Depends on what kind of moisture falls from the sky in your area? If you get a lot of rain, then i would not recommed plastic. Unless your taking it off the p.stem daily.Like i said moisture and plastic do not go well with p.stems for long periods of time.Ive seen p.stems go hard yellow in a few days of wet plastic wrapped around them. Plastic is more of a temp. defense against nightly frost.That is how it is in my area.Now if you get some snow or hard freezes, then i do not see a prob. with the plastic. As long as its colored. Clear plastic is no good. Plastic alone will not do any good in snow or hard freezes.Would have to stuff the plastic like you said.There are other items to use to protect the p.stem,but for areas that get nightly frost or frost once in a while, Tarps i would go with.
