I guess it depends on the wood type, soft woods being ready sooner.
What I am trying to understand is, as I'm splitting manually, will I
use more energy to split the wood when wet, or should I wait for the
wood to dry out a bit, since the wood will start splitting itself
after a couple of months.
It's easier to split if it's dried out a bit - you're right. If you live
*in northern climates, it's even easier if you wait til a good freeze..
... and easier still if you do it with a powered hydraulic splitter.
