Hello. I have a question for this group. I have all of this years firewood as well as next year’s firewood cut, split, and stacked. I still have about nine cords of Ash logs uncut. I am really out of space to stock more split firewood but can stack rounds in the space where I cut the logs. Is there any downside to continuing to cut logs into rounds but not splitting them for about six months? The weather is still decent here and I’d love to make use of the time. My gut tells me they would be fine and would get a jumpstart on the drawing process although not dry fully. Thoughts? Thanks.
 
Should be ok.
