Are you going to remove the rest of that girdling root or does cutting just that section out prevent further girdling of the other large roots it is crossing over?
We removed it where it was constricting buttress roots. It is not necessary to dig it completely out of the ground if it’s not strangling the vascular tissues of the main roots or tree flare.
Another video I watched said the #1 factor was his answer (buried root collar/flare). It said another factor was if the original tree from the nursery was in a pot, with roots circling, and when you initially plant it you don't properly loosen the root ball.
Yes i just told customers about this..how silver maples were planted wrong abd to close.to each other and the buildings..commercial..also they have bark disease

Thank you for the knowledge.

same question in mind

It doesn't matter time of year to cut out a girdling root?
Good info. What causes a root to do that?
Some species like Maples are prone to it, but a buried root collar will make the development of these girdling roots much more likely.
