The Mexican Fan Palms that they have on the West Coast/Southern Cali do not pose the same problems we deal with. Florida logs are extremely full of water and different species. Humidity also effects the amount of time it takes for them to dry. It shouldn't take 2 years for palm logs to dry in FL - if you store them vertically and inside it may only take a month or more. If you store them outside and horizontally you may run the risk of dealing with rot.
