farm update

i am here to talk about farming and all that goes with it.

[@tbix1963]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. No bricks needed.

I think a podcast would be a good idea. I know I would enjoy listening to it.

Last time I was on my dads farm in Victoria Australia in 2002 he used a corn seed with a coating on it that’s made to make the birds vomit when they eat them after they were planted. Since those seeds cost more my dad mixed those corn seeds with non coated seeds. My dad was a Pioneer seed corn dealer in Victoria Australia. My dad passed last January.

Great info Wes enjoy the videos on both channels. Cheers

What you describe as mice damage sounds a lot like sandhill cranes as well. They walk down the rows and pick the seed right out of the ground. They'll do it up to the V3 stage when there is still a kernel present. I have to use a repellent which seems to work. They pick at it a little and then move on.

Not sure where you are but I'm starting to wonder when they open a season on them.

I saw alot of corn planted into cover crop that looked like crap in PA in early stages when no rain situation once we got rain corn took off and looked great if there was no cover crop I don't think corn would not have done much. I think it takes guts and patience. Congratulations on fine crops you have grown. Not a farmer just a observation.

Mustard plant residue worked in with a VT will also biofumigate for nematodes.

Thanks Wes, enjoyed the video. 👍😊

Love to hear your thoughts. Keep it up

[@willemwieringa14]

I really like your thoughts on how the farming in your region works. I have a question about spraying. How does killing plans work in comparison to fungicides and insecticides. Becouse you seem not to mind using herbicides. Im sorry if it seems rude to ask this question. I really like your content and im learning a lot from your experience. Greetings from the Netherlands! Keep up the good work!

I'm all for the podcast, start with the Eastern Shore Farmer.

Good talk thanks for the video

[@MustangsTrainsMowers]

In one of the recent videos you talked about food sensitivities and headaches, my question is are you having neck pain or even extreme neck pain? If so I would highly suspect the Lyme disease you had I believe around 2015 has returned. If you had a general practitioner Doctor test you for Lyme the tests that they typically use are about 50% accurate. There are multiple Lyme forums on Facebook. I believe that Igenix is one lab that people trust more. My last Lyme test was with my blood overnighted to Germany for a new type of test and yes it was positive. I’ve now had Lyme disease about 40 years.

Do you have enough grain carts to run both combines when it’s harvest time?

[@craighinshaw2437]

Dont buy bugs in jug.,,, just make it yourself with compost tea.. you can add it in farrow .or leaf spray

[@wolfeislandexcavating5426]

Thumbs up

[@MustangsTrainsMowers]

With today’s technology I don’t think it would be hard to do a group video about farming just from where you live. I’ve seen plenty of other channels do that. You Wesley and MillennialFarmer, Maple Grove Farms or others.
