    Howdy hoarders. I have just split up some apple wood. Felled it yesterday, so it is as green as can be. Splits are on the slender side and I have well ventilated lean-tos. What's your estimate on seasoning time to get it to 15 to 18% moisture, ready for burning, based on your experience? Thanks for sharing any experience in this!
