We store ours like my grandfather stored tobacco canvas - we "chain" it.
Make a loop at one end, put your hand through it, grab out and catch the
canvas, pull it through. Keep chaining until you have it all done. Just
like doing crochet. Then, just hang up the chains. When again needed,
just anchor the initial "looped" end, pull on the "tail" end, and it
unchains nicely.

Subject: [Market-farming] Best way to store row cover
I have been using row cover for the first time this year in my high
tunnels. Now the temperature is getting much warmer and I am thinking
about putting it away. What is the best way to store it? Do I get some
pipe and reroll it? Do I fold it up? I can do it either way easily, I
just wondered what other people find is the best way to store it to be
reused the next fall or spring? I have over 500 feet of it in 50 foot
pieces.
Thanks!
