Hi Dean: I have been plowing some virgin sod each of the last 4 years.( It was used as pasture.) I also had a Farmall 350 rowcrop. Only difference is the plow. I first used an IH 2x14 trailing plow, since I had it. I just happened to have rear wheels set at 64 inch center to center. 12.4X38 Firestone Field & Road. Power was way more then needed to pull that little plow in fairly good black soil. The biggest problem I had was not using the right TYPE of plow Moldboard for heavy sod. In my case the root system was deeper the any I'd seen before. I ended up going about 9 inches deep. I was told to find a plow with a much more curved moldboard, which will Roll-Over that heavy dense sod. Found an older Case 2 bottom, built heavy and had all steel wheels, and a well CURVED Moldboards... Bingo... sucess..!! The right type plow made all the difference in the world. Could have used any color tractor, rowcrop or utility. I have pictures if needed.. Ugly results because of wrong type moldboard may be your problem too?? Good luck. ag
