Jerry , I've dried black walnut , SLP , and lombardy poplar in my grandpas old barn that did not have the battons nailed up . Lots of vertical air slots and it worked well . Does the tobaco barn have horizontal slots ?

 

[jerry wayne]

just vertical

I hope the pictures i posted came through.....look at them and youll see only vertical.....somewhat of an opening at the base all the way around im gonna speramint and dry some outside as well,not getting any sun is my biggest concern.........wait n see i am getting this wood from tree cutters in the area and being a city boy ,i really cant tell which wood is what type ,any sites for I.D. ing different kinds of wood?:newbie:
