How to remove shrubs🌳🌳 easy? Shrub removal without a shovel, but with a reciprocating saw. I found myself struggling when doing a plant removal using just shovels. It could get tiring pretty quick
When you know better you do better.This was one the best landscape tips i learned last year, when searching through youtube.⛏🪓.
Thanks to Keith Kalfas, I saved myself time & labor on some of the shrub removal tear out jobs I had for this past season. The reciprocating saw is a simple & small tool you could carry within the 🛻 truck's toolbox, that is highly effective on the job. Share what tool you are using in the comment section below. Hope you enjoy the video.🤟🏾😁

What tool do you feel is the best and easiest to remove shrubs?

@captbill279 3 года назад

Invest in the Diablo CARBIDE 12 inch blades. Make sure its is carbide tipped not just carbide. Much more life out of these blades. Three pack for about $30. Get yourself a 5 amp hour or better battery or two. The small batteries don't have the power or runtime you want for digging up shrubs. Good idea to use a cheaper tool line like Hart since you are digging in the dirt with it. I am hesitant to use my fancy Makita. Thanks for the demo

@robertpaidprice 3 года назад

@@captbill279 Best blades out there IMO Diablo 👍👍👍. I tend to look for 3-6 TPI. I have now upgraded to a dewalt plug in for more extensive use without having to worry about the battery. Thanks for watching.

First my friend you need to cut all branches down to stump. That way it's much easier to work. Second that Kobalt saw is not strong enough and that battery will last about 15 minutes. Buy a Milwaukee Super Sawsall and that's all you need plus the shovel to pop it out. Good luck!

@robertpaidprice 3 года назад

@deanm8517 Месяц назад

A little bit of shoveling around just to remove most dirt. Would save the blade from dulling so fast. By not sawing through the dirt.

@robertpaidprice Месяц назад

As I've made more videos, I went into more details for easy removal. Here is a link to my other video where I removed 17 shrubs. The length of the blade, TPI of the blade, the type of blade all matters and makes a huge difference with cutting through the roots of the shrubs. I use 9" Diablo Pruning Blades for durability (less bend) and 12" Diablo Pruning Blades for reach under shrub (reach) . The less TPI the better, i typically use anything under 10 TPI (6 tpi, 9tpi. By using the 12" blade you will unlikely need to use strength to move the shrub back and forth. I hope this clarity helps. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1d3ckCR9rtQ.htmlsi=u2y_xOwTL2p2OdYU

@tonya4496 2 года назад

You so smart

@jontnoneya3404 10 месяцев назад

Bro - you can get a 9 amp reciprocating saw from Harbor Freight for like $50. It's corded but will have WAY more power than the battery operated HART tool you got there. Also, some Diablo Pruning Blades, they say PRUNING right on the side and have low teeth per inch which will cut right through those roots. You can get them in either 9" or 12" and they're made for destroying wood! haha

@rolandedrummer9723 2 года назад

I mostly do this kind of thing just at my own property ,but a cordless or corded saw with good blades makes the difference. Zip right through it.

@kybble 3 месяца назад

I would say he needs a more longer and more aggressive blade on that saw.

@robertpaidprice 3 месяца назад

Each blade has its purpose I now use 12" & 9 " blades. The 12" I use to get depth cut under the root ball. However, the cons of the length is that it is a little more flimsy so if the blade taps a rock head on the blade bends very easily. The 9" blade is very durable and cuts through almost any root. Cons: It is short so some areas are unaccessible unless you dig with a shovel to get deeper. The best blades are the Carbide 3-9 Tpi Diablo blades 👌🏾👍👍

@lynnd627 Год назад

Wondering how would this differ if you wanted to actually keep the shrubs and transplant them. It took me 3 days to move three 5-6 ft 10 year old hydrangeas last year. Used root slayer spade and a lot of sweat. and prob a few tears, i just cut a wide swath around to preserve as much root as feasible and went from there. It did take a lot of coaxing, But despite the abuse, and the severing of roots to a degree I was able to re home them, and they are coming back this year - one much better than the others but hey. even that was a win. But it was a lot of work. I'm sure there is a better way, or an easier way. I have another 4 to move, just waiting for temps to lower a little.

@robertpaidprice Год назад

As you mentioned, cutting a bit wider can allow you to preserve the health of the plant and relocate. I have relocated many plants with this method. In the process of relocating, I also trimmed off foliage from the top to encourage plant growth to take root in the new area.

@diannaslonecker4199 Год назад

I'd like to know how this worked over the long term. Did a few roots come back up ? I'd be ok if I had to do this a few times to redo to get the deeper mess.

@robertpaidprice Год назад

From my experience, I still have no returning growth.

@lindseythomas1261 2 года назад

I unfortunately have landscaping rock and not mulch. Would the saw method be problematic? I would clear away as much as possible, but not sure if it would be an ok idea to try?

@robertpaidprice 2 года назад

Cut close to the root ball you should be fine

@robertpaidprice 2 года назад

Move as many rocks from the cut space as possible it is worth the time. Otherwise, it will be a headache trying to cut pass rocks.

@chanderkrishnamurthy3681 Год назад

I literally purchased at local walmart at the time of this video. Here is the link www.walmart.com/ip/HART-20-Volt-Reciprocating-Saw-Battery-Not-Included/860435050 The price for this machine has slightly increased I would suggest a Dewalt or Milwaukee version for the price.

@MickeyMetalmjl 11 месяцев назад

I'm in the midst of extracting about 20 50 year old shrubs. I'm doing it like you but after cutting around the roots of the shrub there is a large root underneath that I need to dig out

@robertpaidprice 9 месяцев назад

I usually alternate. I use the 9" blades for durability and 12" blades for reach. Both blades preferably below 9 tpi Diablo pruning blades.

@maryannschewe7939 Год назад

My reciprocating saw is electric. Will I get a shock if I hit a small rock?

@robertpaidprice Год назад

No. The saw being used in this video is electric as well.

@alhent 3 года назад

Do you need to wet the soil first??

@robertpaidprice 3 года назад

No. However, moisture may help the blade maneuver slighlty better if it is compacted soil. The blade should cut through it all.
