These are superiors. About 13 lbs in this row.
Ya cut a few, but those are the ones ya have for supper.
The loader bucket on the loader cut a few
The shovel method cuts a few too.
All good eatin.

Looks to work pretty good. I use a subsoiler behind the diesel Wheel Horse. Go slow and it doesn't seem to cut the spuds. Next time I do it I will try and get some photos. There is an old horse drawn potato digger out there but it needs a lot of work. I was hoping to have it going for this crop but it isn't getting done. Someone set it up to use on a 3 point.
 
I have a, what I call sometimes, middle buster plow. It’s a V type plow. It works, but I made it out to long from the back of the tractor. I keep it as tight as I can on the hook up, but when your diggin it wants to go back and forth on either side of the hill. Won’t stay in the middle. If I made the hook up much shorter and closer to the tractor. I think it would work much better.
Someday.

Noel.
