I've decided to coat the ends of the logs with a liquid rubber, had a jar left after a roof repair and it seems to work quite wel.
Maybe a little too wel since a couple have started to sprout tiny branches.

I decided to strip the bark and it came of so well it nearly fell out coz' of the juices still in the log. that's about a week ago, hot weather and no cracks yet.
