Tree Stumps

Back in July - on the 15th actually - thank you phone for the time stamp! - Matt drilled holes into one of our stumps in order to try Stump-Out. Since we had several oak trees taken down a few years ago we have grown to wish the stumps were gone too!
The hardest part was drilling the holes. Since they were once mighty-oak-trees, the wood was extremely hard to drill into and those 4 holes killed 3 batteries for the drill. Crazy, right?!

drill the holes, poor in the powder, water and leave it.

OK. So here we are in September....3 months in and this is what it looked like this morning when I took the photos:

YEP! all the outer bark has come off and the 'inside' between the two trunks has been withering.....buuuut......not much else. We are going to try another round and then leave it until spring (hard to imagine but we've already had our first frost!! not a bad one, but frost all the same) since it's not going to do much in the snow.
I'll be sure to keep you posted!
