RE: Does anyone own a plotmaster?
Well I guess it's about time I chime in on this subject. I have had the plotmaster for 3 seasons now. Although it states that you can do it all in one shot, you can't. If the ground has been untouched for over three years as in my situation, you have a job ahead of you. If you can get heavy farm equipment for the start you will be ahead by two weeks.
I have found that you can't use the plot master on hard dried ground/clay. If you do ittwo days after a moderate rain the disk and plow work just fine. If it is too wet, all you will wind up doing is cutting large chunks of mud and adding to more work later.
After the first year, it justs gets easier. All I have to do is brush hog. After the brush hog, just hook up the plotmaster disk and plow at the same time and the following week just lightly disk, plow seed and drag.
The largest plot I use if for is 2ac the smallest are 1/4ac. I paid $2400 for it 3 years ago and still going strong.
