Tree Stump Regrowth: Glyphosate Stump Treatment or Persistent Cutting

Cutting trees, last time they regrew. Cheap remedy to prevent? Salt?

Glyphosate Stump Treatment (Best)

• Apply within 24 hrs of cut.
• Peel bark edge → expose green cambium.
• Paint concentrated glyphosate on cambium.

Salt? No.

Soil contaminant, harms nearby plants, leaches.

Cheap Alternative: Weekly Cutting

Cut every sprout, weekly, until root starves. Labor, not chemical.

Glyphosate on cambium = 1-time, effective. Salt = bad idea.
