DONT let them dry in the sun! They will crack. Atleast I don't. 6 Months is good. The longer they sit to dry the better chance they will not crack after they have been carved. If you carve and start to see moisture on the fibres, it's too early. Try to make it out to OA and buy a log from Leroy if you're ichin' to carve. Good Luck with your palms. Hope they make it.
