Hi. I am wondering if you would recommend a chipper/shredder for what I would like to do - and if anyone has any recommendations.
I would mainly be grinding up fairly small branches off of shrubs and understory trees that I have pruned, branches that fall on the ground, and perennials that I have cut down in the spring, and for grinding up leaves - though that is not absolutely necessary - since I already have a leaflbower/shredder and I can also grind up the leaves with my lawnmower.
I'd like to put the waste in my composter to eventually mulch my perennial and shrub beds with. All of the ones I see, say they will take up to 3" branches which seems kind of excessive for what I'd be doing. Are there ones that are less expensive for just smaller branches, but that still work, or am I better off going with one that can handle larger just in case.
