He ripped the plot and brought his own tiller and tilled it. I had 3 very large piles of topsoil and roots to move. Got most of that out of the way. The dirt is ready to plant except for where I ran over it with the tractor moving the scraps with the bucket. Which I will till back up.

I will spread the dirt and roots back over the when the roots decay in a year or 3.

Nope it ain't great I lost that much topsoil with the roots. But I have a workable field to plant. It is what it is. Just feeding deer for fun.
