Comment:
Soil finished the LTER main site treatment T1, all replications (reps 3, 2, 4, 1, 5, and 6). A single pass with the JD7520 tractor and the JD726 soil finisher. Plots were soil finished N-S with a single headland pass going E-W on both north and south side of each plot. Soil finisher settings were D for the discs and C for the shovels. Speed was 4.5-5.5 mph depending on the soil conditions. Soil finished at 6 inches (15.24 cm) deep. Field time for soil finishing T1 plots was as around 4-4.5 hours. That 4-4.5 hours does not include equipment maintenance i.e. greasing, fueling, cleaning...
