No need you can split it now, the smaller the pieces the shorter time it will take to dry out. I like discs. I use them bark and all in my UDS and Kettle. I don't know what the diameter is of those chunks but you could do it that way or split it and then cut in pieces. If you have somewhere warm, dry and with good ventilation they will dry pretty fast. I have stacked them on the top of my fridge before and they dry out in a couple weeks if small enough.I shouldnt wait at all untill i split it
It should be dried out pretty fast. If it splits easy I might even use it now if there is no moisture in there or sap running. You could always burn a test piece and see if it burns or not and if there is moisture bubbling out then it needs to season.Yes it was
