About that 50% black cherry. Over time, I burn quite a bit of it, rather than take it to the dump. At best, it's only so-so firewood, only thing going for it is the fragrance downwind. IOW, it's shoulder-season wood, for heating purposes. Some of it is a bear to split, too.
OTOH, it might well be much more valuable, cut & split to smaller sizes, for barbecue smoking. I'm investigating that myself. One side benny is that for smoking, moisture content is a plus, not a problem.
Gut feelingHow do you tell the difference?
Not really sure if you were being funny or not as this is an older thread. The latest pictures I posted show some new logs that were dropped off, but are not from the original load. I still have 4 rows of rounds stacked 3' to 4' high 30' long to split up. I have sold almost 3,400 bundles of wood out of this so far this summer. I think that is probably more than 9.2 cord.That will yeild 9.2 cords I would put a value of $300 on it as it sits where it sits.
Just my opinion Good luck
