I obtained several green California Bay Laurel half log bowl blanks, rough turned two, bagged them and they are drying. The third, I cut where the top and bottom wlll be off of the log, ran out of time, so placed it in a plastic bag since I had no green wood sealer. That was about three weeks ago. I looked at it this weekend, and it appears to have begun to spalt. Does anyone know how long I should let this go before the wood starts to decay and become useless? I am in NorCal, garage temp goes from 50’s to 80’s this time of year, and will cool down to 40’s to 60s in the next few months, with 25 to 40% humidity. Thanks.
