Letting these prunings dry then it’s biochar time!

Dug an 8’x5’ sloped wall pit and will play with that before investing in any kilns.

Open to tips or suggestions on either of those..

Also does anyone have a good moisture meter for wood to recommend?

I remember Michael Wittman on TSP mentioning some parameters about them but can’t remember..

Do you know what moisture level is ideal?

Unfortunately everything here is soaked.

Haha true in the Amazonians.

Btw thanks for the 1491 recommendation, my wife and I both enjoyed that and 1493!

And Joshua- I was going to wait about 3 months from pruning to burning (so that would be next month).

Guessing you’d want a single digit moisture percentage but once the fire gets blazing that moisture is going to evaporate anyways
