Identify Trees by the Needles (Pine, Spruce, Juniper, and more)
Просмотров 7 тыс.3 года назад
All of the conifers in Northeast / Midwest America can be roughly categorized by the 4 types of needles. These needles are pretty easy to distinguish from each other. I explain further in the video. As I mentioned at the beginning of the video, I learned a lot about the types of needles, and conifer identification, from the Peterson Field Guide to Trees and Shrubs. It's a phenomenal field guide...

    When it wets up on snow it gets black which helps the sun melt it. Just don’t spread it too close to your entries because you’ll track it inside. We just broadcast it on our lawn. It never hurt my rough hands!

    No one mentions eastern Dogwood. I live in North Carolina and there’s a blight or something. It’s killing the dogwood. I certainly wouldn’t cut down a live one for firewood, but in my woods lots of dead dogwood Burns very hot. I also like burning Bradford Pear not sure what the heat rating is, but it’s brittle and because it is planted as an ornamental you can find wind damage trees people want to get rid of.

    Colorado. The Aspen trrees have white bark. The firewood is best on dead standing trees. Even then it will need some time to cure after processing.Large trunks are difficult to hand split. If you like a nice crackely fire, seasoned aspen makes a pleasant lively fire.

    Thanks so much for your video 5 years ago. Question for you if you wouldn't mind, we burn oak and our wood stove but the wood just doesn't seem to burn very good. It doesn't seem to be too wet or anything, it seems to be seasoned good, and we have it stacked off the ground and often cover it. The wood doesn't seem to burn very efficiently and looks more like charcoal after it's been burning for a while. Does anything come to your mind that might be causing this? Would overly dry wood do this? The pieces have a nice clunking sound when I hit them together that's not deep or solid but kind of echoey. And the pieces are fairly small splits. I've had a wood stove for over 23 years and this seems to be something I've experienced the last 2 years. I was wondering if maybe my wood was too dry. I just checked the wood stove again, and the oak is completely black on top of it after burning for about 45 minutes. As mentioned it looks like charcoal. Thanks so much for any advice. 😊

    I ended up running 2 rank of cherry threw the two coldest weeks of the 2023to2024 winter in Missouri and it did well. I'd rather had hickory or oak but the Cherry is what I had ,that was dry at the time to burn. This last January got down to negative 17 at the coldest for two weeks. I'm glad I had it. It coaled well and will get more with out hesitation to have for my stove
