I'm set up with storage area so that I cut my firewood 2 seasons before I burn it. I've begun cutting downed trees on the farm. What I normally do is cut the tree top limbs to length and load into the pickup. Then load the logs onto a trailer and carry them home to be cut,split,and stack at my leisure. I'll normally burn the limb wood and any irregulars as i bring them in.With this being my 3rd season to heat with an OWB it seems I'm still learning as I've noticed I'm getting longer burn times by mixing in some green/unseasoned wood, 50/50 approx.
Does anybody else do this on a constant basis to increase burn time and/or decrease wood consumption?
Where I sit in my recliner I can see my OWB and I'm not noticing a more dirty burn with the unseasoned wood mixed in. I will see a good amount of steam coming out by the way, which is to be expected.
