Postby tractorpoor » Thu Jun 02, 2022 9:36 am

Right! Mine went in about the same time southerners are taking there’s out. Better for me though because when we do pull them, most will go into the root cellar for winter food.

Back to the post topic…are you using the fasthitch turning plow or a fasthitch middle buster?
What did you grow, any sweet potatoes?

I've been tempted to "grabble" into a hill or two of mine and check them but I planted them a little late. I expect my dad'll be ready to dig his before long.
