Scraping Rock Bottom... Cotton Harvest #7 (10/23/24)

[@stevebiddle8912]

Glad to see you on the down hill side of cotton harvest. Have a blessed and prosperous Thanksgiving from Oklahoma.

[@JerryGreen-so8yg]

Glade to see your doing better

Maybe a hydraulic top link on the bale picker would keep the bale from dragging.kind of pick up the back of the bale to have more clearance.

[@griggsfarmsllc]

I’ve thought about adding one

[@winterhorse290]

@@griggsfarmsllc I put one on my MF253( l know, it’s a small tractor) and now I don’t know how I did without it.

Thanks. We usually get a significant portion of our subscribers from the harvest videos.

good video

Excellent video Matt, hoping you get the rest or at least most of the harvest in before the weather turns bad again. Lord a mercy but California is getting hit and I mean hard with that snow and all they're getting. I suspect it will raise the price on some of our pantry items before it's all said and done. Not sure if it will affect the vino production or not. Sad if so. Anyway, enjoyed the vid, keep up the good work. I find it highly enjoyable.

If you had one could you use a front loader to move bales?? Mrs KELLY how are your fingers after the mishap last year thanks!!???? Missing your assistant 😂😂 ABSOLUTELY!! Not a big talker😮😮😮. Thanks to all of ya.

[@griggsfarmsllc]

You would have to have a big front wheel drive tractor or a wheel loader to support the weight

[@gregcatlett1458]

@ Didn’t realize they weighed that much?? Thanks

[@griggsfarmsllc]

@@gregcatlett1458 little over 5000 lbs

I like learning about cotton. No cotton up here in the far, North. Canada 🇨🇦.

Try to shut the heater valve it will help the a/c those heater lines are under the buddy seat and kill the a/c

[@WilliamWebb-i4f]

My cp690 is set at 94 in and in dyno Gro cotton it can weigh 5,000 to 6,000 lbs

Good evening Griggs family, glad the cotton harvest is going good. Is John Deere the only company that builds cotton pickers? I hope y’all have a good Thanksgiving 🇺🇸🙏🏻

[@griggsfarmsllc]

Currently yes. I think Case IH is coming out with a new one though

[@Rcod2013]

​@griggsfarmsllc yeh mat. Patented technology. I've heard CNH are developing their own for when the patent runs out. I reckon CNH realised when JD released those pickers that the old type wouldn't sell enough to be worth while making any more. 😮

[@WilliamWebb-i4f]

There is a Chinese made picker out there now that looks like a John Deere painted red it’s only available overseas

[@Rcod2013]

Not here in Australia. Reckon JDitching to fight them in court. ​@@WilliamWebb-i4f

Where do you get all the chicken manure? Please explain in your next video as you’re talking, because I don’t read comments.

[@griggsfarmsllc]

I buy it from chicken houses in West TN
