I'm wondering whether sappy wood equals unseasoned wood or if those two things are unrelated? I'm currently burning some big splits of Lodge Pole Pine which was standing dead for a full two years, cut into 16 inch lengths for a full year and then split and stacked this summer. My moisture meter reads between 6% and 8% even after splitting a split again and measuring so I'm assuming I'm alright with the wood's moisture level but should the sap itself also be all gone? Thanks as always.
EDIT: I should also add another obersvation which is while the sap isn't so obvious when splitting, stacking, etc, it "sweats" out of the split throughout the first few minutes of burning.
