What Customers Are Saying
The product is generally effective at breaking down and removing tree stumps over time, though the process can be lengthy, often taking several months or even years. Many customers found the product easy to use with straightforward instructions. However, some customers were disappointed, stating the product did not work at all or took an excessively long time to see results. The quality and effectiveness may vary, with some customers receiving partially solidified or ineffective batches. Patience is required, as this is not an overnight solution.

Would RecommendThis product's main ingredient is Potassium Nitrate, it stimulates the wood to decompose. This can be accelerated by adding diesel fuel. Drill several at least 1/2" or larger holes in the stump fill them 3/4 full with "Stump Remover" & fill them up with diesel. Keep the stump remover saturated for a week & the stump will die & rot

Too soon to know for certain, and two caveats
Would RecommendThis product takes several weeks to work, so I'll have to come back and update this later on it's effectiveness. But anyone considering this should know two things.

About half the bottles Lowes gave me were at least partially "solidified" (the small crystals that should easily pour through a small spout had turned int...

Worked in 2 years
Would RecommendUsed on a 30-year old apricot tree. Stump was about 12-inch diameter. I drilled multiple holes, filled with product, and used vegetation killer to dissolve the granuals. After a year I drilled fresh holes and filled with product again. After two years I broke out stump with a large hammer in 15 minutes. A few large pieces, but much of it cleaved into bark sized pieces. Product clearly works, but you must be patient. Much easier than chopping out a fresh stump.
EMERGENCY RESCUE
Would RecommendI Just mix it with Sugar cook it till it looks like Peanut Butter Put it in a Empty Soup can Light it & it makes a Very Noticeable Smoke Signal to Help get Rescued in case you are Lost in the Wilderness. IT ALSO SPEEDS UP DECOMPOSITION OF DEAD TREE STUMPS
