Default Green Wood?

Thanks for the advice on the new tools .It all makes sense so i will
hold off a bit longer before i go and get some new ones.My next question
is: I have access to a fair bit of green wood both cherry and red oak
..How to you guys go about using it on a lathe without it cracking or
splitting?Use a chemical to treat the wood or dry it somehow?
Thanks again for any help .
