How quickly is miracle grow absorbed. Due to neglect, my containered cherry tomatoes were greatly in need of water and fertilizer. I gave them the proper dosage, and 12 hours later we had a heavy rain come through.
A stump grinder uses a spinning blade fitted with carbide tipped teeth that scrape away at the stump. Bear in mind that a stump grinder can only work to a limited depth, normally up to 10-12 inches. If you feel up to it, stump grinders can be hired by the day at most local hire shops. If you decide to use a contractor to do the work for you, expect to pay a minimum of around Â£65 plus VAT for the smallest of stumps.
You must make sure that there are no obstructions around the stump that could damage the grinder wheel. Use a chain saw to get the stump as low to the ground as possible. This will reduce the time that you spend grinding. Position the cutting wheel over the stump. Start the wheel spinning and drop it unto the stump. Use the hydraulic lever to move the grinder from side to side to grind away at the stump. After you have one area done, reposition the grinder on the next area of the stump and repeat. The wood will start chipping into small pieces. Continue this process until you have ground the stump and the roots.
