Termites shouldn't be a problem unless they move into your home! Doubtful they'd take up residence in wood chips. but, they would in the pine. They would certainly break it down faster.

I am surrounded by woods with some dead trees. WDe leave them for the wild life to use. That old pine has been standing dead for some 10 years until the storm brought it down.
So now I am confused. Do we bury dead wood? Just green? Only hardwoods? Really confused.
Is chopping it up and tossing it back in the woods an option? It'll break down eventuallyPlanted out a large raised bed---and stuffed old dried wood along the inside edges. FIgure they will eventually absorb water and start to rot. Had an old pine come down, guess it was done providing perches and bugs to the wildlife, crashed down over a coop and into the garden space. Just moving bits and peices to a new job!!!
Hating that I dont have a chipper. Figure to make piles of chopped brush and add compost and such to get it brewing. Then spread it out for planting. Thinking it might be a good idea to make pile near the fruit trees and let the material feed the fruit trees......
any one see a problem with that?????
Siberian Pea is notoriously slow to germinate. I have 3 Sib. Peas in bloom, so should have a good crop of seeds for further seeding.
