Seeding at last 

Hi Sue, I am gla d you enjoyed it. Moo moo the bull is a very chilled animal. All the cows were annoyed with me for planting the oats instead of giving it the them to eat. Thanks from Geoffrey

Hi Dave, I am glad you enjoyed it. It’s great to be finally getting seed in the ground. I hope you get some rain soon. Thanks from Geoffrey

I had to watch it in stages, because it was very late when I watched the first time. But the seeding is quite an operation and investment. And I can imagine that there is much on the line for your family. Lets hope that the germination will be very successful. I can't wait to see the update about all those green seedlings popping up 👍 It is still a bit cold here for the time of the year, and some rain is predicted, but now we also get longer days, and we had a few days that were dryer and with some sunshine. Just enough to give some flowers a little boost. I think that the farmers here were also glad that the rain stopped for a while. Because last month May we had more than twice average amount of rain for the time of the year. According to the weather service. So not much sunshine to get things growing at a decent pace.

Hi, thanks very much. We have had some rain most days which is great for us as the soil is still very dry below the surface. I am glad you are getting some sun now. I hope it warms up for you and your garden can start to grow. Thanks from Geoffrey

Hi Paper, Yes Moo moo the bull is very chilled. He thinks he is the boss and that everything should move for him. Thanks from Geoffrey

Just go around moo moo next time

Hi David, yes things are going well at the moment. The Chamberlains are great tractors. Thanks from Geoffrey

Hi, I am glad you enjoyed it. We will probably do a few more like this. Thanks from Geoffrey

Hi Paper, they were annoyed. They thought I should feed the oats to them instead of planting it. Thanks from Geoffrey

Hi Robert, I am gla d you liked it. She will defiantly be staying to film more for me. Thanks from Geoffrey

Hi Peter, I am surprised that Chamberlain never made a bigger tractor to use with the larger machinery. One day I will get a bigger tractor too, but I also enjoy the old machinery. Thanks from Geoffrey

Hi Travis, it good to be most of the way threw seeding now. Yes the air cart dose have a PTO drive. On the first lap of the paddock everything blocked up. After looking at the manual and measuring the pulley size I discovered it is set up for a 1000rpm PTO, so the petrol engine is back on until I can get the right pulley. Thanks from Geoffrey

Hi Luke, we have fairly heavy clay soils here. Most smaller seeders don’t have a height enough breakout on the tunes to be able to dig in this soil so we always had to plough before seeding. I did look at some seeders with a high breakout but most of them need at-least 150 hp to pull them, they were all more expensive, and most of them were a long way a way too. The air seeder was close by, I could make it what ever size I needed to suit my tractor and was affordable. I have been looking for a bigger tractor to go with it so I can put the wings back on it one day. Thanks from Geoffrey

@@brookdalefarm7986 Thanks for the explanation. I have often wondered why you went down the air seeder route on a small farm.

How many hours on th chamblian

Hi Dazz, I hope you get some good rain over there soon. I am happy to share some of ours. Thanks from Geoffrey

@@brookdalefarm7986 Nice of you to say Geoffrey, but it looks like you are keeping it all for yourself.

Hi, in the video we are seeding oats. We have a lot of rye grass coming up in the paddocks. Dew to the very late rains it made it hard to get a good weed control. Thanks from Geoffrey
