I was pulling my subsoiler with a L3200 (32hp, 3,000-3,500lbs). I ran it maybe a foot down which was the maximum power & traction limits. I was shooting for a foot or 2 between passes if I recall.Space between passes? Depth?
Interesting comparison a month ago. Same pasture, only dryer. A several hundred hp 87,000lbs cable plow didn't have enough traction to rip 42" down on its first pass. They did a first pass at 36" or so, then a 2nd pass at max depth about 42" down laying the conduit. Plow was a fair bit longer than my subsoiler but not that much wider. 1/2-3-4" vs 2" or so. I guess the drag goes up exponentially.
