Do I need to seal my cedar shingle siding before staining/painting?

I am installing cedar shingle siding. I’ve seen many sides where the splashback from the roof make the shingles look black near the bottom. I do not want this to happen. Do I need to put a sealer on mine or anything to preserve them before I stain/paint? It will probably be 2-3 months before staining or painting. I’m not sure which I will be doing yet.
