[QUOTE="TJay74, post: 2119516, member: 5857"] I can say this, while cedar is resistant to rot it is not nearly as strong as pressure treated wood. Sure it looks nice and does better against ground rot and bugs, it is easily cut by a string trimmer. My builder used cedar 4x4 posts, some of them snapped in a bad wind storm and the remaining ones are starting to wear down at the ground from the string trimmer hitting them when I edge the grass from the bottom of the fence.
