I'm surprised a thread on this hasn't popped up yet but curious how the FHC 25-26 firewood usage tally is going. I didn't start burning until the beginning of November (personal choice as I could have started in late September). Currently still burning (snowing here right now) but things are definitely slowing down. I've burned between 3 to 3-1/2 cords so far (all hardwood), which would put me pretty much on track for usage during a subpar winter (not overly cold and not really a lot of snow).
Unless I missed on my rack count, I've gone through 9 8ft racks. 3 cords. Seems like it should have been more.
I've gone through about 2 cords plus however much I burned in lumber cutoffs. I'm guessing maybe a half cord or so. 1300 sq ft house.
I’m at about a little over 3 myself. Half of that was low BTU junk (tulip poplar, sassafras, half punky ash, etc) But I burned plenty of oak and black locust back in January-February when the weather called for it.
I'm at about 3.5 cords, will probably finish out at the average 4 a year. mostly oak, some hard maple and black birch. I thought it was going to be way over that the way winter started, but we got a reprieve as of late with temperatures.
I would guess less than 3 cords. I stopped burning early for health reasons. I had to buy some HHO to get me thru the rest of spring. I think I was quoted a price of $4.58/gal. I order minimum
4 cord at least so far. Started late October and burning now. Supposed to dip into the low 20s tonight.
Just a tad under 3 full cords. Bout normal. We are done burning. I have plugged the chimney so birds dont invade our wood stove (and scare my wife).
3ish cords here, 1 1/2 of mixed pieces of punky and low btu other 1 1/2 of ash and oak. Still have 6 or so cords stacked and split and a few more cords in blocks
About 5 cord. I intentionally burned more than I should have. Still burning-of course. I intended to get the wood room as empty as possible in case I needed access to back wall with whole house generator install.
I'm guessing 4 cord. It has been a long time since I've gone through this much wood. For sure I have lots more ashes than normal, and we're not done yet. Close but it is not yet over.
I've been busy and I usually start one of these threads, Good job EODMSgt for getting it going! I was hit hard this year, I'm over 4 cord this winter, we stayed busy! Average year is 2-3 cord at best. A couple winters back, I only touched over 1 cord.
We have probably burned six cords. Up from 4-5 cords last year. It's kinda hard to know for sure, the way I store wood is changing. It's mostly been ash, some oak, a little black birch, some mystery wood & about a cord of pine, gritzer wood and lumber cutoffs. There were a lot of days where the stove was burning at full throttle it's been so cold compared to previous winters.
