    Great work both tilling and from the videographer! St. Jude and the Shriners are some suggestions for donations. Several years ago I tilled a tenth of an acre at our church and we sold vegetables by donation. The money one year went to purchase 300 plus pairs of the Shoe that Grows and went out on several of our mission trips. Then we donated for a clean water well in Mozambique and then to Heifer International to buy livestock for villages in Africa. I like the Maschio tiller. I'm on my third tiller on my 1983 John Deere 650 tractor. I've had the 550 John Deere, the RT1150 Frontier made by Maschio, and just bought a new four foot RK Rural King made by King Kutter this year. I till gardens down south in Tennessee and Alabama from everything from sandy loam to red concrete clay. Keep the videos coming. God bless!

  • @turdferguson5300

    This is really worth it. I have a hand tiller that I use after the rows are planted but it doesn't do as well as the tiller box on the tractor. Mine is a 52" Woods tiller that turns the dirt to powder, and you're right I don't need a 60". I have to put an electric fence around the garden after it comes up or I would use the tractor all the time.

  • @jamesdiehl8690

    Front tine walk behinds are the roughest to use. The rear tined walk behind tillers like Troy built work pretty easy. You can walk beside them using one hand to till.

    I pull a slip-clutch T5-56" Phoenix tiller (Sicma of Italy) with my 1025R (set to 7" depth). It is the largest I would consider. A thing of beauty and a great joy and time/labor saver after years (25?) with my trusty 6.5 Hp Troy Bilt Horse walk-behind tiller (identical to the one shown except I had a B&S 6.5 Hp swapped in 8 years ago). I do like that the wheel tracks are tilled up after a pass.

    Good job Tim. My father was involved in the Lions Club. He raised about 400 pumpkins one year for a fund raiser. He loved working in his garden. Your neighbors are so lucky. Those kids was very lucky too. The lessons they learn in raising, harvesting, and selling to the general public is so valuable. We did just that at any early age too. We picked many a bushel of grey crowder beans and sold them to our local grocery store.

      @@popefamily3629 Probably depends which side of the tiller you're standing. Forward means the rotor moves the same way as the wheels - it pushes you forward. Reverse means that it's dragging against the tractor, and dragging in and down.

      This just convinces me I need turf tires. I swear I was on the edge of rolling my 755 with r1’s today pulling into an un tilled garden. Root clump on the left front, furrow between rows on my right rear. There wasn’t room to come in square. The r1s sank into the furrow. It took a few minutes of dragging the loader and tiller to get situated. After that row I could keep my left tires in tilled soil and the rights high enough on the old mound to be level and leave nice soil behind. For the final pass I had to shovel off the left edge

    17:30 mold board plows go way deeper bringing up more of the underlying clay and sand that was the original landscape before all the biodegraded plant and animal matter became over the top of it. i noticed this watching my grand parents plow their fields when i was little. you can see where the layer of mix is just by digging a shallow hole with a shovel 2 feet down. you will immediately see the soil color and texture change going from 4"-8" to 12" to 14-16" just by tilling implement used.

    small gravel rocks are actually good for gardens. there's alot of minerals trapped in them that get released with each tilling, plus they help keep the soil loose and make the dead fall break up better after harvest season. annoying to hear, more annoying to the paint damage and cowling damage they do, but i'll take them over mature tree roots every day of the week, i hate getting stuck and sucked down to china when one wraps around a tine and then the shaft.
    rocks come out easy, roots have to be unwound and or cut apart.

      Tilling is the least profitable thing we do for customers. They often think it should be free.
      Also, I don’t recommend quoting by the hour.

    I don’t mean to sound too picky, but I suggest you adjust the left-to-right level of the tiller. That way, you would avoid the ridges at every 48 inches.

      Maybe. …but it doesn’t really work that way. The gearbox end of the tiller always leaves a furrow.

      I have run a 5ft tiller on our 2305 for many years now. The 3 pt lifts it fine, but I definitely need the loader on the front (don't have the suitcase weights). The 2305 handles it fine unless we get into wet clay, then it works it. It was originally purchased for a Kioti ck25, so I already had it, otherwise I would have gotten a 4ft tiller.

    Tim you said you thought 48” was all you wanted. Is that because of the tractor weight or the HP. I have a 3025e and was thinking about a 60” to keep the wheel tracks clean. May have to get an offset model or upgrade tractor HP.

    I see you get a “hump” where put the tiller down to start a pass and a “divet” where you pull up the tiller at the end of a pass like I do. This is particularly problematic for me as I have fence on two sides of the garden so can’t alternate directions. Any way or technique to minimize this?

    • @crpth1
      @crpth1 Před 2 lety

      If you can't fine tune it to your liking, by making minute adjustments on the 3p hitch. Don't worry, pull out a rake, either tractor or handheld and I'm pretty sure in a very short time it will be solved! ;-)

    So I have really infertile soil, I live on the praire, a farmers trap back in the pioneer days. Its Neglected, full of weeds, and over grazed dry sandy clay loam. If you use a plow and mix in manure, will the tiller come in handy or will I be stuck with plowing until it's fertile soil?

    • @crpth1
      @crpth1 Před 2 lety

      "...plowing until it's fertile soil?" For goodness sake, DO NO PLOW OR TILL your soil! FYI plowing/tilling are the tools to build... DESERTS!! It's that simple!
      We have thousands of years of PROOF, all over the planet. Right in front of our eyes! The obvious slap us right on the face and no one seems to notice!!
      It's amazing how dummy we can be! Geez!
      Even on this video they mention what WE ALL KNOW. The lands that were left alone, were more productive than the ones tilled to death! So, how come this is a surprise? How can it be a surprise? Certainly it's not.
      We all know that lands ALL over the planet, inclusive where you are. Were more fertile before the "farmers" destroyed it! Those prairies included! Remember it passed from ever fertile land. That sustained literally millions of bison's and other fauna and flora. To totally depleted land (farmers) after just some years! Following into the "dust bowl"... You get the rather evident picture. ;-)
      Learn about the ECO (economical & ecological) simplicity of NO till, chop & drop, regenerative farming, etc. I just wrote two, of so many expressions that can literally change your life. And save you a ton of money, while at it, on "tilling" the soil to death!
      That is NOT a "farmers trap" if such, it would be a trap for ignorants!
      "Chop and drop" even what you call "weeds"! Keep a living root on the soil at all times! Mulch as much as you can! The results over the years are simply AMAZING!
      In case of doubts: On a small plot make a simple experiment. Replace the plow/tiller, by a simple lawn mower... Chop it and drop it, in place. The so called weeds (soil builders). Repeat when needed. Add seeds of your preference. In just a couple of years the results are damn obvious! ;-)
      Edit: Regarding the so precious water. Remember this at all times. The 3 S's !
      - Slow, sink, spread. ;-)
      Cheers

    That tiller went through the dirt like me with a pint of ice cream. I'm not missing the days of shoveling out dirt to screen it and putting the rocks in the driveway. It'd have been neat to watch the 1025 with a disc harrow, but at the same time I can see why you mentioned Johnny 5. Could a rock bucket be good for taking out the rocks found in gardens when tilling, if they have one for subcompact tractors?
