Default Wood Chippings from Stump Grinding

We have a truly mammoth pile of chippings from six stumps that we

have
ground out. Are they any use for soil conditioner? Some are from

newly
felled trees, others form long-dead stumps.

Any views

Thanks

Harry


Rotting wood removes nitrogen from the soil.


That is easily overcome by using the stuff as a mulch and watering it
occasionally with diluted urine.
