Mould on Horse Chestnut

Recommended Posts

I would like to ask my esteemed learned friends for some advice.

 

I do not need to know how to recognise ash nor the capacity of a Nissan Navara double cab :biggrin:

 

But what I would like to know is will the mould on the rings of Horse Chestnut which has been stood outside for about 3 months go when it is split and covered in vented bags???

Quite a number of woods develop mould on the end grain if left outside during a prolonged wet spell. The growth stops when the rings/split logs are transferred to under cover with good ventilation. The staining remains however.I often find that sycamore gets a covering of 'pink spot' (?) on the bark when left outside.

I`ve got the pink spots on some sycamore as well. Looks like I need to get it logged and covered quicker.
