I've removed a very large number of buckthorn that has left root branches ranging from 1/2 inch to 2 inches. I would like to remove these, prep the soil and seed.
What's the best way to get rid of these? They seem too small for a chipper. Can I use a tiller to loosen the branch and remove by shovel?
