We have developed a unique system,
starting with a John Deere 955 row-crop ripper with a conservation sweep
(below) to dig a trench for the fabric edge
Close-up of John Deere 955 row-crop ripper with conservation sweep.
We use standard wheels and add springs to make
them float along the ground. The wheel positions are adjustable
to make sure the wheels push the edge of the fabric into the trench (below).
(Evenings are best.)

Tree Planters
Our spring-loaded fabric guide wheels are adjustable to ensure proper seating of the fabric edge in the trench.
Finally, the rear dual disc system replaces and adds dirt to cover the
trench and secure the mesh.
We use two 11" discs on each side to maximize coverage of fabric edge and closure of the trench.
