(quoted from post at 04:14:56 01/13/22) I guess I do it all wrong again. I hate cutting in hot weather and fall or spring cutting is not an option with planting in spring and combining all fall. SO I have to cut as I go with dead wood that may or may not be dry. Standing dead soft maple burns well and as long as it will go through the night I'm good.
(quoted from post at 15:03:23 01/12/22) I actually would not plan on burning oak for a few years. It is very dense and hard to start unless in very small pieces. Then it burns too hot unless you really keep an eye on it. We have a wood stove in our living room that is usually our main source of heat, so we like to keep an even temperature. Cherry on the the other hand, is less dense and will dry and rot easier quicker. I try (or used to) to cut next year's wood this year, and stack it in my barn, and almost always cut only dead wood.
The fastest way to dry the oak wood be split it very small, keep it in somewhere warm (a paradox!), and wait a few years. Mark.
