I’ve been pulling from a mixed pile of elm, sugar and red maple and found this maple skinny. Apparently after 2 years in the stack cocoon it morphed into a cherry or mulberry It’s red only on the one side. I’ll add this to the growing list of weird things that surprises me less and less each year.
It’s an omen our forefathers would sing of: Red log at night, metal your saw shall bite, Red log in morn, score free hawthorn.
I have a hawthorn you are welcome to in my yard. It lost 1 trunk out of 3 a few weeks back and I need to get it cut it up. Feel free to take it all though.
Ive had a few pieces of red maple, white oak, and hickory do this I have no clue what causes it maybe a fungus or bacteria?
Is that your “one cord nugget bin”? Lots of nice wood in that stack. I spy… honey locust, black locust, cherry, maple, and mulberry
Yup. Starting filling Summer 2020. Might sell this Winter, but if not ive got a guy next year. The multi year HL drying made me wait. Think there's also sugar maple and a mystree wood in there too. I cant recall if i showed you some of it? Yard Tree ID Whats your experience with HL drying time?
Oh yeah, that’s the one I’m almost positive is either a Chinese or hybrid chestnut. I don’t know too much about Honeylocust drying time firsthand. I’ve heard 3 years on here. Other than some skinny limb wood I got this summer, the only other HL was some I got from you in November 2021. It’s still in my stacks top covered. I wasn’t planning on trying it out until at least next winter.
Did i give you a split or two of it? When i sell it ill be sure to put a few aside if not. Study the stack and the yellowish/green ones are that.
