How to get rid of the overgrown stone fruit trees without uprooting - experiment

In the garden area unexpectedly rose tree. What sort-tribe - it was not possible to know. A few berries - whether cherries, or cherry - blushed at the very top, all the lower ovary crumbled. The tree grew, grew, and after a couple of years from the beginning of the dry stem, only on the ends of the branches were green leaves. And the tree was cut down.

Here and fairy tales end... Yes, there it was. Throughout the site briskly climbed the long straight rods with lush foliage.

Sawn wood did not want to put up with his premature death, and from the far-flung roots under the ground in all corners of the garden climbed suckers. In a short time there were thickets of times at close beds in the middle of the bush currants.

Uproot this mess no one wanted. But "the Internet knows everything", there was found a clue.

Used tools, materials, chemicals:

1. Drill with perks

2. Plastic buckets and bottles

3. Roundup

The method is simple and unsophisticated: the circumference stumps closer to the edge of the drilled hole to a depth of 5-6 cm. In this case, the stub of about 20 cm in diameter made 6 wells.

The hole is filled with Roundup solution with water in a ratio of 1: 3. 50 ml vial volume enough to prepare 200 ml of the working solution.

On hemp worn plastic bags or plastic buckets, so that in case of rain the solution is washed up to the ground.

When working with Roundup should be possible to protect the soil and plants from contact with him.

The entire solution in the wells was not located, so was topped up when the first portion of soaked wood.

A couple of weeks is the closest to the stumps escape looked like this:

The next stage of the struggle: it is necessary to dissolve again and pour the solution into the trunks.

Roundup is effective for the control of annual weeds, much worse, he copes with perennials. On this basis, we can assume that the fight against the root shoots require considerably more time and effort. But the first interim results are encouraging.

When the experiment is finished, the story of its results is sure to be one of the articles on the channel.
