    Yea, but red pine has lots of resin when you split it. I cut off all the limb knobs because they have so much fatwood in them its crazy

    Red pine, Norway pine, same thing.

    It's better than white pine for BTU's. Starts quickly, burns hot, but not for a long time. It dries quickly too. I've burnt a lot of it.

    Does the dog sleep outside? I live in the suburbs so only put up a 30" high chicken wire fence around my two gardens for the bunnies and the groundhogs. Last year, the local deer decimated my string bean and tomato plants in two nights. I usually freeze 30 quart bags of beans and make gallons of tomato sauce and dice tomatoes. Your plants started from seed look great!
