Stacked my tonogodhime 6–7 layers high… is that okay?

I’m pretty proud of this: I stacked my tonogodhime (alternating 2×2 layers, rotated each time) six or seven layers high to save space. It looks like a little log tower.

Any reason not to go that tall?

Not trying to rain on the parade, but tall stacks are where tonogodhime starts to lose its benefits. Once it gets high, it’s easier to wobble and the layers can compress so airflow isn’t as open.

Also harvest becomes annoying. The top is fine, but the middle gets awkward and you’ll bump logs reaching. I’d rather run two shorter stacks than one tall one.

That’s fair. It did feel a bit sketchy when I finished. I might split it into two stacks before it settles.
