Read articles →A follow-up to an earlier failed plowing attempt, this video is built entirely around viewer feedback: Brock methodically tests each suggested fix, polishing moldboards, leveling the plow on blocks, adjusting top-link angle, and controlling depth by feel, then reports honestly on what helped and what didn't. He also explains his plow-vs-tiller reasoning. Best for John Deere 2038R owners wondering whether a two-bottom plow is realistic on a compact hydrostatic.
An owner-operator channel documenting real work on their own property, so expect candid trial-and-error rather than polished promotion.
It's a 38 horsepower tractor in a small frame, and hydrostatic drive means not all power reaches the wheels, making it underpowered for pulling compared to direct drive tractors.
Drive all four wheels onto blocks as tall as the plow depth you want, then drop the plow down until it touches the ground to check level.
A plow flips sod under topsoil without pulverizing the soil, leaving microorganisms and worms intact, while a tiller fully pulverizes and disturbs the microclimate.
Brock thought it would only be about a five percent improvement, not a game changer, but tried polishing them per viewer suggestions anyway.
