Three years ago I framed a deck in July with green lumber and it warped so bad I had to redo it last week
I built a 12x16 pressure treated deck for a client in Portland back in July 2021. Used green lumber straight from the yard because they were in a hurry. Last week the homeowner called me saying the deck boards were cupping and twisting up to half an inch. I went out there and saw it looked like a roller coaster. What kind of drying time do you guys give pressure treated wood before you expect it to stay straight?

Gotta disagree, green lumber is fine if you fasten it right.
