hardwood / softwood

[AJR68]

Snap.Altho the majority of it is larch that is exactly all I sell.I will second the wet wood thing,it dosnt take much for softwood to soak up moisture if rain can get to it.It also when seriously seasoned eg plus two years can start soaking up the atmospheres moisture and wet muggy days can easily see your logs turn up to 25 percent again.

Pubs absolutly love dry softwood,at 20percent it lights quickly giving bright very hot flames,also the crackling and popping gives the customers the atmosphere of Cosey log fire the pine smells bloody lovely aswell.

Softwood for the win chaps!

 

Couldnt agree more!!

I like a a mix 75% soft 25% hard small bit of coal, cracking fire, well seasoned soft wood is fine.

Isn't there a problem burning coal and wood together? We used to do it but were advised it was a bad idea. Can't remember by who.

that was a party political broadcast from the "i love soft wood party"

 

Haha well someones got to love it, right?

over the years its had a bad rap,and to be honest I think alot of English firewood suppliers could do with taking a leaf or two out of our European brothers overseas.Softwood is huge over there.On a quiet week I'll bank over 350 notes after tax from selling softwood alone,with a customer base of over 289 people the proof is in the pudding that softwood can work rather well if given a shot,and certainly if people find it harder and harder to gain good hardwood cord then it just reassures them that softwood isn't such a dirty word anymore.

hardwood only due to the lower fire risk! as they are less lightly to spit as we have open fires
