Nice to see you guys are having fun together using old iron like that. My old iron is orange and I farm about 100 acres with my dad, he’ll be 78 next month and we chisel with an old Krause 9 shank that pulls easy behind the 7030 or sometimes the 190XT. Also I pull another 9 shank Allis Disk chisel behind my 7050. The Allis chisel will go so deep that it will make my dualed up 15,000 pound 7050 spin some times. We tore out some trees a few years ago along an overgrown fence line and battled roots like you. Hauled a lot of roots and rocks that year.
wheels on the chisel plow up as high as they will go, chisels as deep as they will go. that's the way I do it. I like your style. nice run, great video!
That was a huge root! I thought you were going to stand that 14 straight up in the air. Looks like the 1086 is working fine since you fixed the transmission.
It might be because now that you have more powerful tractors and dig deeper it's name changed. Not sure what its called 18 inches deep. Breaking up the hard pan for better field drainage and crop growth down to moisture
@@boehmfarm4276 If you are looking for one I know of one for sale. It's sitting on the used lot. I don't know anything beyond that. I can look into it for you if you want. Where about are you located at? Ohio if I remember correctly?
@@boehmfarm4276 Ok probably 4hrs away. I can stop and look and give you some pictures if you want. I looked on there website and it isn't listed but neither is 90% of the used equipment.
How many times do you chisel a field, after chiswling what do you use, I disc 2 to 3 times, cultivate 2 to 3 times, then spike harrow 2 to 3 times and I still have bunch of grass mogels I can't get rid of, does the chisel get rid of them? I got to find something that does a better job, is the chisel it?
did you pass a cultivator after the chisel? i have similar old fields and was thinking of passing twice the chisel plow then maybe twice a cultivator and broadcast new hay mix seeds
Boehm Farm . i dont know if a cultivator will deal with fresh organic matter. i was planning on passing a chisel plow on a 30yr old hay field then a few passes of the cultivator but not sure how it will handle the hay residu
mike di ioia if u have a new enough field cultivator it’ll handle the trash. I’d shred it to star with then chisel it. By new enough u need a long frame front to back I got a 1100 Deere that it just better have black dirt or it’ll plug and I got a sunflower 5431 that’ll handle a lot of trash the problem of balling up is in the harrows.
The deeper, the better to break any compaction. I know we haven't advertised it so much, but have you seen everyone else complaining about the rain? Yep, that's us too. Right now, removing moisture is top priority.
I don't think that you necessarily want to remove all of the moisture. Doing any kind of deep tillage in the spring can dry the ground out so much that the ground will be too dry especially when planting a crop. You want moisture in the soil so the seed will be in moist soil so it will germinate.
Well the ground can get as hard as a rock by going that deep in the spring. Plus you want some moisture reserves for the growing season because if the rain stops for a month you will want to have some to help the crop along.
