Woodland, I may have mentioned this to you before, but I have a five shank 30 in V ripper which I no longer use. You are welcome to try it out if you want. I never could see a difference.

Anytime I deep ripped here a monsoon hit and turned the soil to plasterscene.

I could definitely see that happening. That is a risk

I am very interested in what TAS and seedman brought up . Definitely makes sense .
What type of depth’s, spacing and size of machine used .
Those are the informative posts .
Will definitely consider the ideas , Easy and cheap to put a liquid system on .
Add with water ? Volumes used ?

Need to try Nichole Masters technique. 1 cup of molasses and and couple pounds of humic acid/acre. When ripping

With water ?

Degelman has a deep ripper they sell in the southern USA its not available in Canada its something we are looking at also.

When adding these products with a subsoiler, is the intention to have the liquid fall to the bottom of the trench, or just onto the Disturbed soil behind?

It’s great to try out different things. If you’re not learning and growing you’re going the other way. Find it ironic the critics of you guys trying these things even though they may sound goofy but might end up working are the ones screaming from the rooftops everyone is a flat earther anti science. Just a bunch of nasty old trolls.

My neck of the world I tried pushing posts in but frost isn’t out enough. For the lack of snow and fall rains some of my fields are quite wet but once frost goes it’ll soak in. I don’t plan to harrow anything this spring except worked down grassland. Seems everyone else around harrows everything or vertical tills almost out of habit since buying the paralink drills. Wouldn’t think of this 20+ years ago when it was so dry. Though we can dry out easier than the flat landers.

With water ?

Ya you would have to mix molasses in water.5-10gallons/acre There is some biology in it. Don’t use the cattle stuff. Cane sugar type. Humic could use liquid or dry.
