Impractical. The principal product of a typical gravity bomb is not blast but shrapnel.

Mind-blowing’: tenth of world’s giant sequoias may have been destroyed by a single fire
“I cannot overemphasize how mind-blowing this is for all of us. These trees have lived for thousands of years. They’ve survived dozens of wildfires already,” said Christy Brigham, the chief of resources management and science at Sequoia and Kings Canyon national parks.
Giant sequoias only grow in the peaks and valleys of a small central range of California’s Sierra Nevada. Because of the trees’ concentrated range, last year’s fire managed to literally decimate part of the world’s remaining population of the unique flora.

Well that's not true. The1930's was by far and away much worse and has been declining ever since.
