No kidding! Looks like you will get a nice stack out of that one, Ironwood.That is amazing growth in only 24 years!
That is amazing growth in only 24 years!
Near Wakeman along the Vermilion River. Our soil is glacial drift and sand. We had the downspout from the roof keeping the tree watered. It was in a ten gallon container and maybe one and a half inches in diameter when planted.Wow....... That is amazing. Especially for Northern Ohio Soil!! I have planted about 30 trees on my property. The soil (Clay) here doesn't allow for great growth.
Where abouts are located Ironwood? Im at the Medina/Ashland/Lorain Co Corner. Near Wellington.

I'm farther east in Stark county and we have the same thing here, a lot of clay. Also not much birch around here.
Gonna be a hot one for splitting DD......high 80's and 90's. I don't know about splitting might do some stacking. I have several cords of rounds left to split and 3 bundles of slab that needs chopped up but it is miserable working in the heat. You almost have to have long sleeves on if your handling much with rough bark and that makes it even more miserable. I have about 3 years worth already split and stacked so no hurry.
I have a Uncle that lives in Wakeman. My Father lives in Camden Twp. Your not to far west of me.
Thats a little farther... (nice firepit in your thread/ Love it ) Our soil is all Clay. 17 yrs ago my Property was a Cornfield. I have planted every grass seed, every bush, every tree.....
Here is my latest cutting. Gonna try an split what I have in rounds this weekend. . Also what I have in the racks. Ive got a few cord in the barn, a few in racks, and a lot in Log and Round form...
A man has to do what a man has to do especially for family and friends. We need more of that today. That's using your noggin though, invite them for cake and a bit of spoilin' for the little gal........then put them to work.
You got a lot of wood Dexter, how many cords all told? I see some of it is nice and seasoned for the upcoming winter too.

Dexter, you are the second fellow who has mentioned to me about clay being no good for growth. I find that amazing as clay ground is excellent for growth. Shoot, where I grew up it was almost all clay. Still in there. lol Anyway, we farmed a few hundred acres of clay and got great yields of corn, beans, beets, wheat, oats and hay. Lots of clay around this country and most of it being farmed. Yes, around here, folks like clay for growing.
