Over time, the tree roots encircling a stump will rot. However, this process may take years with larger trees. In the meantime, tough, woody roots near the stump will make it hard for another tree to establish its own root system in the soil.
After a stump is ground, the soil around the stump undergoes a lot of changes that make it an unsuitable growing medium for many plants. The sudden influx of wood chips can deplete nitrogen from the soil. The pH may be too acidic as the wood fibers break down into dirt.
