Stumps

Garden Problems

Stumps in gardens can be troublesome, with unwanted re-sprouting or by being difficult to remove.

Identify the problem
When a tree or shrub is cut down the majority of the plant may be left in the ground as a substantial root system. The stump often re-sprouts with renewed vigour. Even if the stump is removed, some trees and shrubs will re-sprout from small pieces of the roots left in the ground.
How to solve the problem
- Sprouting stumps can be killed permanently using Weed Weapon Stump Stop Gel. It kills stumps down to the roots, preventing regrowth and making stumps easier to remove. It is safe in the soil, will not harm neighbouring plants plus it comes with a built in application brush for better application control.
- Apply Weed Weapon Stump Stop Gel immediately after cutting the stump.
- After treatment the stump can be left to rot or removed without risk of sprouting from root fragments.
