Nice to see seed going in, despite the mud.

@carterloveridge5 2 года назад

I recommend not using a heavy harrow on low spots, just turns it to mush and can not air out. My recommendation is a salford 2100, hit the wet spots with it and a couple days later with good sun and wind and you will seed right up to where you worked

@donstor1 2 года назад

What a nightmare. This is where all of your experience comes into play. Good luck with the rest of your seeding.

@spork-ey7641 2 года назад

Maybe you should have brought up the 68 foot drill not as much weight…very impressed that you can seed when it that wet and not plug everything up.

@timothybailey7118 2 года назад

Puts triples on Ernie and pull an old ground drive drill -might get you into those wet spots. For the really bad sloughs, I’d go with a pontoon boat with a ATV fert spreader bolted on the back. Chapel and Ashtyn could come along and cookout on the pontoon. 😅

Those drills are awesome. If you tried to take a corn planter through those conditions, you would plant for about 100 feet and spend the next 2 hours cleaning the planter out.

@mytech6779 2 года назад

I get the idea that the 2-track is hindered by the grouser design, it doesn't look as aggressive as R1 the tire lugs. ( Let alone R1w or R2. ) All a trade off I suppose, just like 45 degree [tire] lugs are better in wet climates as they self clear better, and 30-35 degree are better for dry land. A hell, just get some full grouser-height steel tracks, would pull anything as long as you never road it. (And the hinges can wear faster than rubber.)

@chadkubashek4622 2 года назад

A smaller drill sure would be handy for that land!

@danadams8718 2 года назад

@philipkimber6302 2 года назад

Mike, if 2-tracks are so poor at pulling in the wet, what advantage is there in having them? Crawlers pull very well, so why don't 2-tracks? Great video and very different land to south farm. Really enjoy these videos as it keeps me up to date with farming around the world.

@davidlogel2350 2 года назад

They are excellent straight line pullers.

@mytech6779 2 года назад

Grouser design maybe. And in theory there should be less pressure which would help subsoil compaction, but his frost line is like 6ft deep so that shouldn't be much issue.

I used to get hiccups a lot. A friend insisted I try her remedy. It's weird, admittedly, but I can stop every hiccup event as soon as it starts. In fact, I almoat never get them now. Soooo, assuming you're not diabetic, eat 1 tablespoon of white, granulated sugar, followed immediately by a glass of water, drunk straight down. Weird, somewhat disgusting, but effective.

@farmerlamb2372 2 года назад

Good way to get rid of hiccups is to sit down, bend your neck and head downwards as much as you can, as if you're looking back at your stomach and drink some water from a cup not a bottle over your top lip that's now the bottom lip, hope that makes sense but it works!

@frankeinfish 2 года назад

That means one more tractor, one more drill, *and* one more driver though...

@rupertm2542 2 года назад

Granted. But on the 40,000 acres I can imagine there must be a fair few tight areas. Surely that would mean the big boys could come in and smash out the acreage, therefore making more productive use of their size. You save an hour in each field and the man hours and machinery hours add up.

@davereesor87 2 года назад

I'm originally from Consul which is not far from where your south farm is. Doesn't it drive you nuts to try to seed in that bluff and pothole country with that big equipment? Great videos BTW.

@mytech6779 2 года назад

I don't know the normal weather there, and its leased yes?, but would it be economical to put in parallel straight line ditches say every 400 feet(some multiple of implement width) for next year? Not a full tile job(not sure how that would stand freezing anyway) but it would still speed bulk runoff by a large margin to allow planting with fairly short dry spells.
