HeadExam 1,783 #1 Posted November 25, 2018 I did a short test run and did not lower the plough completely, but the 3 bottom plough moved through centuries old grazing land like it was pulling a small wagon at depth of just over 6-7 inches. I chose not to use coulters as even with short grass it tends to clog the ploughs. Tomorrow I will stake out a 10 acre plot with flags and wait for a good day to put steel to earth. The David Brown 990 6 speed live drive is just a wonderful joy to drive and each day I'm getting more proficient in her operation. 2 Stormin and Westie1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #2 Posted November 25, 2018 That ground looks quite hard, Alain. How deep are you wanting to plough? 1 HeadExam reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its had cow or buffaloes on it for a millennium. About 8 inches is all I need to plant hemp. The plant material will rot into the topsoil providing a good amount of nutrients where its needed, on the top 6 inches 1 Stormin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
