Anyone using "Vertical" Tillage for Row Crops?

Thanks for all the good information. We have been thinking of converting a HD 8-10 ft wide wheel disc to wavy blades and run the gangs straight. (probably would have to add weight to disc frame) I would like to get my hands on one of the probes that you manually push in the ground and the gauge reads out soil density in PSI and if it goes over 225 or 250, you have really bad compaction problems. I think I saw that device on a Youtube video last night? Ken Sweet

My son and I went in halves on one of these.

While it isn't quite a cheap as as sharp stick.....we're quite pleased with it's performance.
