I think it's ash. What say you?

[warno]

I've been told it is ash it looks similar to ash around. What's in the truck?

 

[jackatc1]

I think you are correct.

Ash. You can see holes from the emerald Ash borer.

That's what I was assuming. It was dying pretty quick. I assumed the EAB got to it.

X4. Nice score.

How long does ash take to season in direct sunlight all day and with all blowing winds hitting it?

45 minutes or so.

45 minutes or so.

45 to 60 minutes, depends if it is stacked NS vs EW
I like to season all my firewood for a minimum of 1 year. Last year Ash was scroungeg in the winter and I am burning it right now (very big splits, covered ) and internal Humidity is 17%

 

[FaithfulWoodsman]

Can be ready in 6 months in windy/sunny area. Really needs 1 yr.

This stuff along with a mountain of other ash is getting split and stacked before this spring and we have other wood to go before it anyway. It might roll into the winter after next.

I cut a big dying Ash in March of last year, split it around Easter, stacked it out in direct sun in a windy location, and it was sub-15% on multiple fresh splits by mid-October.

You can tell Ash by that "pinhole" in the center on the flat cutside, take a look and you can see it clearly in the second picture.

I like to call it a BB shot dead center. You're right it's in every ash cut

That's right! I don't know of too many other trees that have it but last year or longer I cut some Hickory and believe it or not that piece had that pinhole too, I was surprised! But mostly just Ash in my experience other than that.....

I too have seen a few different kinds with a pinhole in the middle, but ash almost everyone.
