How to plow and till a vegetable garden area that’s never been plowed | John Deere Tips Notebook

[@jasonbuben2708]

Now time for me to make stuff to put behind a small riding mower because I’m broke 😂

[@jimbob4456]

Reading the comments was hilarious.

[@Johnrider1234]

We use a jd 4052 r and a tiller. We have 10 acres of organic gardens. John deere should sponsor us. Joys with the boys homestead.

[@drglinski]

Plowing is best achieved with no coulter, a plow that isn't shined up, no wheel weights and muddy field conditions. This video is hilarious.

[@tylerbryan8875]

Nice job. Thanks John Deere :)

[@fightingbear8537]

Great video!

[@donniebargo964]

Friend apparently you've not done much plowing you start in the middle after you've made your first pass you turn the tractor around and drive over the dirt that you just turned over and you have to Farrell's this makes a crayon or a high spot in the middle for drainage it's called back Landing that is the correct way to play all to keep from having a low spot in the center or to one side of your garden

[@shivamaraj7055]

I am a farmer and that soil looks amazing

[@jeffkimble8857]

I hope you are joking. i would not dare try to plant in that cloudy mess. 🤣

[@supporterofeverythingyouli6255]

I would suggest you draw your top link in some.

[@halfpintunicorn]

Can you till in a square or do you have to stop the machine each time and start a new row

[@davidcardin3271]

You cannot turn you have to pick the plow up and continue to go all the way down to the end of the row

[@eddynelson6982]

Anyone know what is different between 1149 and 3049 tillers?

[@JohnDeere]

Thanks for your interest, Eddy! The RT1149 and RT3049 Rotary Tillers differ on minimum and maximum tractor horsepower, weight, type of side drive, the hitch compatibility category, maximum working depth, and the amount of blades per flange. You can learn more about the RT11 Series here: bit.ly/3DqXzgS and the RT30 Series here: bit.ly/3FvV7I7. Your local dealer would be a great resource in determining the attachment best suited to your needs. If needed, you can find your closest dealer at Deere.com/Dealer. We hope this helps!

@@JohnDeere Hello! Thanks for the video! Quite inspiring! For commercial maize/corn production on an unprepared acres of land, what are the best and affordable implements (plow-till seeding) you can recommend for average of 75hp tractor.

[@davidcardin3271]

You didn't have your plow set correctly the back shoe needs to be down and level horrible job

[@thepitpatrol]

Might want to get the pto shaft that is hanging down in the thumb nail hooked up.

[@MrJokkoma]

Yea it didn't looked to good.

[@jeffkimble8857]

i would hate to try and plant in that garden. It so full of clods it would be a pain to work with. That’s what happens when you work the land too wet. If you want to see what a good garden looks like I will show what I do with my 1025r.

[@paullyubezhanin6125]

nice will be very useful to people like your prouducts

[@badboy.7458]

When you work soil when it is wet. Your crop won't turn out very good.

[@hunterjacobs2178]

Nope

[@davidgreen7342]

Because it compacts itself a certain way?

[@hunterjacobs2178]

@@davidgreen7342 it makes clods of dirt that dont break apart easily

[@davidgreen7342]

@@hunterjacobs2178 ok thank you

[@patriotsfan1236]

Depens on dirt and gow much organic material os on it. But yes generally true. I can till 2 days after 2 inch rain storm and its dry enough and will till very fine.

[@Godisnotjesus1967]

Pretty level surface that one. No challenge! Never been planted or used before by current owner.....I suppose

[@thunderouspasta]

Do I need to plow on soft ground?

[@JohnDeere]

Thanks for asking. There are some great benefits of plowing your gardens. A great way to learn what your garden needs is by getting your soil tested. Soil testing will help you understand the nutrient content, composition (sand, clay, etc.), and pH level. Call your county extension office for advice about soil sampling and using a soil test kit. If you would like to learn more, we suggest looking through the "Gardening" section in our Tips Notebook to understand some of the best practices for growing crops. You can find those tips here: bit.ly/3J2M2b2. We hope this helps!

Hi Tom Elliott I am hoping that you can help me can you get different sizes/width rims for a 1025r

[@outlandish9233]

That plowing job looked terrible!

[@hunterjacobs2178]

To muddy

[@MrJokkoma]

@@hunterjacobs2178 I'd say to bad plow, if I'd come down to the soil being too muddy not one single farmer would be able to plow during autumn's in Europe.

[@stevesteve9876]

Never have gloves on taking off or putting on the P.T.O

[@loganyoutube4818]

or long baggy sleeves

[@MrJokkoma]

I don't know how to say this without beeing rude, but man that plow is an extremely bad piece of junk! Go see what Kverneland plows does and you'll see the difference.

[@levimccurley6284]

I have the 2 bottom 1002 plow, and you're right: it sucks. I wish I'd have spent my money on a Kverneland or similar now.

[@morrismonet3554]

30 x 50. LOL. A walk behind tiller is all you need

[@b.l.barfield2420]

Ever wander why the older John Deere tractors are so valuable? After you watch this video using or trying to use a new overseas made tractor with John Deere decals on it, you realize this video is made to sell equipment to people that don't know any better. Remember this : the BEAN COUNTERS destroyed the General Electric company, and it looks like they've moved to this company and started their work again. Plastic hood, no draft control, no wheel spacing's, and very over priced. I will stick to my 60 and 70's year John Deere tractors made in the USA. BTW, where will these new tractors be in 40 years? The answer- recycled!!

[@MrTgpargolf]

Thanks for the history lesson!

[@bekabeka71]

I don’t trust modern tractors especially Americans

[@Ridley369]

Yes, everything made outside the USA is poor quality. Of course.

[@MrMawnster]

You don't need to plow to garden loooooool

[@TlcBister]

Would have been a lot easier to spray it to desiccate it 10-14 days prior to tilling, sod would have broke up way better.

[@avidoutdoorstv8545]

True but the chemicals may still kill plants

[@TlcBister]

Avid Outdoors Tv Not if you use the proper product and follow direction. Makes it way easier on the tractor.

[@JamesTyreeII]

It would’ve been better to spread the amendment over the plowed field just prior to tilling . Overworking the soil leads to complete obliteration of the soil structure and mass murder of any and all soil micro and macro biota. The ideal thing is to no till plant directly into the sod.Using cardboard and newspaper and leaving it on the grass for a few weeks will kill it and then you can plant into the dirt underneath or you can use black plastic to solarized the grass and kill it that way. Do you want to leave the soil life and the soil structure intact by not plowing and inverting the soil and not tilling and not using toxic herbicides

[@DrLoverLover]

That makes no sense

[@homesteadforhardtimes9131]

No till Nazis at it again

[@plantguy902]

Wrong
