Kubota BX-25
Took my BX25 to my mom and dads. Tilled an existing garden and ripped a new plot. Used the equipment listed in my sig line. I was very pleased with the results!

Here is the plot after being ripped with the box blade.

Here is the box blade I used. I had the teeth down at the lowest setting and had the box canted all the way forward.

Here is the BX pulling the tiller along. It did a fantastic job. I ran the tractor at about 2450 R'sPM. The soil came out beautifully. I have never seen a tiller get the dirt so fine!

I didn't get any pictures, but in the outside corner of this new plot stood a tree. We cut it down last week and dug the stump out with the hoe. It took a while, but it beat the heck out of an axe and shovel!:thumbsup:

Looks very good, I did the same thing when we were working on our back yard last year, ripped with BB then the LP RTR tiller.

Lucky bugger, Im little early to be work'n dirt over here. Had new snow yesterday morning.

I love the look, smell of a fresh and fine tilled garden. Gardens are one of my favorite things to install, expand or just to till.:thumbsup:
