I don't get what you are trying to say?

Hardwood needs to be left once split but for weeks not months.

Just to confirm - are you saying that you can dry hardwood down to a saleable firewood moisture content in a few weeks?

No what I'm saying is if you leave timber stacked for 12 to 18 months then cut and split it the drying time is reduced hugely.

Mortimer and other have discussed this at length on several previous posts - Yes the whole process can be speeded up with older roundwood and optimised drying conditions.

Yes experiencing this now. Got a pile of oldish beech that I recently processed. It was on the turn but still soaking inside but now cut and split are drying hellishly fast.

Works particularly well with conifer IMHO. I leave mine in lengths on the pile for a few years, then cut and split - no resin and drys very fast
