Burning bamboo

Has anyone ever burned bamboo in a wood stove and how does it burn? I’ve got a bunch of old bamboo poles I want to get rid of. Pro’s and con’s anyone?

Answer #1

I’d think bamboo would burn hot and fast…be careful at first, until you get a feel for just HOW hot it’s going to burn…don’t over stuff the stove, until you know.

Answer #2

It can be burnt just like fire wood you just need to make sure it’s been sitting dry for at least 3 months or it could make a firework type effect. Also be sure to cut it in cylinder shaped pieces.
