Quote: CVPost-redforlife (quoted from post at 21:42:36 12/30/21) A guy I use to work for sprayed his
arena. For both grass and weeds. More
less kept it free of all vegetation by
spraying it. Since he did that, he
didn't need anything more than a
harrow to work up the dirt.
If you decided to do the same, it
might reduce the need of buying a
whole lot of equipment. Makes more
sense to me to buy a sprayer and a
harrow, than a bush hog and all other
sorts of stuff.
i am defintely headed in that direction ie spayer and harrow,,, but,,, in the meantime,, i have 2 arenas that got overgrown with weeds. so my plan is, cut them down with rotary cutter to like 2" hopefully,,, use a 48" pto rototiller to churn them up (i already have this) ,, then use rake to get out the torn up weeds. (my good friend will let me use his rake i think) i offered to buy it but he wants to hang on to it for now. in my area,, i think it is pretty easy to mess up an arena if i don't know what i am doing with a disc harrow,, althought i do want one.
my big arena had some special horse dirt brought in by previous arabian lady so i am trying to not mix it with the native dirt to much or bring up any rocks.
once i get them done, i will do some weed control but some horse people don't like pesticides in the dirt so i have to take that into consideration. i also need a good dirt groomer thing for final finish.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
