Hi there..
I am currently battling with the privet hedges in my back garden. They've always grown fast, but the height of them seems to have got a bit out of control.
I use a petrol hedge cutter which suits the sides, but I'm looking at ways of reducing the height from a current 8-9 foot to around 6 foot. The branches are thick and so I don't want to start hacking only to ruin the hedge cutter or the hedge.
The hedges are about 20 metres in length and don't particularly fancy lowering in with a saw but if needs be so be it. I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions of other methods that may work please.
Many Thanks
Dougie
