[QUOTE="Old Goat, post: 869748, member: 17351"] I am always a year or two ahead on firewood. The silver maple that I will burn for the winter of 08 / 09 was cut last year and is stacked in rounds out in the wood lot now. Most of the rounds are 24" or bigger. The bark will peel or fall off when I split it this summer and I am assuming that the bark is a large contributor to the ash. We have low humidity here and the wood seems to keep a bit longer before dry rotting. I am using a Fisher "Momma Bear" stove to heat 1800 Sq feet (only source of heat) and I clean out the ash about once every three weeks. Most of the wood is bark-less silver maple and black locust with a piece of elm every now and then. If I have time to sit and enjoy the fire I will use the juniper. [/QUOTE]
