[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 4750519, member: 1409"] Me, too, especially with trash trees. What I often see happen is we end up with a multi-trunked tree that, after only a few years (if not killed), ends up being about as large as the nearby trees not cut. Apparently, the "cut" tree is able to benefit from its advanced root structure allowing it to "catch up" and grow much faster than a seedling tree. The lower you can cut, the better, but it's often hard to get at ground level without actually having your blade hit the ground which often contains blade-dulling rocks. Also, some trees will actually be "like rock" at ground level, while the wood is much softer & easier to cut at "shin" level. [/QUOTE]
