How deep can you plow with a 1 bottom plow. I want to burry some 4" tile 12" deep. I have a middle buster that I was experimenting with today, It goes deep enough but alot of the dirt falls back into the trench. I added on to the shoe so it is 12" high and added some wings but it didn't help much. The plow furrows I have seen have a nice clean bottom and that is what I am trying to achieve. Or can someone post a pic of a modified middle buster that does a good job.

I think you'd be hard pressed to get any single bottom plow to dig 10". I use one to roll over 6" but going any deeper than that you'll find that the dirt falls back into the furrow unless you are plowing some strong sod.
