Great video Chris....informative and shows how different species of wood can look. Our Cherry in Utah looks exactly like the Oregon Cherry.

@@InTheWoodyard Almond is somewhere between 32-33 btu. It’s the best firewood I’ve ever used. Drys relatively quickly, doesn’t rot, very little ash left over and lasts forever on a fire. In my opinion eucalyptus is not a great firewood while it does have an extremely high btu, you will have problems with all the oils in it ruining wood stoves or inserts. Plus it’s known for chimney fires. Lots of it out west where I grew up but hardly anyone would burn it other than a fire pit.

Go job again ! Most of your customers use of firewood is not for serious heating as you say. Each region has its own species. Downeast Maine wood types varies depending on distance from the coast. Snorting splits works well as you said. Along the Maine coastal plain Red/Soft Maple, Paper/White Birch, and spruces and fir regen well. There's some Red Oak, rare Beech, some White Ash and little Yellow Birch and Cherry. So we separate the stacks based on use for the shoulder seasons ( spring, summer, fall ), and for winter heating. Yes, I'm a wood snob compulsive 😵‍💫. I do often run out to stare and snort my stacks. She has a referral for me for help. 😒

North East UK here. All the Cherry we have looks like that last chunk. I also use Hazel, which is a multi-stemmed bush/small tree which coppices very well, makes poles for all sorts of things, nuts for eating and good wood for fuel. I'm currently cutting down a neighbour's Elder - this tree gives perfumed flowers which are great for Elderflower Champaign or wine, and strong flavoured berries which can be used for a wine. Then there's Horse Chestnut, or 'conker trees' which gives a medium wood which spits, and Sweet Chestnut - provides FANTASTIC nuts you can cook with, and a medium firewood. My favourite wood is Hawthorn, a spiky tree with pretty flowers and berries - and incredibly dense wood, one of the best.

That was really interesting thank you. I am in Australia and of course the majority of our big wood is Eucalypts, but we have quite a bit of smaller stuff like wattles and mulga that also make great firewood. All typically is heavier and has higher BTU rating than what you generally have over there. We pay for it though, it is very hard wood and typically difficult to process / split. I live in a subtropical part of the country and typically wood is not used so much for heating here, more we burn it for entertainment (sitting around an outdoor fire) / outdoor cooking.

The red alder is what i call a short life tree. Grows like mad up to 3 to 6 foot of hight per year. Then at 35 to 50 years old there tops start to die. Once dry btus are on par with an average pine tree btus. . Every person ive known to lose there life with trees, is related to alder. a very unpredictable tree in terms of falling. Between the rot, and the 5 to 30 degree of lean they naturally have. . In a valley they can push up to near 30" but on a hill top they will be dieing out by the time there 20" In a more typical rain environment they will struggle to make 10" . Cabinets or trim boards around the inside of a window are its common use. 30 years ago, it had no real market and was just slash burned in mass. As it had no market value, it was literally just considered a weed tree. . . Vine maple, is a native weed. Its record size is about 15" probably 150+ years to get to that size. Grows up, falls over and keeps on growing. Its a real oddity. You could just about put that 4 foot Chunk in a super shady area with wetness and it could literally start to grow. With the typical size around 2" it would be a ton of work to heat with it. Also you dont want to burn it 100% in a stove, you can literally chernobyl any plastic handles on a stove.
