Information
has gloss	eng: Green Wood, a term used to describe wood products that have been recently cut, and have not had an opportunity to season (dry) by evaporation of the internal moisture. The term is used often in describing the relative moisture content of wood products such as firewood and lumber. Green wood being recently cut and high in moisture relative to seasoned wood being lower in moisture because of drying due to the passage of time (seasons) or forced wood drying as in kilns. Green wood is considered to be 100% moisture content relative to air dried or seasoned wood which is considered to be 20%. Available BTU charts for wood fuels tend to use air dried as their reference, thus oven dried or 0% moisture content can reflect 103.4% BTU content, exceeding the mean value. When green wood is used as fuel in appliances, it releases less heat per unit of measure (usually cords or tons) due to the heat consumed to evaporate the moisture.
