Root Pruning The Big Oak | VLOG 011
Channel: GreenShortz + GreenHouse
Date: 2017-05-10

Stepping back in time a little from the concrete walls pour, I show how I prune some larger tree roots exposed by the foundation excavation.

Chris Barneycastle, a friend and certified arborist in Georgia, gave me the simple instructions I followed to prune and cover the roots. This will help the tree seal off the wound and grow new roots at the clean cut. Left ragged and exposed to the air, the roots would have been susceptible to bug infestation, disease and rot.
