How to remove stump

When planning a site, breakdown of the garden, the creation of landscape design of the local area, the stumps are a serious interference. And on the site of your beloved, but the tagged tree does not always want to observe his balance. In such a situation, it is necessary to remove the stump, and it turns out that it can be done in different ways.

The most traditional method is the knocker with his own hands. We store the necessary inventory: a shovel, an ax, saw, rope. Try to check a couple of assistants with good physical strength. Drop the stump lying to a depth of about half a meter. At this stage, the thick roots will be shown, they repent or rub the ax. The central part of the stump loosen, and then we bind the rope and pull out manually or by the winch.

The process described can be considerably simplified if used water supply and hose. Previously dig a hole at a meter from a stump with a slightly large volume than the pit around the barrel residue. Water blurring soil will be flushing here. Next, create a strong water jet pressure and send it to the root system. Soft soil bare roots and the main part of the stump is taken relatively easy.

If the stump interferes only from aesthetic considerations, it is enough to cut off the visible part. Around the object we create a small recess and at this level (just below the surface of the soil) we cut the base with chainsaw. On top of wood laying a layer of land, sow grass and enjoy the view of a flat, holistic lawn.

When there is no possibility or desire to work physically, the special equipment will come to the aid. The tractor or an excavator easily induced the stump along with the root system. Forest milling cutter (it is the chopper of the stump) quite neatly crushes the wood outside and under the surface of the soil, resulting in hydrofins and pipes. The obvious minus of such "workers" is the high cost of their lease. In addition, the method is suitable only for those stumps to which the technique will be able to freely drive through the territory of the site.

One of the most modern methods of struggle with wood residues is the use of various chemicals. Topics have proven to be well established:

Kaliya, sodium nitrate. Throughout the cut of the stump drills deep holes, fill in them with saltere, we rush from the top with water and cooled with a polyethylene film. The procedure is better done in the fall to leave the stump loanted until the spring. During this time, the wood is soaked in a substance and partially decomposed, we will only get a trunk stump. Together with the above-ground part, the root will be reversed, since the nitrate highlights a lot of oxygen. The removal of stumps with arson can be produced on clay or sandy soil, but on peat ground such an undertaking will be very dangerous.
Ammonia fertilizer (urea). It is laid in the same way as the nitrate, shelters film, but the fire does not apply here. It will take more time to utilization, however, by his passage, the processed area will become very fertile.
Herbicide of common action. Removes weeds and stumps along with the root. Chemicals should be used according to the manufacturer's instructions. Most of the herbicides are harmless to the soil, after their application you can immediately plant new cultures.

Distribution of the stump can not only active chemical compounds, but even a singe salt. By the above, the described principle drills in a cut of the holes, we fall asleep salt, we water water, cover. After 1-2 years, wood will turn into a duch. The disadvantage of this approach is the excessive soil salinity, because of which some time the plants will not hold here.

When the removal of the stump is only planned, it is important to take into account all aspects of the upcoming work: which methods are more acceptable, which will be located on the site of old wood and whether the fertile soil is needed, how appropriate is all the undertaking. With a correct assessment of the situation and thorough preparation, the deliverance from stump will pass correctly and smoothly.
