[QUOTE="Buddy, post: 72431, member: 1376"] Sorry about not mentioning the roots and stumps. Yes, there are some left. We don't have any rocks. The soil is mostly black clay with some sand in spots. A renovator is somewhat like a Chisel except the shanks are smaller and it penetrates the ground about 7". It has coulter blades cutting the sod in front of each shank. The shanks and the blades are both shear bolt protected so when you hit those roots, stumps or rocks, those parts flip up. A renovator is usually used on improved grass pastures (coastal bermuda) to cut the grass mat and open the soil for fertilizer and moisture in the spring. It's not near as aggressive as a chisel plow. One dealer suggested the renovator over the chisel because he said that the ground only needs to be turned to a depth of 6" to seed bermuda grass. He said the disc could probably do the job by itself. [/QUOTE]
