Hi there,

I have recently removed two trees from my garden as they were becoming
too big and were blocking out too much sunlight in certain parts of the
garden. They are c8 inches in diameter and i have managed to chainsaw
my way through the stup so that only 4inches remains on the one and
about 10 inches on the other [due to its location it was difficult to
get any lower].

Is there anything i can do to stop them re-growing/spruting or is that
it?

I hope someone can advise.

Regards,
Anthony


If you are in a zone good for huckleberries, & would want lovely fruiting
shrubs where the trees were, carve the stumps centers out until there's a
wooden "pot" that will hold a lot of woodchips & soil such as red and oval
leaf huckleberries like best. The hucks will thrive for years as the
stumps rot away. Once there is nothing left of the stumps, the hucks will
likely fade away (or at least no longer produce harvestable amounts of
good sized berries), as they need a super high amount of beneficial fungus
that devours wood & which they get only by growing on stumps.
