Look at what I have to play with

Spent all day yesterday digging this tree out this used to take me 2 hours but alas no longer, as I did not want the stump left in place so that I can dig the area for a veg patch. Not wanting to waste the tree even though it is only 6" diameter the root ball should make for some interesting turning once I get it cleaned up.

What will you do to clean the dirt off? Pressure washer?
I do not think therefore I do not am.

Have got some of the dirt out today but will clean as much out as possible before setting to with the washer. Then I can see what needs cutting off which will allow me to see if there is any more rubbish amongst the roots
