Spraying the Hay in 2020 and Why I’m a Honda Guy!

[@trailcamerasinnewengland0112]

Definitely do a video on repairing the four wheeler, that way if others of us have the same issues we’ll know how to fix it.🤠

That is craziest thing I've heard, the mosquitoes are thick in January, we say that in June/July only

Glad you got the hay sprayed. I would like to see you fix the 4 wheeler.

I will 2nd UR comment!

A video in which you troubleshoot and repair the quad would be very interesting. Thanks!

Morning 🌹 🌹 Tyler Great job u always come through. Your oil light was flashing. Am happy you finish. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your day stay blessed.

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks Felicca!

[@pughviewfarms4622]

This time last year we all were admiring your green hayfields. I think the side by side are definitely alot more comfortable.

[@PaullaWells]

Personally I really enjoy every video you make. That said, I highly recommend you do the repair video. Be sure to hashtag it thoroughly. It would like be a big hit and you're so well spoken and clear in your explanations that I am certain anyone looking for video help for something like that will be super pleased with you. Food for thought.

[@cherylwilliams81]

Have a great weekend!💕

[@HillsideHighlands]

The hay looks like it’s coming in nicely! We try to buy hay from producers like you that take care to make quality product. Keep up the good work!

[@JoelHershberger]

Loved the video. Thanks for sharing. I would love to see you work on the 4 wheeler. Anything you do in the shop would be interesting to me.

Farming/ranching, everyday is a new adventure. U always learn from previous problem situations so U don't have a repeat performance. Lookin' forward 2 seeing U on the side by side spraying hay next January. Get'r done Tyler! 👍👏😊

[@whitechurchfarm]

I have always sprayed for broadleaf..my fertilizer spreader is doing something fairly new the past couple of years..he’s mixing Grazon NEXT in with the fert. This is getting real popular because of its spread coverage and accuracy. I’ll keep u updated on my success this spring.

[@dustinwainman8023]

[@jjcactusandsucculents-open2156]

Great video Tyler! Hope everything works out on getting your equipment fixed! Joyce in Midwest City, Oklahoma

[@brianpeterson510]

Interesting video Tyler. Mechanical issues are never fun but I am sure youll figure out a solution amd would be interested in the process, plus its all about content. Though not a advocate of any inputs, since mother nature figured it out years ago, enjoyed seeing the application. Liked the use of light weight vechical to apply. Gas savings and rutting reduction. Am sure there's a naural way to beat broadleaf and would be excited to join you in its solution thereby eliminating the need and more importantly time/money. Anyway thanks for sharing. Keep the good work brother.

[@jeangibson5680]

Great video again! You make them so interesting!

[@nadeenflynn9673]

Hayfield is looking great!

[@DennysCountryLife]

I love that sprayer setup! Something along those lines would be perfect for my smaller fields. Especially since my fields are always wet in the spring. Speaking of which.. it's not spring yet and you have really nice growth!! Our hay fields are in full on winter mode right now, and look nothing like that!

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Yeah those little sprayers are handy for sure! It’s going to warm up more this week it should really start taking off!

[@williamfultz6068]

Keep up the good job I enjoy watching your videos I learn something every time I watch I'm a wannabe farmer that's my dream passion I love animals

[@davidgay2679]

Enjoyed the video, I would like to see the repair on the 4 wheeler and I agree with you on a Honda, I've had several and they've never let me down, Honda and John Deere, can't beat em

[@eablau]

Of course a video on repairing the Kawasaki 4 wheeler is a good idea, so all can learn something

[@teamstucker624]

Great video 👍 Honda make a good ATV and used to make good ATC for us old folks and fixing them is usually no where near the cost of other brands. Ford's, New Holland, Honda's makes the ranch go smoothly Kawasaki is ok but not my favorite. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Tyler the plant at 1:08 in the middle is a Miner's lettuce it is a very good and tasty lettuce

[@johnkranias3458]

Not no more it ain't :-)

[@rawa5457]

