I have a box drill with a back on mover. What a pain in the butt. One of these days I’m gonna get one with factory transport built in. Doubt I’ll make the leap to air for a while yet.
Definitely pulling a lever and lifting the wings is easy but the back on transport was light years ahead of the other mover we had. You clipped it on to the back of the drill. Then had to back up forcing the drill up in the air. Then run out and hook chains up before it fell down lol. And the last box drill dad had with an on board transport wasn't much different then the back on one. You still had to unhook one hitch. Drive around and hook on the otherside.
@@jeremycherny2041 my old drill had factory transports, way prefer it to this back on bs. But it was so wore out, it was time to move on. I’m by myself moving, it’s not fun loading that thing on my own. Big thing is getting it straight enough with the transport that it all falls into the pipe holders at the same time. Doesn’t always happen on the first or third try. 🙄
We are on day 2 of seeding now! I was out doing vertical tillage where the manure spreaders packed down the ground, first time in many many years that pro till has moved , did a beautiful job tho
I was thinking that the other day, we used to have a divider in tandem bigger side was for fertilizer. Now we haul seed out with the single axel abd fertilizer out with front super b trailer
All seeds have a minimum temperature that the soil must reach before they will begin to germinate. Most seeds will not germinate in soil that is below 8 degrees. And they germinate much better and faster if the soil is at least 10-12 degrees. ((there Celsius degrees here) 11C=52F
@@millionairefarmer. neighbours are going . I’m still calving. I only got 600 acres to seed. Probably not until end of May after cows go out to pasture. If we can get grass growing.
I was told to take your soil temp properly, do it at 6 am. Take it at noon and take it at 6 pm and do your average. It was plus 2 here on the avarage a day ago.
@@millionairefarmer. 2 large farms are going. One is sitting, says its too cold. One is sitting and said it was too wet. I don't think any little guys have gone yet in our immediate area. 🤷♂️.

@@chadtosh6831 find a 25ft air drill and pull it with the Kubota. Then you'll be styling
@@jeremycherny2041 damn doubtful. Lol. Would like some zero till box drills ideally though. Simpler mechanically for my non mechanical mind.

The soil is turning up pretty nice up here as well
The days of box drills. The old boys still struggle with 12 inch spacing. Fertilizer was a nightmare back then.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Interesting
A lot easier being closer to USA border to remember the section numbers.
I suppose, are you seeding yet

they sell little 'ear muffs' for your phone mic. :)
There is alot of background noise in the cab no questions about that

I’m sure there’s all sorts of ways things.

All depends on your soil were we live if it’s to wet and you seed it’s not good depending on what kind of drill your running like going to Vegas lol
