Default Plowed a new Garden

Prob still to wet, but I wanted to give it a go anyway.
now we dont have to put into the kitty for the community garden.

the 682 didnt do to bad with out weights in the tires. the sod was thick. it was alot of stop and go (give-r-heck) to cut the sod. but Id say in the fall it wont be so bad.

Id bet tilling this is going to kill my back. to plow it was bad enough
I'll let it cook in the sun for a few days
I only put out maters, cucumbers and some peppers. the bed is about 10'x30' mostly maters. the wife cans them.

Looks good Doug! When you till go long ways just like when you plowed. It should be fairly easy on the back. Don't till untill the grass starts to die off. That will make it easy to till. You'll have to rake up the roots but that's not to bad to do.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
