How To Cut Hay On A Small Farm - Hesston 6450 Swather | Ride Along

[@anthonyrschmitz5182]

I spent many summers running the same windrower but cabless. My grandpa eventually took a cab from a IH 715 combine and custom fit it to the windrower for me to keep the dust off.

That's a good idea. Bet it was nice to not be so dusty!

When my wife's family used to do that, she would grab some of the alfalfa sprouts to eat with her salads.😷😅

🤣 Might as well I guess?! Was it good?

[@EdsAttentionToDetail]

@@RusticSoDakFarm, she kept doing it so I guess it was ok!

Hey just curious how good does the hay dry without using a crimper? I am looking at a Heston with a Draper head just like that but don’t know if the hay will dry fast enough

We are very dry here. Works decent for first and second cutting, but it won't for third.
