I completely agree. I burn whatever wood I can get for free. Many a punky, rotten log had been burned in my stove. As long as it's dry, it's good. Same with any firewood, really.

I had to chuckle because I keep the odds and ends pieces from splitting for kindling and my husband thinks it's a waste of time but it's better than splitting down a good piece of firewood for kindling and we make it through every year with my scraps and added dry branches that season for a year and I tie in bundles. Cleaning our chimneys this weekend and we are cleaning again every two months while burning, it's better to be safe than sorry. My husband has been the Fire Chief on our rural volunteer fire department for 18 yrs. now. Sadly, there is always one or two chimney fires a burning season.

Both of my stoves are burning it right now. I have no trouble burning it early in the season.

Very helpful information. And the Archie sighting was an added bonus! 🐈 He's so much like my orange tabby, Sampson.

I don’t go looking for punky wood, but if the logs I’m splitting get punky and soft, they go in the fireplace too. If I’m gonna cut and split it, it’s gonna get burned. Now if it falls apart because it’s rotten, I’ll leave it, but if it has some stiffness to it, I throw it in! It burns too and that’s the point , isn’t it?

I think you can as long as not, too far gone and dry

Thanks Jerry! I was chopping some firwood and came across some punky wood that was left by the previous owner on my property and didnt know if I could burn it in my fireplace or not.

Just wondering what your opinion is about those creosote logs do they do anything are they even worth the money

I've used them but I still sweep my chimney once a year

They do what they are supposed to. That is help dehydrate creosote, so that it flakes and falls to the bottom. I do not use them because I haven’t seen a difference between using and not using them. I did try one once. There can be a downside to them. That is if the creosote comes loose and falls and is not cleaned out it can catch on fire easier. I do know people that had chimney fires within a week or two of using them.
