Lucky to find stuff this dry

[FaithfulWoodsman]

I've had my eye on a few cherries in a new field I got perm to cut dead standing. I was hoping they would be in the low 20's and I could give them at least a few weeks under the shed to get me through, but I was stoked to find it bone dry. Little bit of punk, but most of it is in the middle teens. Deff will be going back next week. Glad I can start mixing it in now.

Nice haul. I burn a lot of black cherry.

Get that wood up to room temp, resplit and test for moisture, those meters give false readings when the splits are cold.

Yeah I'm sure I'll get some diff readings, but honestly I didn't even need to test them to tell its dry. Even the biggest splits feel super light and ring like a bell when tapped. Knowing how measley even rounds dry, these must have been dead for at least a couple years or more to lose that much water.
