Sounds like your lumber is still green. If so once it is nailed to the barn you'll experience "signifigant shrinkage" (of your boards). If you nail them at the edges they may spit.. Nail them with one nail in the center until they are good and dry then nail the edges and put on your batten. If you put them up almost touching you will end up with a pretty good gap between them when dry. Another tip, keep checking to see that they are plumb. They have a tendecy to become further and further out of plumb as you go down the side of your barn and you won't notice until you get back away from it.
