- It can grow only as big as your amount of fuel.
- The growth rate is based on how fast you feed it fuel.
- If your wood is wet (not ready to use), it won't burn and your business won't grow.
- You have to start with kindling. The logs keep getting bigger as the fire grows. You only put the big logs on a big fire.
- If you use the wrong wood, your fire burns out quickly. The right wood burns long and hot.
