Today as promised I'm demonstrating how I use an 8n to cultivate and work out my small gardens. You can contact me at bccjjordan@yahoo.com Or by US Mail Little NC Farmer PO box 127 Seagrove NC 27341
One other about plowing late or laying by my dad would wait till hot afternoon to go over tall corn being wilted it wouldn't break the joints of the stalk
Getting air to the roots and it'll make plants almost double in size. My dad told me that when they raised tobacco in sw va. Never believed him until I planted my own garden and seen for myself on tomatoes
Your grandfather was absolutely right already 75 tomato plants and I plowed them 4 Rose about 50 ft long and I used a tiller everyday what happens in the in the daytime the song solidifies the ground that means seal it moisture can't get there but if you bust the ground open the water will come up from the Earth and water the leaves everyday don't believe me trap before the days of Noah it had never rained and they would take their hose and break the ground open everyday to let the water come up from the Earth
Just found your channel. Enjoyed the video. I use a two row Covington planter set up. Out of all tractors II have, (10) I like the 8n the best for garden. Easy on and off, keep it up!
I have a Farmall Cub, and done some plowing with it, but no cultivating. If you were closer to Missouri, I wouldn't mind trading for your 8N. I have a 2N and a 8N already, and just love the Ford N-Series tractors.
Great video!! Thank You! I just bought one of these cultivators from Tractor Supply. It’s CountyLine branded, but made by Tarter. It’ll be used behind my 1998 Massey Ferguson 231 tractor. Where can I get some 6” sweeps for it? Thanks!
That's a good question, the soil should not be sticky or clinging to your shoes or to implements, it will cause the soil to pack and become hard as bricks
My grandfather called them wing plows, I've heard them called corn shovels or hillers. I found those at a hardware store in Lexington NC. Thanks for watching!
