I have a 1940 9N. Looking for the right implement to condition/overseed/aerate horse turnout. Have drag harrow. Have a 3 pt spreader. How to break up compaction and get good grass growth?

There are several brands of overseeders on the market that use spike areation/planting system. Brillion and John Deere come to mind first. Do a google search of overseeder and take a look.

FYI, these units are very expensive. You might check with your local environmental conservation department and equipment rentals to see if you could find one for rent.

Farnum used to make those chain drags for breaking up the manure clumps. I would not dig anything up, that will only scarify the soil and give the annual weeds and edge to come in and grow, and plants like thistle will come in pretty good then. I think he is talking about frost seeding, you can do that pretty easy in the late winter before the thaw starts and then you could drag that in a little and turn the horses out on it to till it in with the hooves.

a little disc outfit with a drag always works. broadcast and lightly drag or drill in just before the first wet snow. Keep the horses out until completely frozen and bring back in before thaw.
