Cotton Harvest 2023 near Beasley Texas

[@Bitcoin_Millionaire]

Whoever set that picker did a phenomenal job. She picking clean. No need to go back and scrap any leftovers (second picking,)

[@deejaymee3924]

I like your videos

[@ComradDave]

Picking cotton sure has changed since the 18th & 19th century

[@maximush9811]

Which one gets more $$$/acre, a clean picker or a dirty stripper?

[@Farmer_Gage7120]

[@Farmer_Gage7120]

Awesome Video mike......It is cool to see this because i have never been futher south than Ainsworth NE

[@SimonKL11]

Another great cotton harvest video😉👍 I could watch the module builder all day long😁👍

[@theburnhams2925]

Hi Mike! Another in a long string of "good 'uns" which we always enjoy! You consider this "old" technology (with the newer round balers now available) but sure beats hand picking and dragging bags by main! Which practices, btw are still being used on a few small-scale organic production. But, by all means, keep the videos coming~~~we'll watch whatever you post at this point........

[@ScottPykare]

Great video Mike. Appreciate your efforts.

[@stevenmclamb7851]

That was interesting. Cool stuff Mike!

[@marks_sparks1]

Great video once again Mike. Happy New Year to you & family.

[@0102starcar]

Really nice, Mike. For a few moments there, I thought I could actually smell it.

[@TammyThurmond]

The last deere picker i was around and drove was the 9970 never been around the 6 rows always was the 2 and 4 row deere pickers lol

[@RecStuff21]

Great video. I always learn something new watching your videos. Also…. I’m blaming you for this crappy no snow winter we’re having. Always the fault of the guy that bought the new sled. 👍🏻😂

[@farmhandmike]

I figured buying a new sled was going to make it a low snow winter. I'm really anxious to ride my new Catalyst.

[@Farmer_Gage7120]

You actuality Like Snow ??? you should have come here last year because we got almost 10 feet and this year we have over a foot

[@TammyThurmond]

All the 80s farming cotton was always 38 inch rows here in west tennessee im sure now they are some 36 inch row cotton that was back in the 80s with the old 4440s 4630s 4450s and the 9900 9910 9930s 2 rows and the 9940 and 9950 4 row and cotton trailers lol

[@JoaoPires-pd9ot]

👍✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

[@franciscosandiego3026]

I like Mike less videos on KZbin from the imperial county California 👍 2024🎉

[@richardmassey2699]

Out right mad.😉🙃🤨

[@clintmeyer8029]

👍👍

[@John-nc4bl]

Yow Mike, thanks for another excellent video. That basket type of cotton picker looks like it push, strip and blow another 6 rows making it a 12 rower for faster production, maybe even a 18 row machine. I like to think big. Whada you think-?

[@farmhandmike]

In theory yes but I'm sure there is a reason why they don't make them that big. Maybe the cotton would never blow that far through the tubes?

[@bobnistler]

😎😎

[@davidwrobliski1746]

Was that Bohacek's field? We farm in the Beasley and Rosenberg area.

[@Marqan]

Never noticed that the compactor container has no bottom, are all of them like that?

[@tooez90]

I wonder what would happen if the cylinder compressing the cotton blew a hose and sprayed the cotton with oil...would the cotton be discarded or could it be cleaned..thanks for the video Mike

[@farmhandmike]

Good Question but I'd guess the cotton would soak up the oil and be no good. I'm sure its happened before and maybe someone who had it happen will see this and comment.

[@TammyThurmond]

That must either be 36 or 38 inch cotton rows lol

[@piperdoug428]

Man if they ever retire the module system for cotton harvesting i'm sure i could repurpose one for making haylage or silage modules

[@robertsfarms3471]

I’ve seen a good bit of people use them for that. Seems to work great for them.

[@westernnorthcarolinacornfarmer]

How many inch row spacings are the rows

[@farmhandmike]

I believe these were 30's

[@johnhatt1219]

Farmhand Mike are saying John Deere is a basket case lol

[@farmhandmike]

Not exactly,

[@michaeljohnson-jh2eu]

What is that blower for on the front of the buggy?

[@farmhandmike]

Not sure and was wondering that myself. Of course I didn't notice it while I was filming but did when I was editing.

[@darrellm.9622]

He going to fast leaving lots of cotton
