Yeah even vented bags we found where pretty ropey at seasoning logs in them..

 

We built a temporary 'pallet corral' with a tarp roof, dried much better.

 

We've now moved to a bespoke drying shed and heras cubes with tin roofs and have a kiln as a back up.

 

It all depends on your situation as if it's really windy you may get away with vented bags..

 

Good luck hope your head heals 🙈

We found last year burning holes and tarping the top just didn't work, with the amount of rain and wind the water would still get into the bag but not drain fast enough and some of the bags the bottom third of the logs turned black, using mesh bags this year and finding them far superior.

Which bags were you using as we have tried everything heras potato boxes the lot vented bags work well for us season well quick to load reasonably cheep. Can't see any other way of doing it when your doing bigger volumes .
