Are you going to remove the rest of that girdling root or does cutting just that section out prevent further girdling of the other large roots it is crossing over?
We removed it where it was constricting buttress roots. It is not necessary to dig it completely out of the ground if it’s not strangling the vascular tissues of the main roots or tree flare.
Yes i just told customers about this..how silver maples were planted wrong abd to close.to each other and the buildings..commercial..also they have bark disease
Another video I watched said the #1 factor was his answer (buried root collar/flare). It said another factor was if the original tree from the nursery was in a pot, with roots circling, and when you initially plant it you don't properly loosen the root ball.
