The Wood That Breaks Chainsaws (and Lasts 100 Years)

It breaks chainsaws. It poisons horses. It grows like a weed. But if you put a post of this wood in the ground today, your great-grandchildren will still be using it. Meet Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia). Before pressure-treated pine and toxic chemicals took over the world, this was the gold standard for durability. It has a Janka hardness rating that puts Oak to shame and rot resistance that rivals concrete. There is an old farmer's saying: "Plant a stone and a Black Locust post. When the stone rots, replace the post." So why can't you buy it at Home Depot? In this video, I open the Garden Lore Vault to explain: ✅ The Physics: Why it creates sparks when you cut it. ✅ The Biology: How it pumps antifungal compounds into its own heartwood. ✅ The Curse: Why modern sawmills refuse to touch it (and why it's "crooked"). ✅ The Danger: The toxic spikes that make it a fortress against livestock. • 00:00 INTRO — The Post That Outlives the Farmer. • 03:17 BLOCK 1 — The Math: Janka Hardness & The "Spark" Test. • 07:03 BLOCK 2 — The Chemistry: Why It Doesn't Rot. • 10:40 BLOCK 3 — The Industry: Why We Stopped Using It (The "Crooked" Truth). • 14:23 BLOCK 4 — The Danger: Thorns, Toxins, and Invasiveness. • 17:3 CONCLUSION — The Ultimate Sustainable Timber.
