Roots Suckering From Ground Out Stump

[Treemoose]

Hi all, we ground out a horse chestnut stump in the winter and have had an email from the customer asking for advice on some suckering she has noticed near the stump and along a root.

Apart from cutting down the suckers is there anything els we can do? Perhaps digging down and popping Eco plugs in the root if I can find it?

Is horse chestnut a real pain for this?

 

Cheers

Happened to me once, just tell them to keep cutting the suckers.

It'll give up after a season or so.

Pops are the worst. Chestnuts not as bad.

Just spray them off with some glyphosphate will be the easiest.
