Leesburg, Ohio | ................."I've never seen a tile just completely filled with anything if it has the right slope and no other issues."............
Spent parts of several days this spring and many springs in the past digging up and fixing tile holes resulting from tile being completely plugged with roots. Not rye roots...some were fescue or other grass roots, one location was tree roots. We have one tile by a waterway on one farm that has given us trouble for 20 years...every time we dig it up to fix it, long sections are totally plugged with roots. We fix it, and by the next year or two, it is plugged again. This one is on a fairly steep grade.
Yes, a small amount of roots might not hurt anything for a while. But some can grow very rapidly, and then they can completely plug the tile and cause large blow holes. | |
