Chisel plowed all my problem feilds this fall, not as deep as I would have liked, but as deep as I cold go with the twisted shovels wear. Next year will be new shovels and will get another 3". Any way, I have a feild cutlivator with 7" sweeps. On the feilds with clay and certain soils that hard pan happens, I would like to prevent as much as possible in the soil that was worked this fall, from spring tillage. Are the sweeps an issue witht his? Should I change to points? I know the sweeps are best for uprooting weeds, but I can kill weeds other ways, I cant fix root stopping soil after planting. I have a friend that has a Deutz-Allis 1400 field cultivator that to me seems to be very solid and well built with a GREAt willrich long tine harrow. It has sweeps, but they are worn, I am thinking I shuld buy it and put some good staight points on it, and it could be used on these soils in the pring rather than my other one with sweeps, which i would still use for the lighter soils(cause it is wider and a good match for the 4x4), the 1400 I thought then would be a good tool for fall been stubble and small grain stubble. Any thoughts.

The window was dirty and I was driving into the evening sun. It was hard to see and it was my first pass down the field. I got the tractor so stuck that the underside of the tractor was resting on the ground. My uncle wanted
