Stump Removal

[kcflhrc]

Any DIY tricks for stump removal. I'm in no hurry to get rid of it. I had thought of drilling several holes in it and filling the holes with either diesel fuel or charcoal lighter and letting it burn to start. It's out in my pasture so it's not really hurting anything.

Get an old rear tractor rim and put over top of it and burn your brush in it until gone. I don't recommend and additive fluids but if you were to spill something in the rim it wouldn't hurt

I have lots of brush to burn so this is probably what I will do. Eventually it will burn away.

Try some Spectracide (potassium nitrate) available at Amazon or Home Depot.

I saw that on Amazon last night, maybe worth a try. I do like building fires though.

Dynamite?

I have about a dozen to remove. Can't afford a contractor. Tried burning but the stumps are too hard and fire doesn't do much. I got rid of some by digging around them and chainsawing low and then covering the cut off stump but that is too hard on my body too. I will look up that potassium nitrate to see if it will benefit my case.

Yeah, just drill big holes down into the stump and fill them with ammonium nitrate fertilizer. After it soaks in a while, build a fire on top of it. The ammonium nitrate is an oxidizer and will help the stump burn.

Or drill a deep hole and put some tannerite in it. Probably would make it disappear.
