Why You Clean Up The Stumps
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 лип 2020
- It took me a while to get the stump grindings cleaned up. You don't want to leave the wood chips in the hole. They rob the soil of nitrogen and you won't be able to grow new grass in those areas. It has been very hot this week and my motivation to complete it was nil. I finally got it done and now I just need to get some dirt to backfill in those areas. I will then use Turf Mend Blue to repair the patches.

Looks good my friend. I’m having a huge honeylocust removed soon, so I’ll be doing the same thing. The pitchfork is key in removing mulch. So much easier than a shovel.
Good luck! Yeah, the pitchfork is key. Wish I had a long handled one, but I made due.
Looking good! Great job Jason! 👍🏻
Thanks! Can't wait to see all those bush stumps cleaned up at your place.
Very informative
Glad it was helpful!
Nice!
Totally.
Useful video, got mines grinded and no clue what to do with it, new to all this.
Glad it helped!
Stump grinding is the way to go!
It definitely is the fastest way to get rid of one.
Oh I defiantly want to see what turfmed can do. I’ll be watching.
Just started popping up today I think!!
Lawns lookin good for summer! At least you got some free mulch!
My back isn't sore anymore at least! LOL So far so good. Front yard is definitely looking good lately. Few weeds here and there but I am not worried about it.
Hard work. PITTL! Stay hydrated
Definitely gotta stay hydrated 😜
Haha, later...one week later, lol. Goin with the flow, goin with the flow. The heat is brutal. I don't blame ya leavin it. Lawn work doesn't make sense when it's this hot! Dang you mowin' low! Sweet action on the recycling of the grindings. That's budget friendly fo sho!
Yeah. It will dress up the front a bit till I can take care of it for good someday. 🔥🔥 Heat is not my friend sometimes!
I just got 7 pines trees Grinded Down
@@fredlatimore3253 Nice 👍
I'm having a kickass day I hope you had a kick-ass
Atta boy Joe! Kickin ass and takin names! Love it!
Great video, just what I was looking for! Can I throw the chips on my landscape? I was told doing so could possibly bring termites.
It's what I did. I had them on the edge of my yard under the bushes and such.
Front yard looks really wide open now. More green to mow in the future too. 😎👊
YUP!! Dirt comes tomorrow!
Jason G nice!
Thats a ton of free mulch! well kinda free. hahaha
Gotta make it work!
I have always been told that the stump grinding shavings are so acidic ,so it's not good to use them right away where you would normally use mulch
well I know that the shavings can steal the nitrogen from the soil. I have been putting them around my property each year.
What do I have to buy from home depot to fill the hole? Can you give me a link to go to? Also can you plant like those plants people put in the area where you put the stump grind when the grind is there?
Those plants might work ok like that. Just topsoil is needed. www.homedepot.com/p/40-lb-Top-soil-71140180/100355705?source=shoppingads&locale=en-US&mtc=Shopping-B-F_D28O-G-D28O-28_3_SOILS_AND_AMENDMENTS-MULTI-NA-Feed-LIA-NA-NA-BASE_SHP&cm_mmc=Shopping-B-F_D28O-G-D28O-28_3_SOILS_AND_AMENDMENTS-MULTI-NA-Feed-LIA-NA-NA-BASE_SHP-71700000033675478-58700003911554572-92700038980202538&gclid=CjwKCAiAxeX_BRASEiwAc1QdkRw6r7ay6jalO76C_-Ols1GQ023hPOwE60M_ywFttbK-QZJuN1t_GBoCs14QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
Could you just light a fire on top of the shaving, and burn them all out?
I just had three pine stumps ground away today, and a good amount of the shavings were hauled away.
But I’ve still go some remnants, and also a few raised mounds where the roots go under ground.
Too much moisture is the issue. Otherwise that would work.
We just had an ash tree stump grinded & the guy said to leave the debris in the hole for 2 weeks, then add top soil/seed over it. He said otherwise the hole will fill up with moisture & will keep caving in for the next 20 years. Something about the wood chips heating up in the ground, creating a barrier from moisture. Is this true? Not sure what to think after watching this video. Any advice would be appreciated!
No, the wood chips will slowly decompose robing the grass of nitrogen. So you will have a hole that gets deeper and uglier over time if you keep the debris in there. #science
Get R Done J 😎
Can't wait to get some grass growing in these spots!
Any recommendations for a pitch fork?
Doesn't really matter, sometimes people like the wider bigger rakes on the end.
Had tree taken down recently... Sawdust burnt all the grass in those areas
Yeah. I have had a few small areas that it happened to also. Most are grown back in now. You would think that it wouldn't hurt anything right??
Jason, What will happen to the stump debris , will get decomposed later. Or what you going to do that that?
Yes. I used it around the edges of the backyard.
A long handle pitch fork would have helped helped the back.
You are so right. But I don't have one. Sometimes you just gotta use what you got.
If you remove the stump grinding from that spot, because they leech nitrogen and stop growth… then why are you moving it into your garden? Won’t it stop growth around there too?
There are extra fertilizers in the garden areas.
Using Grindings as a mulch is not the same and burying it. When you bury the grindings it becomes a soil amendment which is part of the decomposition process. The wood itself does not contain enough nitrogen for the chemical process to occur on its own, so it pulls the nitrogen from the surrounding soil.
Geez, how many times are you going to mention that you're sweating?
Not sure. Want to watch it again and count for me please?
Is your lawn Bermuda?
Nope. Cool season mix.
Bend your knees for god’s sake!
Probably why I need next surgery huh?
