On my lot, I have tons of cedar. 90% of them are dead, either standing or laid over caught in some neighboring trees. I've been here since '07. An old timer who lives near me said that years back a disease came thru and all the cedar trees got sick and died.
When I have nothing else to harvest, I'll go out and buck and split one. It's ready to burn right out of the gates. I have about a half cord of cedar in my supply for this year, I am burning it now. I'll grab 3-4 splits, lay them in the bottom of the firebox, then fill the rest of it w/chunks and uglies. Makes a great fire. Lights off instantly, get hot in no time, then the hard woods take over and she just rolllllllllllllls.![Smile :) :)](/talk/styles/default/xenforo/smileys/grin.gif)
