Does wood split better after its dry or when it's still green. (By hand not with a splitter) Hickory

depends, prefer dry if splitting with axe by hand, doesn't matter if using splitter...

Splits better when it's dry, but splitting hickory sucks. Rent a log splitter if you have any significant amount

When I was selling firewood, I never had the luxury of waiting until it was green. Red oak, water oak, black jack, post oak and live oak splits fine with an axe when it is green. For hickory, get a splitter.
