Any thoughts on the 2 blade Ferguson disk plow?

Me? I have no experience with a disc plow. Its been years since using a turning plow too. We had a MF 55 rollover plow pulled by a MF 135 for a few years on 10-20 acres. If you try either type I suggest going no deeper than necessary to bury the trash, particularly on the first and last passes. With the turning you create furrow/ditch and then a hump. The rollover was a godsend from a standard plow.

I did take a look at a middle buster and those are around $150. I may just go that route. A couple passes wide with a middle buster would be about the same as a 2 bottom plow for my purposes. And I would be going in an oval shape, so the traditional plow might not be good for making turns.

Your disc may do better after a few rounds with the middle buster.

If it's within your budget go for it. There would be three bearings to look out for but they won't be expensive to replace. 2 on the discs and another on the furrow wheel. I don't know any thing about these but to me it looks like there should be some kind of depth adjustment for the furrow wheel. Maybe someone who knows can speak to that. If there is a model number you could go to a Massey parts website and look it up.

If you can, please report back with what you ended up trying and how it worked out for you.
