Yes, I have noticed black cherry will dry down nicely just bucked, but not split. In the winter time! Stacked and the top covered though. I prefer neat stacks, it just lets the air flow better. I have split green or lets say recently dead elm in September, that was ready to burn in December, single stacks and being on a hill, the wind does help. From there it improved quickly, bring in enough to dry further inside, near the stove, no sizzle. This wood was wet when split.
I split a single stack of white birch in January of last year, 2/3 of a cord worth. I could burn it in March. Not all was split, surprisingly it burned well and this species burns like gasoline, lots of black soot though. This will overfire easily, but also controlled just as easily from my experience with it. There is a lot of it to harvest here, several of our crop fields were left to re-forest itself and although I like the fields,the firewood we now have is abundant.
