If you use a honey locust for a post, it'll rot fast.
It's the Black Locust that last like Hedge in the ground. You may have the Black locust trees up there?

This is a Honey Locust.

Pretty sure that tree grew atop of a witches grave.

This is a Honey Locust.

I have 2-3 of those about 6-8" diameter in the driveway tree line. I'm pretty sure I am going to push the tractor bucket into the trunk, strap the tree to the bucket, lift a little. Then slice it at the bottom and carry strait to the woods or creek and chuck it where I'll never be near it again! Mine are already popping 4-5" thorns even though they are small, and over the driveway is exactly where I don't need those thorns!

Y'all are crazy! I love Honey Locust. It's a PITA to cut, but it burns VERY well and splits pretty nicely.

Yeah. It makes good firewood. And great furniture.
There are even thornless varieties of them. "Just not in our neighborhood".

Pretty sure mine are Black Locust. Every once in a while I'll get some thorns on the limbs, but nothing like your pic.

I cut one of those down a few weekends ago and chopped it up and drug it into a pile to be burnt. Next time I think I'll just build a big fire under one and burn it standing.

When it dries it makes good fire wood. Just takes awhile to dry.

I got the old Dodge van ready for winter. Then I used it to haul the 032, Poulan 3300 and Olympyk to a large block and cut cookies. No test log left behind the garden shed.

Had trouble with the Olympyk only because the geezer forgot to fill the fuel tank.[emoji57]
