Having a stump on a plot of land, especially if it is a classic 6 acres, is considered an unaffordable luxury.
Removing stumps is not an easy task and depending on the type of tree and other conditions, it can take a whole day, not to mention the effort and health.
Experienced gardeners, who are accustomed to keeping up with science, use Tsiolkovsky’s method in such cases.
Countryside life hacks
Take with you a drill, a thick drill bit, potassium nitrate and sugar, matches and some gasoline.
With this set you can deal with any stump.
Tsiolkovsky's method
So, using a drill and a bit of a suitable radius, we make several holes close to each other on the cut of the stump.
Then we take 70 grams of potassium nitrate and mix it with 30 grams of sugar.
We pour this mixture into each hole made.
We pour gasoline on top of this thing, move away to a safe distance and set it on fire.
The effectiveness of the method depends on a number of factors, such as the type of wood, its age, weather conditions, etc.
So don't hesitate to try again if you can't solve the problem the first time.
