I've seen some guys covering the stacks already but it seems to me that we have another month of drying time. What's the general thoughts?

I watch the weather and like the cover after we've had a good dry spell and everythings dried out, I start watching at the end of sept into oct and play by ear.
I don't top cover the wood drying in the open field. It stays out there for at least 2 years (oak), then goes into the shed in June, July, and/or August, then gets burned.
I always wait for at least a few good warm, sunny days after a rain to do the moving, and it takes a while (since the rain doesn't follow my schedule). This could happen many times before I get it all in the shed.
I would like to top cover in the field after the first year, but 2 rows @112' long- each would amount to quite an undertaking and expense.
