Big freebie load came in today. I want to find some hickory for smoking and good BTU hardwood. Real bad at tree ID but getting better. What ones am I going after? Is the one I cut into with yellow chips Osage orange?
This about puts me at my quota for free ID's this week. Somebody else can point out the pine and whatever else is there
My 2 brain cells are fighting today, so I’ll defer to the experts. I would leave behind crotch pieces of any species.
I'd get as much as possible, regardless of what it is, unless you have at least 3 years already split and stacked at home.
If it's free, it's for me. Excellent score, and welcome aboard. Big stumps and the crotch pieces are annoying, but I take them anyway. Hope to see more of you around these parts.
Thanks guys! Loaded up on the honey locust and only got two rounds of the mulberry. I like to rip the crotches to see if they look cool. Pretty sure this one is cherry. Please correct me if I’m wrong because I got a bunch of it stacked:
Dont think its osage as we dont have it in Connecticut. There is a chance that could be osage, but at that size mulberry has a similar bark. As Eric Wanderweg pointed out get that honey locust and mulberry. I also see silver maple and ash in the mix. Welcome to the FHC
Welcome to the FHC Without knowing how far ahead you are, are you on the three-year plan yet? What your burning it in and how much room ya have… I say take it all split it and stack it.