Cześć Bolek i Lolek. Ha ha ha. :):):) Nice to meet you.:):):) Ta roślina przypomina babkę zwyczajną, ale raczej nią nie jest. Te małe chwasty to gwiazdnica (misiurszczyk), dobra na sałatkę, kury ją uwielbiają, delikatna i soczysta. Nie sądziłem, że w Kaliforni rosną w zbożu te same chwasty co u nas. Powiedz Tyler'owi żeby pryskał w kombinezonie ochronnym, mnie trochę głupio pouczać ranczera. Chciałbym jednak żeby te swoje filmy kręcił w zdrowiu jeszcze długie lata. Fajny Gość i miło się to ogląda. Rąsia!

Awesome. 5 828 miles away the same weeds grow in the crop. Is enough hay from this field for these cows for the winter, sir? God bless.

Pretty nice sprayer set up. Even though I've got a JD Gator side by side, I've also got a Honda Rancher that has been very reliable & handy to have around. Wouldn't mind seeing the fix on that charging system. Stay safe.

[@jonstevensmaplegrovefarms3754]

always thought a 6x6 utv with a gooseneck 300 gallon sprayer on some light tracks would be slick deal. never sprayed a hay field with 2-4-D, this is my first time growing grass hay so in alfalfa we always use "select or volunteer" to kill grasses. I have to kill crab grass in spring so it don't harm alfalfa. hoping by switching to grass hay mixes I no longer have to worry?!

Pull the sprayer with the 8N, you're right tho, side-by is the ticket

[@robertsimmons3556]

Good to see the process with growing your hay. Would have been nice with an aerial, it looked like you have little to no bare spots so you did good seeding. The equipment, its always something huh...Sure glad your dad was there to back you up. Do you usually calculate tons per acre or ?

Thanks Bob yeah the seeding was ok but I can still do better with it. Always room for improvement right?

[@sunsetheritage]

That first weed you picked and called it “velvety”, looks just like the weeds we have in MI and my husband calls it “velvet leaf”. I don’t know what the proper name is, but he calls it that for the obvious “velvet” feel to it.

[@hvlineman5227]

Awesome video. I spray some of my food plots with 24D every year. There’s is definitely an art in terms of application rates consistency when spraying with a pull behind sprayer and a wheeler. Check out Bestway sprayers bud. I bought one of their UTV mounted systems and mounted mine on a pallet and use my loader/pallet forks on my tractor to raise and lower it on my uneven terrain. If u send me an email I’d love to share some pics of my setup. ( no I do not work for Bestway lol)

[@farmertylerranch4399]

That’s sort of what I was thinking like a bed mounted deal that is removable. Show me what you got! [e-mail]

[@LVFFarmVlogs]

Is the sprayer yours? This is just my idea, but If it was mine, I would make it so it sits in the bed of the kubota, get ride of that gas engine, and use a 12 volt pump, or a hydraulic pump (to reduce weight). If that sprayer was made to sit in the bed, you'd have less wheels on the ground, running over less plants, especially on the turns.

[@farmertylerranch4399]

No it’s not mine but I’ve been wanting to do something like what you’re describing for awhile. 100 gallon tank on a skid with a pump that sits in the bed and a boom that mounts in the receiver hitch (or something). Then no trailer to fuss with, less wheels on the ground and less likely to get stuck!

[@194853DodgeTrucks]

I do all my ranchin' with a Honda Foreman 350 and Playin' with a Yamaha Gizzly 600......I feel your pain, all workin' ATV's have their bad days. I'm guessing its the stator......its always the friggn' stator...lol.

Hate to Spam you my friend. But do you have any experience with the hydrostatic motors they are using on lawn mowers and I know John Deere side by sides. Have 2 Kubota mowers down and 2 John Deere gators. Neither shop is helpful about changing them out/ interchange between brands etc or even repair. The standard line I get is, You’ll have to buy a new one. But I figure one motor bad the other/others can’t be far behind and at 2k plus a motor that’s a healthy investment in an older machine. Got one single axle drive gator and a tandem so 4 or 6 times 2k plus change hits me hard. Anyone chime in Please.
