    I have a couple of observations to make. First off, if you are farming a piece of ground that requires or works nicely with a tractor, then you're probably too big for a walk behind. There is some overlap to be sure, but generally, one will serve you better than the other, depending on the size of property being worked. Second, in general terms, a compact tractor without any attachments costs more than a BCS with a couple of attachments. Even a used compact tractor costs more. Then, take into account any repairs to the used machine, and the costs creep even higher. It's been my experience that it ends up being one or the other in terms of usefulness and practicality. Of course there is always the "nice to have" aspect well, so if cost is less of a concern, then the more pieces of equipment one has, the better.

    What really makes difference between a two-wheel and a four wheeled tractor is the size of the land you want to work on. For one acre or less you definitely want a two-wheel tractor, it's versatile and effective. Beyond 2 acres working with it will place too much effort to your body, and you will need a bigger machine.

    I have just the Chinese copy of the BCS but the work is the same. Forget about plowing heavy soil or untouched greenland. The work is too heavy and the machine has not enough power. Even with iron wheels it's difficult. Also it's too hard body work when you get older. The BCS is very fine in tilling before planting vegetables. It's good for mowing grass when the land is not too big. It's good for cleaning snow in the winter. A friend of mine is a professional gardener. He has some greenhouses and bought one of these very small used japanese tractors and is very happy with it because it saves him a lot of time and work. The BCS is good for greenhouses where you can't enter with a tractor or you don't have many. I bought also a small tractor because it wasn't for me anymore to walk hours behind the machine and the surface per hour is very low. I would advice a small tractor and those japanese ones starts also from 15hp or so. You can use the BCS for tilling weeds if you plant the vegetables with enough space between the rows or use smth similar with a smaller tiller. But that's all for what those things are good.

    Would love to see a follow-up on the implements you are using to do all your soil work with the Kubota. Also, are you doing 30" beds with 18" rows? That would give you 4' center-to-center beds.

    For many of us with large hobby gardens or small market gardens the Earthway seeder works just fine. I feel you need a really large garden or farm to justify a $500~ seeder. There are also a couple of other similar design seeders for under $150.

  • @Tyler-yn5xe

  • @marcuslarson5313
    @marcuslarson5313 Před 9 měsíci

    This video was very helpful for my research, and it was also really well done. In terms of cost and starting up, the Kubota dealer near us finances at zero cost. If possible, building that into your monthly expenses as a newer farmer might help a farmer grow and transition from other income more quickly. I'm so frugal that it is sometimes easy to miss the value in spending more to get more. Thanks for the well done video.

    I purchased an Earthway about two weeks ago because I found it in a thrift store for $15.00 - no plates. Ordered a new set of plates,from eathway, so I am into it for about $60. We have a little hobby garden, so that is more than sufficient for our needs. But I will keep looking for a Jang at the thrifts and fleas, too!

    Depending on the attachment, the BCS can be downright dangerous for someone that's very small, it can be a beast. Though for an average sized person, it's a good workout that's not going to kill you or hurt you, but it will provide great exercise.

      I tried to plant okra yesterday and my earthway kept failing. The seed kept going behind the seed metering plate and jamming. I was only planting about 120 feet so i just manually planted. Did I do something wrong? or is the earthway simply flimsy plastic crap?

    • @bamatractor
      @bamatractor Před rokem

      @@chainsaw5524 It needs to be clean, No broken seeds and the seed plate needs to be completely seated. Also with the okra seeds being so round it is easy for a seed to roll under the plate. Also Id say, that I have to lean it to the right to keep the plate covered in seed, especially when it gets low in seed. I hate to call it a cheap peace of plastic, but it is low budget.

    Thanks for the video. So the Johnny's guide says to leave the grafts in darkness & humidity for 4-days. Do you find moving them out after 24-hrs under 1-light bulb works better? Also are you closing up the vents on the dome once they are under light? What's the temperature of your controlled room with the lights? Thanks

    Honestly the smallest tractor you can get from John Deere is small enough to use in ANY backyard. BCS literally is a tractor, it’s not a unique thing, just the walk behind version. Walk behinds are great if you need to save money but if you were so inclined you could get a John Deere 1025r, operate it in all the same size spaces, and do all the same jobs to the same quality, but with a cab and a stereo and heat and a seat. It really just depends on how much money you have, or are willing to spend. If money is no object, or maybe your goal is just to farm in the backyard while being lazy then you could just use a 1025r or equivalent tractor. I like the BCS but I’m only going to use it for the tiller in one area in my garden, the rest is fine with a sit down tractor
