Sappy and smells piney? I have cedar all over my property and I've yet to see any sap, and cedar smell is not piney.Does cedar have any value in wood burning world? My friend dumped a pickup truck load at my house that he cut down at his house and needed to get rid of. I've never dealt with cedar before, its pretty sappy and smells piney.... Is it even worth splitting?

Boy, you must have a different species of cedar there. I just cut down a live cedar tree yesterday, no sign of sap anywhere. Do your examples have purple/red centers?Yeah, that is what I have realized. The tree was cut down the day I got it dropped off so it was very fresh and was dripping its sap, but has since dried out.

Lots of different types of "cedar". We only have white cedar but the wood can be as white as basswood or a deep chocolate brown in the heartwood. Sometimes a 12" tree has 1/2 inch of dark wood and other times it's 3/4 of the diameter. Very slow growing. I've counted about 10 years per inch of DBH. Yard trees seem to grow much faster than forest treesBoy, you must have a different species of cedar there. I just cut down a live cedar tree yesterday, no sign of sap anywhere.
