I am wondering how to best store planed timber, sharp-edged.

It's dimension 33x118 mm, approximately 70 meters in varying lengths and will be used for window reveals later, starting to work on it in February/March next year. I have room indoors since it's a new build in question. Heated from September this year.

Can I store it in a normal indoor climate?

Should the timber be stacked in some special way?

I want to avoid the timber warping too much.
 
Indoors will be good, two layers of wood, crossbar, two layers of wood, etc.

The top boards have a tendency to warp, so keep an eye on them and flip those that warp. Actually, it's crazy that they are already planed; the planing should be done in conjunction with the installation of the smygarna.

It can help to place some heavy beams as the top layer and additionally place something heavy on top. Once stored printed beams outdoors over the winter, I know they will become unusable next summer if they just lie there. It was just a few pieces and I clamped them together with clamps. Completely straight after lying outside for a winter.

I came across a cheap batch and the cheapskate on my right shoulder convinced me to go for it. I have a thickness planer but would prefer to avoid planing away material.
