- Gas and electricity costs have soared, so some folks are turning back to firewood for a cheaper source of heating... However, its not quite as simple (or cheap) as some may think

Great to see the story behind my log delivery! Yes they do burn really well.
Thanks😃
Thanks for the advice. 😊
Your a real ray of sunshine Squire Pullen
Excellent video Ian - very informative!!
A very good Sunday evening to you all
Thank you for the advice farmer P
Thanks for the information Ian.cheers.
Wise words. I have told my son to watch your video as they had a wood burner installed. Thanks again.
A great bit of advice there. For what I do for a living I have clients that are getting contractors putting in fireplaces and wood burners all the time, when they are renovating their homes. I will use that info going forward. Cheers Ian. 👍🏻👍🏻
Good job Ian for taking care off consumers...................your the best ethical person on CZcams. Cheers from Canada
You see I said old age and decrepitude were creeping up fast Ian,🙃Great advice about the logs and keeping the chimney well brushed.Always good to keep your stack clean and tidy.😀
Interesting an instructive video Ian 🤔👍
Good video mr. P. 👍👍
Good afternoon Mr. P. well you snuck this one in. I must say that it was a very informative video keep up the good work and stay safe and keep well
Excellent firewood video Farmer P really good information, my logman brings his own moisture metre that is calibrated and before he tips the logs he chops half dozen logs from different parts of trailer to show the moisture readings.
That was some important facts about burning logs👍
over here you need to have the chimeny clean at least 4 times a year if you heat your house by burning logs.
stay safe 🤩
A very informative video.
All these years and just learnt about firewood 👍
Great information there about fire wood . I won’t a fire but my mrs don’t lol .
Thanks for the advice Ian feel free to talk total sense about firewood at anytime. A long time subscriber
I bought myself one of them testers last week great bit of kit
Great content
HI Ian, thanks for the words of firewood wisdom, just ordered a moisture meter. On the hay front, I'd go buy some more now. Even if you have to store it outdoors tarped on pallets. Much easier to source it now than next March.
Cracking video. Good advice as always. Your eyes and ears would always need to be open
I remember when I was younger when we had an open fire that a trailer load of logs cost us £20, flip only knows how much that would equate to in this day and age!
Thanks for the info! We burn red oak. Yesterday and today, we have cut & split a huge oak that fell last year. Will look into the moisture meter.
Eyup. Thanks for the moisture advice and just ordered the same meter. £24 and a bit, delivered today. Had my burner a few years now and installed professionally and got the certs. We mix logs with briquettes depending on how we want it to burn.
Good points there Ian. Many will much appreciate it. I'm sure there's a ban on new builds getting stoves installed to. Might just be in sunny warm Scotland 🤣. Stay safe Ian 🏴
Interesting about installing log burners. Must be that time of year when everyone stocking up on wood
Another ther great video has always farmer p ian and Mrs p Sam emma Abbi and holli and miss biskit miss crumble miss gypsy miss pepper and miss pickle 👍
My neighbours just about to order logs,£300 for 250 kiln dried,I have my supply ofsycamore and elm a few oak logs nicely drying in my greenhouse
Good place to season firewood. 🙂👍🏼
Gotta admit, there’s no way I’d be buying firewood, might as well put the heating on🤣. Definitely right about burning with a flame 👍👍
As far as I know, we don’t have those standards in 🇨🇦, but I think they should.
Hi Mr P
Do my own firewood swear by my moisture meter swept the chimney today ready for winter two mugfulls of soot came down dry wood =clean chimneys 👍
Morning farmer p mum p abbi holli emma sam bisskit and ur other dogs
Good interesting vlog today
I didnt no til u said about how dry the wood is cos as a kid growing up we had 3 coal fires at home and one fires was a back boiler 4 hot water and we had to clean out and then make them every day and we had a coal house/bunker we kept coal and wood in to do fire
I couldnt even tell u had many fires i made 4 years but never herd about how dry wood wood have to b and now i no so thanks
Farmer p is my coasters ready dry yet cos i dont no how long they need to dry?
U put ur wood in the sheds but how can anyone dry wood quicker at home???
Love u guys❤️❤️❤️
Hi Ian. Have you tried putting one bag in the front left corner and tother in back right one.
Testing log samples: Choose the moisture test log or logs yourself. really dodgy traders can have a doctored log fresh from the oven to chuck down to you. be warned.
Still won’t fit.
6 months dry time is good
nice,2 for one vlog tday
Ian when did they bring that moisture law into force back in the 1970s when i started working for brackles timber company we cut the trees down tuck the timber out and cut the rest into logs and sold it as it was no questions asked as long as the customer left it to out, there's just to many laws about everything today roy.
Only a couple of years ago Roy.
Interesting vlog. If you cannot afford a log burner, buy yourself a electric Over Blanket which costs about 5p a hour to use
a four and a seven easily done similaritys i think thats why you do a four with the line going through it like a cross
Hello Farmer P 😊... Oh dear, starting to swop numbers already 🤪🔢😉. You are closing in on the big 60 when you will discover that odd things happen now and then. When you get to the 70s 😱🤔😏..... that's when you start putting spanners in the freezer, put the Mustang out to do the Zago job, put the sheep in the cattle pen and take the cattle through to t'other farm and put them in the silage barn. The list is endless. My advice - have a good laugh about it 😂😂😂 or you will go crazy 🤪. One of the funniest things I have done in my 70s was to get in the front passenger seat of my car, trying to find the ignition keyhole whilst saying goodbye to my daughter. She asked me "do you want me to drive you home?" I said "No, why do you ask?" She said "Perhaps, mother dear, you should move over to the driver's side!" 🙈🤣🤣 🤣. I have stacks more of my crazy moments as I call them. Fortunately I find them hilarious. It keeps me sane (well, I think, so anyway 🤣🤣🤣).
Thanks for the videos, Farmer P. Very entertaining and good advice 👍👌😊. Take care and hug for Biskit 🐶 ❤️ 🤗
Ian l predict a long winter of cold wet days sorry
Farmer p

