You can burn well-seasoned firewood during rain if it’s been stored under cover. Focus on dry kindling and sheltered fire pits for outdoor burning in wet weather.
Splitting firewood accelerates drying by exposing more surface area, enables proper ignition and combustion, and creates manageable sizes for efficient burning.
Oak and hickory produce the best, longest-lasting coals. Black locust also excels where available, while ash provides good coals with easier processing.
Surface mold on firewood is safe to burn, though it indicates excessive moisture. Brush it off before burning and improve storage to prevent recurrence.
Buy firewood in late winter through early spring for best prices and quality. Avoid peak season (September-December) when demand drives prices high.
