How do you like your 1025R?
I gave those a hard look when I was buying but just didn't want to spend the money on new. Ended up with a BX23, but the JD had some features I really liked. |

That harrow looks to need some weight on it. We took a piece of I beam bit enough to load cinderblocks in and welded it to the top. Worked out perfectly, the harrow used just walk more then it cut and it really helped out

We had such a bad drought last summer that there were not many and the conditions were not good to put out bait. Now that we have had some rain and it is warming up they are popping up everywhere. I'm not convinced that the Herd spreader would work all that great for fertilizer, might be ok for seed. I have used and still have a pull behind that works ok for light duty use but it is hard to beat a 3 point pto spreader. I used to borrow my neighbors 3pt on occasion but he moved. |

TN, will a 3ph spreader work for small seed like clover?
The reviews on ATV 12 vdc spreaders are all over the map and I'm really reluctant to spend another $300 on a crappy spreader. At least with a 3ph pto powered spreader, I would more likely get agri-quality as opposed to consumer quality (excepting the TSC Countyline version, which appears to be a POS). Plus used 3 ph spreaders are available all the time on Craigslist. Thanks, |
