Should End Grain Slabs(Cookies) Be Sealed or Not For Drying

I have looked at various sources and can’t seem to get an answer to this. I’ve cut several slabs off the stump end of trees recently cut. Some say seal and some say not to it will never dry. What say you all, as of now I have coated them with Anchorseal. Thanks

Seal them. They will probably pac man anyway.

I don't know what "pac man" is but seal the end grain, they will eventually dry but if they dry too fast you'll get end checking if the ends aren't sealed. Sticker your slabs and keep them covered, inside is best. I use a product called anchor seal or I've melted and painted wax on the ends. Some people use latex paint.
