I have been planting bare-root seedlings with a shovel and like to make a bigger hole as a lot of the bare roots are of good size..
I do have access to both a rear PTO driven tractor for use of an auger and also small backhoe.. just wondering of those of you that tried either..
I know the hole should not be over doug to prevent seedlings from sinking..so with the backhoe it would just be a basic scraping back and forth and with the auger there would be a marker used to prevent that.
Any experience...thanks
