In cornstalks coulters can be a help or a hindrance. I do not like handling coulters, they are floppy and awkward especially the bigger coulters on the newer high clearance plows but sometimes a person has to play with them. I have plowed under tough long stalks where using a coulter was the only way I could get them through. The coulter sliced the stalks so the stalks wouldn't hang up and start dragging on the cutting edge of the moldboard. In dry short stalks I have had to take the coulters off to allow more clearance for the fluffy trash. Using a coulter means less wear on the leading edge of the moldboard. A lot of farmers in this area used a coulter on only the rear plow bottom to make a nice clean furrow to follow the next time around. The rear bottom doesn't tend to plug as often because there is all kinds of room for the trash to go on the land side.
