    Any Gen-X’ers heating with wood?

    I Identify as a Gen Xer lol. Burn 10- 12 full cords/year in my Hardy H2 cut and split and stacked by only me. Much of what I burn would have been burned as brush by my FIL who farms and spends his free time pushing brush and cleaning out fence rows. So I figure I’m making good use of the wood...

    Fair Price for a used Jonsered?

    I paid a little over 600 for my 2165 and a 20 inch b/c. I would buy another one for half of new if it was lightly used. Mine is beat up and used and I wouldn't take less than that for it:msp_biggrin: Good luck

    what do you add to the dirt before planting

    I add compost and homemade "bio char" and depending on the crop, starter fertilizer. I think composted cardboard would be an excellent amendment. my guess is that Raw cardboard might take away nutrients from the crop by raising the Carbon:Nitrogen ratio also I don't know what else is in...

    Is this a locust sapling?

    Not really :msp_wink: that mad. They are nice specimen trees and excellent firewood. Just not something I want growing up in pastures or my fencerows. I do Tordon what I can't get with the D5. I always enjoy checking off the different locust species in cities like Chicago. Always amazes me how...

    OWB - Too efficient?

    Good point, My Hardy will go out because of this early in the season. Another thing I do is shake the wood down morning and night. I use a 1" diameter 3' long hedge stick prod the fire and get good contact wood to ashes. :cheers: Add a piece or two off wood when it's warm and I am usually...
