I hit the firewood jackpot this year. My neighbor just had 35 acres logged and the tops are laying. Mostly oak (white, red, and chestnut) some beech, pine, and a few hickory and gum. Well with all the firewood I'm cutting I decided I need a shed to put it in. Started a pole barn with a few cedars for post. Problem is I only had five good poles and I need nine. I was going to use some white oak for poles but I can't find any long and straight enough. So what would last longer buried a few feet? There is a hickory I can get a pole or two out of that I can get to pretty easy, beech laying everywhere and I think I saw a good sweet-gum I could get out. Would any of these last as long as cedar?
