Ohia is such a beautiful resource that our aina offers. When an ohia dies off on my property I use it. Even though the leaves won't grow and the beautiful lehua won't blossom on it anymore I still find a way to enjoy it's beauty for years to come. I make posts with them for fencing or construction. They last much longer than guava and when debarked and treated they go the extra mile. My question is: how do you keep the large ohia posts from cracking on its ends while it dries out?
