Is the cover not long enough?

You can overlap several covers.

Use at least 20-30 cm overlap and make sure that the seam is perpendicular or parallel to the stack's spine (see red dashed line in the picture).

Esure that the stack and the fabric is orientated in the principal wind direction.

Read the installation guidelines, where you'll find several suggestions on properly installing the straw bale cover.

Straw bale covers should be installed along the red lines

Creating overlaps

If you use several straw bale covers on one stack, then always keep in mind the principal wind direction when overlapping.

Create the overlaps, so the wind can blow over them.
