American chestnut burs. I noticed the spines are finer than those on their Asian cousins. [ATTACH]
Walnuts and butternuts have a smooth green husk surrounding a hard pit. Chestnuts and Chinquapins have spiny husk that open in the fall, releasing...
Definitely chestnut, bark looks Chinese
37 with a dreary rain/snow mix that’ll last until tomorrow morning. Currently burning red and chestnut oak skinnies that are well into the coaling...
I’m definitely going to grow these in 2022! [MEDIA]

55 at the moment and looks like it’ll stay that way until late afternoon tomorrow. The stove is idle but loaded with red oak for when the...
Heck of a deal in my eyes, if you’re going after the more sizable ones. A 2’ diameter tree will yield a cord+. $10 per cord is a steal!
It sounds like this guy doesn’t give a hoot if all these trees rot at the bottom of the pond he’s building. If you already have connections for...
41 and I’m burning like it’s 21. At least later tonight it’ll get below freezing again, finally. Burning a mix of white, red and chestnut oak....

If you’ve got to cut them up, split them, stack them on your (and his) property... I dunno. I’d walk away from that deal. Sounds to me like you’ll...
I think you hit the nail on the head there. Everybody's exacerbating the problem. But speaking for myself, I have yet to hear any news or see any...
There's quite a few like that around here too. It's just evidence that an area was logged in the past. Singular trees were cut close to ground...
I always thought war would be the catalyst for the kinds of things we're seeing now. Finally waking people up to our over reliance on global...
Drooling over here :drool: I’ve got a little chestnut oak in the stove right now as a matter of fact, and wish I had more! You’re making me want...
Currently 45 but somehow feels colder. I’m using up some small skinny splits of red oak and chestnut oak. [ATTACH]

Awesome, I’ll buy the cherry conclusion. Here’s a picture of some black cherry I cut in October 2020. You can see the horizontal lines running...
