I am prepping for my trees this weekend. I have 25 7/16 B.118 rootstock coming. I am planting these direct in the field as an experiment. They are coming from cummins. How big of rootball will they have. Should I pre dig the holes with an excavater or will they be small enough to slip in with a shovel? I will have a 24" bucket so it will be a decent size hole. I don't want to make more work filling in the holes then if I just dug them by hand. I do have a lot of rocks if that matters one way or another.
