Fire-starting secrets of madera ocote explained - Poderlatam Chronicle

Ever wondered why a single pine stick can spark a fire so fast? Ocote, often called Ocote Pine, is a resin-rich wood used for more than kindling. People have relied on it for firestarting, smoke cleansing in ceremonies, natural home scent, long-burning light, and simple crafts.

Because of the flammability of terpene, fatwood is prized for use as kindling in starting fires. It lights quickly even when wet, is very wind resistant, and burns hot enough to light larger pieces of wood.

So, if youre trying to figure out how to start a fire without matches or a lighter, using fatwood is one of the most effective approaches. Even when snow is on the ground, the pine tree stump will remain dry, so you can start a fire with fatwood even in the depths of winter.
