[QUOTE="pass-thru, post: 2107568, member: 2382"] I've seen hack and squirt discussed on here before, but I've never tried it....I usually cut them down and paint the stump. I have a very larger weed tree that has been shading out some saplings I planted in what used to be the back side of a barn...the barn is long gone but the ground is extremely fertile from years of cow crap concentrated in that area. I don't know for sure what kind of tree this is....I believe it may be a boxelder. It is approaching if not over 3' diameter. At around 7 or 8 feet up, the trunk splits off into several massive limbs going every which way. No way I could cut this down without a cherry picker. I guess my next best option is to kill it where it stands so that it stops leaching sunlight, water and nutrients. What is the proper way to hack and squirt a tree this size? Girdle it with a chainsaw and then spray concentrated herbicide in the wound? [/QUOTE]
