It will kill the stump, and you'll have no regrowth. As far as actually removing the stump, the answer is no with this product. As time passes, the stump will rot and crumble, but it's not a quick process. I used it on rose-of Sharon (large stump), and the stump rotted out and crumbled after about a year. The purpose of this product is not to remove the stump but to prevent regrowth. In that regard, it's excellent. Hope this helps!

I have used it on a silver maple and it is still sprouting up little ones. Has not worked for me.

This product will not dissolve your stump. This is designed to kill the roots when applied immediately after cutting the bush down.

Severus Martin Bernice is correct. It will kill the stump, but you'll have to dig it out yourself, or wait for the weather to rot it away.

I'm sorry I really can't give you any positive answer to your question. I use mine for my hedge trimmer only during the summer. I suggest you contact Ryobi directly to get you answer.

I had to look that one up as I live in the mid - west, but yes I imagine it would based on the picture I saw. The only problem we ran into was branches that were 1 and1/2 in diameter, but those were hard woods in most cases. might do a bit better on softer woods and in a palm type branch I believe it would do fine.

Hello Susan, I would not recommend this tool for that type of tree. That tree is more of a hedge than a typical tree with large limbs. There is also a correct way to prune this type of tree and you should follow that procedure in order to continue to enjoy the beauty and benefits of the tree. I included a website underneath for you. I hope this helps. http://extension.unh.edu/resources/files/Resource000594_Rep616.pdf regards frank

It's a matter of application.You may have to use the "stump application" method.Cut the bush down to a stump. Apply this straight using an old paint brush (see the instructions). Cover the sides and everything down to the ground. Game over. It will die.

depends on your soil. I have soft soil and the spikes they send with it pull out and I had to buy extra and add a lot more than they recommend. if you have harder soil might work.

That is a good question, I have never used it to spray my hedge's. I have tried it on some vines, the tops die and then come back next year. Maybe your hedge will come back from the base...?

I haven't tried it on weeds. You would need an extension cord. It would kill the tops of the weeds which would kill tiny roots but I don't think it would affect tap roots. I think it would be as effective as pulling off the tops of weeds and leaving the roots.

It woul work with any size tractor. Once you start to pull, the grubber grabs tighter. The harder you pull, the tighter it grabs. Your limitation will be how big of a stump you can pull. The type of tree also determines whether or not you can pull it. If it has shallow horizontal roots, it is much easier than with something that has a taproot. I have a 33 horse tractor and it pulls 3-4" trees all day if the right kind but will struggle with a taproot. Bottom line... It was well worth the purchase as I have cleared the pathes I intended to. I just ha to use my chain saw and a shovel every now and then.

It shouldn't as it is really designed for pests. I would avoid putting direct, undiluted product directly on the flowers,shrubs, etc....I have not used mine yet, so I cannnot rate it's effectiveness yet. From the reviews, it sounds like it will work fairly well.

This is not going to work as well on tall grass and vines as a regular machete in my opinion. It does work well on saplings and limbs......it is more of a chopper and less of a slicer.

It can but I'd only recommend that if it is something that is out of reach and can take advantage of the extra reach provided by the pole. This is more of a chain saw than a hedge trimmer. I'd recommend getting the companion B&W; cordless hedge trimmer--I have both and used together can take care of just about any trimming project.

No, it should work but I would suggest using a corded drill because it takes a lot of power to auger the dirt unless it is very loose.

Depends on how hard. To get all the roots out, wet the area and wait a while. You have to press hard otherwise, possibly damaging the device. If you can readily penetrate the soil with foot action, it will work well.

I have successfully used this on small stumps with two applications. Bore a large hole about 2 - 3 inches deep and 1 1/2 inches wide. Fill with Tordon and let stump absorb. Another sure fire is to use Muriatic acid (swimming pool acid) - drill and fill in opening. Bamboo is tough. You may need to experiment with combinations.

No, I don't think it would work well for that. I used it on pinecones and small branches and it worked well. I use my lawnmower with bag (Greenworks as well) to collect and mulch leaves.
