How do I tell the difference between soft and hard maple when it is still in logs? I can tell when it's still a tree, when it's lumber and when it's a split piece of firewood but not the foggiest idea when it's still in log form. This will be my first year buying logs and splitting myself and currently in our 5th winter of only heating with wood. The biggest thing I have learned so far is that 5 out of 5 suppliers of split wood I've delt with are crooks in one way or another.
While I'll likely be buying from the same guy that KiotiKen uses and not worried about him but if I'm dealing with other loggers I want to be sure. I've been burnt too many times and don't want to end up with a stack of soft maple that might as well be pine
