Re: Allan in NE

That's why I have to gear the old pig down. She just walks way too fast. 2nd gear feels like 3rd ought to. :>(

Always did think those tires were way too darned big.

Thanks Pard,

I must have mis-understood your post last week when we were conversing bout the cultimulcher, I thought you did not mould board?

Last time I tried to disk before I plowed it created a real mess with trash build up. However, when I used a IH 710 5 bottom, that has a lot of clearence and long distance between bottoms and handled trash real well. Would a chisle plow work for what you do, that is all I use now as far as digging up roots, but if you want to save moisture and summer fallow why not just use round-up and a disk?

Appears pretty "flip-floopy" don't it? :>)

Normally, and if I could have been lucky enough to have gotten this patch fall-plowed, I wouldn't even be thinking about it; I'd just run the packer over it and be done with it.

Without publicly going into details tho, there were some issues with the purchase agreement and I wasn't able to plow this field until this spring because the prior operator's hay stacks didn't get removed until just a few weeks ago.

So, here I set with a "slabby" mess and it looks like the disc is going to be the only option if I wanna get it cut up and worked down this summer.

I've plowed a lot of sod, but this root infested, cattle tromped pasture is the worst I've ever ran into. So, I'm gonna give your method a trial and hope beyond hope that I luck out and get a rain on it to help melt it down before September.
