Something Unusual Is Stuck In Our Abbey Sprayer || The Fight Against Docks Begins

In this video we are getting our Abbey Sprayer out for the first time this year as we try to hit back at the dock weeds that have thrived this year. We also have our Grasshopper plate meter out as we plan out our autumn grass rotation.
Hope you enjoy and thanks for watching

I am delighted to hear your mother is home from the hospital. Michael, Dublin.

[@dieselbushcraft1299]

Aww bless ya mum, another complete stranger wishing her well. Love watching your videos and find your work fascinating, sadly im too old to change career so I’ll just watch your videos. Im sure it will have a downside too but being out in the fresh air must be great.

[@randybutler4772]

She doesn’t need to understand KZbin, she only needs to know we care. Hope she continues to improve! Thank you for sharing. 🇺🇸🇮🇪🐄

[@FlyingFergyMan]

Sunday is not Sunday without a super I farm we farm video. Well done Adrian. Glad to hear your mum is feeling better.

[@MayorofDipshittery-lq7if]

That wet spot would be an ideal job for your digger, make a little pond, hollow for future watering.

[@Mark-lz8yv]

U didn't try any spray fertiliser on ground yet

[@richardleigh1762]

I lok forward to watching your vids every Sunday Adrian , keep um rolling .

[@jamesrobinson9381]

Hope your Mum continues to Improve Adrian, they are special and you only have one

[@everestyeti]

Glad Mums home and that she's seen the messages, hopefully they'll give her recovery a bit of a boost. Think your quite right to put the sprayer to bed properly over winter, its just like carrying out regular maintenance on your other equipment, if you dont do it then it becomes costly to repair.

[@Pauline-hw7bx]

Glad your Mum is home, your Dad must have missed her so. How does the sprayer computer know where not to spray for the rabbit tracks? 🤣

[@user-yf1fp5df9c]

Hi Adriañ , im happy your mum is home with her family where she is happiest to be , take care all , rgds Pat

[@Dan_8712]

When in ag college, 4 different groups of us measured the same field with a grass hopper. All 4 group got a different result. Results varied by up to 300kg DM. After 3 years farming, I've learned my eyes are by far the most accurate measure.

[@kieranosullivan02]

that's it exactly, looks like you could try too hard or not enough with it but if you cut squares are learned by eye from it you'd have a better result

[@IFarmWeFarm]

In fairness, always trust your eyes above anything else 👍

[@Dermo37]

I can't wait for Sunday morning have a sleep on. Get up have a bit of breakfast and wait till ur video comes on. The missus does think I'm gone mad waiting to see farming video. The live stream was brilliant 👍

[@shirleysousa1133]

I love watching all your videos. So happy your mom is home

[@johnlydon533]

Great video Adrian. Great that your mom is home and in better health. Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼.

[@cwh050]

Fun fact: dockweed is also sometimes known as Monk‘s Rhubarb (Mönchsrhabarber) in German.

[@PACEZY]

Your doing the right thing, loosening all off on the sprayer, I used to put the spade through the root in the day i was under instructions, the boys did it for Ireland, the hat suits you, it's good your mother is home.

[@robscarlett321]

Lovely your mother is home, makes all the difference. Hope she is feeling better soon.

I HOPE YOUR MUM GETS BETTER ADRIAN JUST ENJOYED YOUR VIDEO

[@markwalsh5650]

Glad to hear your mother is home hope she is doing well

[@radharcanna]

Whenever I told my mother about all the well wishers on Facebook she would ask if they all ‘phoned in’! Hope your mother’s feeling better.

[@ruadhscottygirl2480]

I watch other KZbinr farm videos and a few of them frankly are appalling at keeping equipment clean and maintenanced. They end up chasing repairs all year. Glad to see you look after yours in a timely manner.

Cracking video as always. Really enjoyed the livestream the other night. Three gentlemen. Keep up the good work Adrian

[@wulliewhyte544]

Good to hear your mum is home from hospital best wishes. Have to get the 50B fixed and get that wet hole drained or put in a bore hole for free water.

[@patmurphy7539]

Hope your folks are doing ok and hope are recovering well,love another up date on 50b,hard to beat fixing older gear yourself

Welcome home to your Mum! All the best for a quick recovery. From Wisconsin 🐄 🧀

[@sandymcghee3328]

Another great video Adrian good to hear your mum is back home 👍👍👍

[@bobuncle8704]

By tearing your sprayer down, it makes sure you go over every bit of it before using it again. I’ve only met one KZbinr, and it was kind of bizarre. They walked out of the house to meet me, and it was like running into a long lost friend.

