You gonna strip them and char the end going into the ground? I need to build a wood shed, problem is I am lazy...

Does charing help?

Intuitively my brain wants to think burning the ends would result in faster decay 🤔

I’ve seen people do it, never done it myself though

The outer part of Eastern juniper will break down much faster than the heart wood.. Charing the part that touches soil will help prevent that because char (aka biochar) will never break down

Interesting. Is this true of all woods. Specifically cedar

Was thinking about it, they’re knotty as hell so I think they’d be hard to strip

If you have a pressure washer I've see videos that you can just strip with it. Works slick. Have to let it age a bit, but the bark strips right off.

Genius I’ll definitely try
