Hello,

I built a ASAP pole and portable hole for my first mega tree this year. However, we just had new sod installed mid-June. My wife is worried about putting the portable hole down on the grass that is only 3-4 months old.

For people that have used the portable hole (or similar) how does the grass do after having such a heavy item on it for ~3 months.

Thanks in advance.
 
It might kill the grass depending on the grass species, climate, etc... Just mini trees for 3 months (Oct-Dec) killed mine... it's hot, dry, and dark in there. Some other grass grew back in those spots, so good news, it is easy to tell where they go each year without measuring.
 
I suppose the follow up question would be, do you think it would kill just were the concrete base was or entire diameter of the base (6')
