The majority of hedge cutting should be behind you now with perhaps just a few deciduous hedges such as hawthorn or beech that need tidying up.
With the sap now firmly en-route to the root, we can start to turn attention to pruning larger stems and branches.
Professionals tend to buy one piece of kit for each job. A chainsaw for cutting branches, a strimmer or brushcutter for long grass and brambles and a hedge cutter for hedges.
At the end of the grass season, the strimmer is stored away and at the end of the hedge and pruning season. the hedgecutter and chainsaw are stored away meaning that for the best part of a gardening year, some machines are doing nothing.