[@haggielady]

Tell your Momma "Hello from Florida and I hope you feel better". Watched the three of you the other night, gave me a good laugh. Thank you.

[@dellhell8842]

Great video again. Best wishes to your mum.

[@radharcanna]

Adrian, the farm and the surrounding countryside are so beautiful. I know the job has its many pressures but it must feel like heaven on days like that. You can’t beat country living, something I hope to return to in the next few years.

[@myfarmingjourney1]

Hi Adrian. Nice video. Just lost 3 knives on my krone mower while watching your video and mowing silage at the same time 😅 I have tha same weed problem in my pastures, just havent had time to deal with them yet, not much of them in silage fields, just mostly pastures. I hope your mom gets well soon See you on next one. Cant wait to see your newest Massys next video.

[@weddison]

Hope. You enjoy your time with these guys I watch all three yous brilliant bunch of guys

[@hughcarrigan7824]

Great to see you.having the craic with the lads the other night! Another of farmers around here use.antifreeze in expensive sprayers and I have never heard of any issue's

[@annhydeArtist]

Good wishes to your mum, hope she is doing well.

[@oldschoolfarmer7010]

Best wishes to you Mum, glad to hear she's improving. Good luck with the dock problem. I sprayed some with dockstar in the spring, thought they'd died but they're all back already ☹️

[@barryaherne2342]

Hi Adrian I've watched your videos a long time now, your set up is unreal and you are a farmer with loads of influence any chance you would do a video on farm safety around animals, as im sure you've heard about the incident in the mart in Galway, unfortunately I was there when it happened within touching distance of the incident, savag traumatic, i guess we forget that farming is dangerous and I just want to get the message out there for everyone to be safe and your the man yo do it, if that would be ok

[@farmerslife2612]

That's great work on KZbin

[@PeggyStentzCasey]

I didn't realize your Mom had been ill. I hope she has a complete recovery!

[@davidparr2650]

Love the videos I've been a subscriber for a time now I'm amazed you have time to put videos out. I wish you and your family all the best. Thanks so much.

[@mochara11]

I used to work in a plant hire shop and we used to flush out and store the airless paint sprayers with a corrosion inhibitor for winter storage. The spray units have much the same internals with both metal/plastic and rubber components. "Titan" was the brand of corrosion inhibitor/flush we used, might be worth a look to preserve your equipment.

[@kevingovier5090]

Good morning Adrian, another interesting video, hopefully abbey manufactures will see your comments and rectify straight away 👍 I have seen You, Farmer P, funky Farmer having a chat( perfect) hopefully one day we will see Farmer Phil, Father Phil, Jerry 6420 and Tom & Ginge and you three all together! You are all legends showing us your working and family life’s , helped keep us sane through covid shut down 🍻 hope all goes well for your mum🍻As for verdict on the spraying, well impressed with results 👍

[@brendanspain8579]

Can I add Crawford (Crawfords farm) Cammy (the sheep game) to that gathering if I may! Christmas special some buzz hey!

[@Mr11090]

Hi Adrian if you turn down the oil flow to the tank it won’t take as much power from the tractor. Great to hear that you’re mom is back home. We wish her all the best ❤

[@IFarmWeFarm]

Yes I did try that but the maserator turned to slow and the pipe flow wasn’t even 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@stephenkelly2067]

Or changed the massey

[@Mr11090]

Maybe you turned it down too much

[@davidyoung4830]

Adrian glad your mum back home well again. Ya regards the masarator , it could be just the measure of oil flow affecting the process when operating the Tanker. My own experience I got the oil flow measured by my mechanic for the constant pumping for the operating of the masatator. Set up pipes correctly to the correct spools and I have no trouble, touch wood,!!! I operating a Johndeere6210 90 hp pulling 2000gl. Perfect on flat ground, limited hp does affect me on the hills however, just a bit of planning when spreading. Yes I plan for extra hp in the future, could be a while!!!!!😂. Now the Johndeere has 110lt per min flow, the Massey could be different. That Massey should have no issues especially been 150hp

[@kieranosullivan02]

