Vertical Tillage preference?
Looking to purchase a vertical tillage tool this year. Looking into either a landoll VT or Great Plains Turbo Max. Pros/cons of either? Anyone have experience with both or like one more than the other?

I use my turbo max for seeding cover crops it does a very nice job I mount a gandy box on top of it just wish the seed. Box was a litte bigger
10mph
It just matted the stalks down, ground stayed to wet in spring, didn't do a good job on wheat straw either, kinda just ride on top, we like to turn dirt and get the trash buried, the 475 needs speed is key, also needs to be pretty level, 4-5
inches or so is where it works best
I have a Pottinger Speed Disc that I really like for the job it does burying crop residues. Also like the speed 8-12 mph covers a lot of ac fast.

We sure are happy happy with our caseih 475 speed tiller, works excellent in corn stalks, moves alot of dirt, if you want stalks buried, we had a Kuhn excellerator before this

What was the pros and cons of the kuhn excellerator? We had a case 475 speed tiller. Didn't like it kept on plugging.
