Hackberry drop, will this be ????

[Electric B]

Got quite a bit of Hackberry dropped today. Will this be ok to let lay until fall? Or does it need to be split and stacked right away?

Hackberry bark in my area looks so much rougher! But I've had hackberry rounds that have been sitting out uncovered/unsplit well over a year, and just split them the other day, they look fine.

I agree.
Are you sure it's Hackberry? Looks more like Tree of Heaven to me. I suppose a young Hack could be smoother?

My preference would be to buck to length then stack so most of its off the ground. Got 1.5-2 cords waiting for me in just that way.

Cool, the trunk of a hack is always the knottiest.

Yep. I believe this is sugarberry or southern hackberry. Looks right from the pictures I've seen. We don't have that type here so I've never been up close and personal with a piece of southern hack.
