    I have semi seasoned wood , down last winter split and stacked under cover in august. Should I wrap the sides in clear plastic leaving vent top and bottom or air dry? it is under roof with open sides currently.

    If it is under cover already, I would leave it be. rain water evaporates very quickly w/little to no effect on MC

    Never cover the sides of a wood pile. Top only.
