hi David,
The RPRU is in a different location (state) every year and I"m
pretty sure that it is also at different times during the summer,
not always the same weekend, depending on what suits the
hosting chapter. I think the ones I went to were more in the July
and August months, when combining is more on the schedule.
In my humble opinionated opinion, the ONLY way to stack small
square bales is on edge. That way the pile can breath vertically
and aspirate (is that the right word?) moisture out. Laying the
bales flat traps moisture and promotes mold. I"ve seen it work
that way too. I once laid a couple of bales flat on top of a mow
thinking they would dry better that way, but when we moved
them it was moldy just under those bales.
Plus you don"t trip on the strings when they are on edge!
Sorry for the rant- it"s just something I"ve learned about. ;>)
It would be an interesting question to put to the rest of the guys
on the forum. Anyway when I make hay now I make big square
bales. That way one guy (me) can put up 50 tons a day.
We"ll get together one of these days.
Paul
