Polytunnels again

[New Forest DEAN]

Hi All

 

I've just taken delivery of a load of uncut oak (been felled a year apparently), which I need to get in a burnable state by this winter.

 

I'm thinking of buying a cheapo polytunnel to speed things along - 6x3x2m high.

 

Only problem - space restrictions mean I can only put it in a dip area, facing south-east / north-west, against some trees. So its protected from wind and in a damp area.

 

It does have both end doors and vents at mid-height on the sides.

 

Any thoughts / tips?

 

Cheers all - DEAN.

It will dry a lot quicker in the tunnel than outside, but airflow is the key.

 

If you loosely stacked billets in the tunnel I think they would dry by winter, but its a gamble.
