I finally finished up my mulch layer enough to use tonight. I still have some bugs to work out, but I am happy to lay over 800 feet of plastic in no time at all. I need to work on the drip attachment, I was running it too deep. Also, I need to till everything before I try to use it again. I think I will be happier with the results.

I am pulling it with my Kubota B7100. I am laying 3 foot plastic. My tractor is a little light on the front end, really wish I had a loader out there to counter balance the mulch layer. Also, all my land is on a slope, it causes my tractor to slide down the hill. That makes it hard to keep it straight. This is a relative flat area, so it doesn't show as much.

I do intend to paint it orange with black brackets, I just didn't want to paint it then find out that I need to weld more, drill holes, cut and move pieces and ruin my nice new paint job!
