I keep cutting until I'm a year ahead. When we used the wood stove solely it was 2 years ahead simply because I was trying to get the wood as dry as possible but since we switched to the OWB we just go for a year ahead. I never have a difficult time getting my hands on wood. I cut most weekends in the summer and fall and I'm good to go.
Never usually worried about rot, but we do have space issues if I get too much wood.
