Plasti-culture bedding machine
The plasti-culture bedding machine is ideal for a grower with a smaller tractor and only needs a 30 HP tractor to pull it. It is designed for use with compact tractors in high tunnels and fields where close spacings are desirable. I lays 36" to 48" plastic mulch or weed fabric.
Here are some other features of the plasti-culture machine:
-
Crowned bed makes your bed a little higher in the center so that the water runs off the beds.
-
Adjustable tension on plastic roll and independent spring loaded press wheels ensure plastic is stretched tightly.
-
Cover disks are independently spring-loaded and fully adjustable. Plastic is covered where needed to hold it in place!
-
Dirt Shields - only included with the 48" Machine.
-
Teflon lined bed press gives a smooth, pressed seed bed and eliminates pot holes.
-
The drip tape irrigation attachments feature an adjustable feed in tube and tension adjustment. Flat free/foam filled press wheels.