@@davidyoung4830 john deere 6210, 2000 gallon tank and dribble bar? some outfit there for 90hp. Have you much hills? Would want to be focused anyway for sure

[@joepowdely]

Great video Adrian hope you are keeping a look out for a seven legged spider that wet spot looks like a good project for the 50B wishing your mum and dad the best

[@stephenkelly2067]

Think dribble bar great on grazing but leaves alot more crust for silage

[@IFarmWeFarm]

That’s true, have to make sure the field isn’t raked to close to the ground. Never had an issue with that yet though 🤞

[@williamwood816]

Hope your mother gets well soon

[@patrickgmurphy4204]

Well adrian

Nice one Adrian I feel like I know you Best wishes to your mam, tell her to take it easy and with the help of God Almighty she will be good as ever very soon

[@thomasdelaney5003]

Some of the docks in your video were gone past the correct growth stage for spraying, i.e too strong. Irrespective of the herbicide you use the level of control will be less than ideal. Great video and GPS a great tool.

[@jimmy.....9446]

Great video.Delighted to hear that your mum is on the mend.I hope you have the Guinness ready for the two lads😂

[@salmonhunter7414]

RV anti freeze works good and it is ok for pumps. But it is not free so 30 min twice a year is not to bad and you need to check it anyway.

[@lindaarmstrongjackman9788]

[@Gearoid35]

Good video Adrian them dock won't be back for a while regards to your mother

[@thomasbrophy4123]

Adrian would a engine tune for the Massey be something that might help your issue with the dribble bar? Be pretty cool thing to see done as well.

[@tommyturnip9824]

Use doxstar at half rate, 6 weeks apart. Half rate will wipeout whatever is there on the day, and the second half 6 weeks later will get what was too small or not emerged on day one.

[@Johnmcreedon]

Hi Adrian. If you cut down the oil flow to the macerator it will help massively. The only other way to fix it is changing the tractor to something green. Only joking buy a new holland 😂 😂

[@welllads]

Well

[@brianlarkin4990]

Here’s hoping the dogs op goes ok.

[@stefanovepi]

I am at the 5:40 point on the video and spotted the small cabin. Is there any work planned for it any time soon?

[@IFarmWeFarm]

There will be work done next year, have possible one video left on it before Christmas. Just going through the design and planning phases first. It will be a slow build as we need to make investments into a machinery shed at home firstly but bit by bit we’ll get there.

Hi how are you

[@tdolan500]

23:55 that can be a bit of a pitfall of being on the internet and making content for an engaged audience. It’s called a parasocial relationship, it’s actually quite an interesting subject. There’s potential for negative effects like attachment issues, bias in opinion and it can sometimes lead to a negative interaction if you meet someone. There’s also positive attributes like increased belonging to a group, it can satisfy needs for socialising for isolated people and can build stronger personal connections with other people who have the same interests.

[@kieranmcgroary5426]

Well Adrian, how u keeping soon be winter time a Well that the way it goes, good kill on ur docks great farm, with out a doubt great land, can l ask u wat is the best way to get rid of green rushs, thanks, great video , chat soon, kieran from Laghey donegal town

[@ainemarkdonnellan8149]

You might need to adjust the flow rate in your hydraulics to the macerator as the flow rate might be too fast and the macerator doesn't need too much flow to work

[@robertdonnelly385]

would u put a few more ponies in the massey adrian to run the mascerator and still move?

[@garethsinnamon4401]

Hello, what do you give cattle with scour that has lost it's appetite?Any help would be great

[@IFarmWeFarm]

It’s probably dehydrated Gareth, comes hand in hand with scours, it all depends on age and whether it’s outside or inside. Take a stool sample and have it tested. Vets have a scour rehydration mix ( pink in colour ) which is great.

[@Paul-xn1rt]

What is the sat nav that you are using ??

[@ranger553]

Not enough leaf cover on the docks. No spray will be fully efficient.

[@paulthompson8467]

Good video the abbey sprayer looks better made than our wee hardi especially the booms on the hardi are crap very light metal and if they're not cracking you can sit and watch the paint peel off and rust would never buy another one 🙁

[@IFarmWeFarm]

I had a hardi sprayer before this, bought it new and owned it for about 5 years. Just couldn’t keep the booms from severely rusting despite spraying oil / diesel on them and storing it inside. It was a good sprayer otherwise
