This is brilliant. I have live oak roots that I have dulled axes and chainsaw blades on. That wheel is made for rock so the dirt shouldn’t dull it. I’m glad I accidentally came across this! Guess I’m adding one more thing to my things to get done tomorrow now.

You did a great job!

yeah it worked but not very fast.

I’ve used quinchlorac and surfactant on it and no results.I’ve waited 48 hours with no watering and no results . Do you have any suggestions?

You need to get an airspade and aerate around the tree and install a deep feeding/ watering pipe near the base of the tree.... the roots are spreading like that because it cannot find closer...... you are treating results... not problems.

Seems like a lot of work for the roots to still be there in the end.

Could a spoke shave work?

love this... great... thank you for the information.

wouldn't you figure out how much of something to add to the mixture before you make the video?

Gracias amigo for sharing, I appreciate it.

Love that you work on drilling rig! South Louisiana gives you shout out!

Did you have any problems growing the seed around the tree roots?

man that thing is NICE sheesh

Why the background music? It's distracting!

A surfactant is a wetting agent

Centipede grows well in dense shade.

BTW, sand blunts blades rapido

I don’t have that much of my life to waste 😂😂😂😂

Just have Hurricane Beryl as a guest. Thousands of trees uprooted.

A sawzall is a lot easier. And a lot faster!

Thank you for what I hope is the answer to my Cyprus knees/roots!

THANK YOU…. I’ve got 3 Maple trees that are giving me trouble when I mow the yard. Wouldn’t a woodworking roughing gouge wheel work better than a masonry diamond wheel? But either way, thank you for this video. I’ve been scratching my head trying to figure out how to deal with these tree roots without killing these shade trees.

I’ve got a thick sprout coming out of my tree sideways like thick has a branch at the base. Too close to trunk to saw off. Think this would work?

Where are u,Man???

Now they look like dinosaur bones. You could charge tourists to come take pictures. 🦴🦎

Great video 👍🏽

Hello from Petal!

Need some help and glad you posted this video. Have very small lawn and tree in center of lawn has roots going out of each side. Saw your video and thought good idea, but one root is already 5 to 6 feet from my house's foundation wall. Thus my question is don't I need to cut that end of the root totally out of the yard so it doesn't damage my home? Price quote I received to remove the root nearest my house was $400 and honestly can't afford that so looking for a cheaper option.

This is a great solution. My issue is with roots headed toward the sidewalk/concrete damage, but used in combination with cutting some out and grinding others down, this should work well! Thanks for posting.

What the hell. RIPSAW & SHOVEL

A cordless recip saw with a 12 inch ugly stick blade on it works too. Just cut through the root and pull it out. I have one of those dewalt disks, the recip saw works much better.

We use those diamond blades to polish concrete

handcuffed by overseeding winter grass, bring on the weeds, no pre emergent boys, just not worth it to mow in winter

Saw saw, stump grinder on tracks is best if a lot.

Did you ever stop to think about how the Pine Tree felt about this... of course not, because you only think about your needs... Kidding... this is a pretty cool idea, I'll have to try it out someday! Thanks!

Will this not get a disease in the roots

Sawzall with a demolition blade works great too. That's probably one of the safer off-label applications of a grinder though. Skip the chainsaw disks.

Is the Allett a dethatcher?

You can actually use a bread knife for this and it works amazingly well

Thank you so much!

Dude. I mix my bent seed with some sand when sowing with with a drop spreader so it doesn't all pour out.

Silly question. Why do you cut your lawn so short in an area that gets 110G heat? Wouldn't the weeds with deep roots have an easier time growing than the grass? You're pointing out clover and I couldn't even tell it was clover it was cut so short. Just asking...

Hey! Does that work great as a stump grinder? I have a nice blade on a new DeWalt grinder and a new blade in the package with no use for anytime soon...... BTW, it's used for removing OLD floor tile thin-set mortar when replacing tiles.........

I would have used a bench planer. Shaves off wood like butter. Adjust your settings I used it on my deck here. It’s easy for me as a woman to use but not many people know about it. Good to know about the tool you have… now I want one.

Great video! My OCD was screaming though because of those branch stumps you left behind - lol. I wouldn't say you "butchered it" as you said, but I would have HAD to cut them flush (or close) and sealed them off. That lawn is gonna look amazing once it all comes in. Too cold here for Bermuda. More or a Tall Fescue area around me. I cracked up about you asking permission to trim it. I had to rewind the first time because I thought I heard you wrong. Again, great video. Thank you for sharing. Be Blessed!

@Rick-the-Swift ​​⁠ I think you are right! I finally was able to get Maple tree roots off of at least three of my outdoor kennels. I used a reciprocating saw and it still took me three blades and thought I was going to die I got so hot! Hell I’m old….but Im moving soon and I need those kennels!

Bought the product but it would not allow the grinder locking ring to be used when product used on a Ryobi 18 volt angle grinder

does this affect the root by shaving the upper half of it?

Can only imagine what those flowers would cost today. Looks so amazing!
