Clearly they dont have boulders and rocks in that area... It wouldn't work in my yard for sure. We got lumps the size of wheel barrels beneath the sods :-D

Hmm wonder why if they're not damaged?..different soils/earth maybe

I could see that either pushing them to the side or bringing them up with it for the most part.

Some big hydraulics on that thing

Because your chopping off the biggest part of their roots - maybe? ;)

Frankly for such a small one : two friends a shovel and a pack of beer would do the trick.

No need to put mud all your backyard with such a sherman.
