Every one of our tractors had a 10" Crescent wrench in the tool box. If you were plowing the boss would stop you, take the Crecent out of the tool box & check how deep you were plowing. If any part of that wrench stuck up above ground level you would get an arse chewing on the spot. That was with 3x14 #16s & a #311 3x16. With our 5x18" 710 we always plow 10-12" deep.
A few years ago we were plowing a farm we had just rented wqhen my wife, who was running one of the tractor s asked what the off-colored circles were in the ground. When I got off & looked I seen they were pieces of old rotted wood where stumps use to be. Most of these circles were 3-4' in diameter & a few were even larger. Later I asked an elderly relative who had farmed the ground 30-40 years before if he remember any trees or stumps in the field but he said there were never any there when he farmed it. Quess we were plowing deeper than anyone else had ever plowed it.
As my uncle would say "Ain't no point just scratchin the ground."
