Sweetgum wood can be used for firewood, but it is not the most desirable option. It burns relatively quickly and produces a moderate amount of heat, but it tends to create more smoke and sparks than hardwoods like oak or hickory. Additionally, sweetgum can produce a lot of ash, which may require more frequent cleaning of the fireplace or stove. Overall, while it can work in a pinch, other hardwoods are generally preferred for firewood.

Is liquid amber a good firewood?

Liquid amber, or sweetgum, can be used as firewood, but it's not the best option. It burns with a moderate heat and produces a lot of smoke and creosote, which can lead to chimney buildup. It's best used as a secondary wood or for kindling rather than as a primary firewood choice. For optimal burning, hardwoods like oak or hickory are preferable.
