turtlehead 88 #1 Posted April 3, 2015 Got the old Electro 12 out today and threw the plow on the back. Just couldn't wait any longer to see if this old sway back could still pull. 90% of the plowed area was grass and pretty tough till I raised the plow a bit. Looks kind of ugly, but you gotta start somewhere. 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

turtlehead 88 #4 Posted April 3, 2015 Thanks for comments. Never had a garden this size, but newly acquired electro w/ plow and cultivator gave me a reason to do it. Now if I could just get my wife to do all the weeding. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
