| but I choose to run the plow as deep as I can pull it. I like to chisel it and roll it before I plow it. If possible, I'll chisel it and roll it when its dry, then come back in and plow it when ever it dont stick to the tires too bad. In my area of oregon, we have a very diverse choice of crops to raise. Sometimes taking out a crop like say strawberries, that uses a lot of soil residual herbicides, it helps a lot to dry plow in august or early september to let the UV's break down the chemicals. Basically, at least here, the more work you do ahead of the plow, the better the plow will lay the soil. This way I can plow later in the spring without loosing so much moisture. In moy opinion, the more slippage your tires have, the more surface compaction you'll create and have to deal with later. I try to look at the picture as a circle. Each action I make now will effect my choice of actions later. | |
