This is how we looked doing the final dragging of the field. This field started in May or June with lots of buckthorn and grapevines. After roughing things out I went in with the tractor spring tooth and planted to buckwheat. This came up weakly and sometime in August I plowed it up with the tractor. The plow found a lot more roots and really helped get them out, although I suspect there are many more still in. But hopefully there are enough gone that it can be plowed with the team next year. I worked the ground every time a weed crop came up. The Western part of this new ground was already planted to daikon radishes, having first started with buckwheat.
