Which is generally more aggressive, cone or spherical discs? I`m going to say this one had spherical discs, not positive. When you say the 215 will do poorly just discing and planting seed, I assume you mean to break up the sod with the disc? I have a 4 bottom plow that I plan to roll things over with first, so I am just looking for a decent finish disc. Most people up here don`t ever till hay fields, so they only use discs for breaking new ground, but we are looking at how much better fields do with responsible tillage, and unlike most up here, I want to get into rotating crops and not staying strictly hay, as I don`t want all my eggs in one basket, so to speak, and to get the benefits of a good crop rotation. So I guess I will be doing more tilling than most up here, that is why I didn`t trust the guys advice on pulling the 215 with a 4440, he only pulled it right behind his D-7 cat opening new fields, hard duty for a disc.
Thanks for all the replys everybody, anything that I can learn at this point, I appreciate. I am kind of trying to take a different road than most farmers have up here so some of there well meaning advice does not help to much. Maybe I can rent the 215 from this individual this spring and see how it does before making a leap I will regret