Poor little chap has been poorly again.
@@FarmerP

Are you still thinking about getting a wood fire boiler? Think you mentioned it when oil prices were through the roof.
Still doing the research 🙂👍🏼
900 you mustve read me mind lol
It's an age thing ! 7 or 4 🤔😊
Hi Farmer P
Just a quick query. How are the wall mounted cow brushes lasting ?
They are wearing well so far 🙂👍🏼
😎😎😎😎😎👍
its ashame you cant unload the second bag around the first bag on the landrover loose second load around the first bag load
Hello from the Netherlands .
Ian a question : those firewood bags are square or elongated like the euro-pallet 80x120 cm ??
because in the video they seem to be the same size as the euro pallet but on that new standard they look like square like a big bag is
thanks for the video ian .
Sincerely, Hollandduck
Square 🙂

Someone on my parcel delivery route has just had a log burner put in and they are burning old fencing and pressure treated timber every night. They seem to be dousing it in paraffin to get it to burn as there's 5L jugs for the stuff outside the front door.
Can't help but think that's not a good thing to be doing inside house given all the treatments fencing gets put on it.
Treated timber should not go on a log burner. As for the paraffin, that’s asking for trouble.
I might get a ban or a personal message about previous comment. But I know he does a proper job. And keeps his wood dry and wife warm. We'll he thinks it is hotter as hell when the Woodburner is on.
Haha, No worries, I'm luckier than most, my chimney is very easy to keep clean. I do it about once a month, when Mrs P lets the fire go out.🙂
@@FarmerP so you bin up.there about 3 time this fall. Euh late summer it was here in the southe of the Netherlands 24 degrees Celsius. I wore shorts to day
Does biskit have a collar
No, she never leaves my side, but I have a slip lead in both vehicles, just in case.
Would 2 bags not fit on the transit
Sadly no. They are very big bags
Tom Pemberton just did a 6 acre 3rd cut because the grass in that field was usable and gained 40 odd bails. Do you have a field that can be cut Mr. P?
Nothing fit, no 😕
Ah , Tom Pemberton , the king of wet silage..lol
How much do you roughly sell a bag of fire wood for
Our BIG big bags are £120
Since Alfalfa is known for its tolerance of drought, heat, and cold and for the remarkable productivity and quality of its herbage is there reason you don't plant a field of it
It’s not a common option hereabouts.

Did you catch it? The worm that is, your very early today
I ought for my own interest try a moisture meter on my own timber, I've got one but never used it on my own firewood.
Usually what I burn has sat 12 months split and heaped loose under cover on pallets but occasionally I burn standing dead wood cut the same year.
I know what I burn is dry and it burns cleanly and hot but no idea how dry it actually is.

Then when will the farmer get on his roof and sweep his shimney this year.... I know he does it. But when you talk about certificates you need. Ans QUALITY sweeping craftsmanship... with the proper certification of the company. We better see a very clean living room and clean shimney in side and out side . If you talk about safety you can show how your wife knows she life's in a safe house
I have already been up on the roof and swept the chimney Harrie, I awarded myself a certificate of " A job well done" and a pat on the back too...😉🙂👍😁😇
This is a fast answer.... o mighty that was seconds after o post it. Well done farmer p.
I was already at my PC, slaving over the next edit. 👍🙂
cannot even sweep you'r own chimney. whats this world comming to. Its not rocket science.
Your getting old like us all. 👍🏻😘
