Time to Harvest Some Cotton

[@willmullis5245]

Your telling me this guy only has 41k subs and 90 something views ????? This channel is awsome seeing all the peanuts and cotton in Texas I live in Georgia so it’s cool seeing all the stuff we grow way bigger there in Texas thank you for doing what you do!

[@conleybanman]

Thank you. Your support means a lot

@ yes sir your welcome

Awesome cotton harvest Conley, you didn't get what you wanted but you got enough to make some money to pay bills and keep going and plant the next crops. Congratulations !

Great view of Guadalupe Peak and El Capitan @ 12:09. I wait all year for you to pick these fields so I can see the mountains in the park! I just drove past the National Park on my way from Carlsbad to Van Horn. I had driven from Pecos to Carlsbad 2 weeks earlier and I wanted to see some mountains this time. I've got some photos of the mountains reflected in a full playa from several years ago. Do you get your water from the same aquifer as Dell City? I don't know how far south it extends from Dell City. I could see the Cornudos when you were facing west and it's cool that you could see the recharge area for your water.

I do believe it is the same aquifer. The view makes working out here worth it

Love watching all of your vids. Great work. Cheers from South Australia

Brother, I want to work with you in your farm one day

[@essexfarmer9610]

I know nothing about cotton Conley, but that looks visibly pretty thick cotton on the plant compared to other videos elsewhere. Its amazing what good management and irrigation can do in a desert. What sort of % loss do you think you are getting with cotton left in the boll on the plant? Because the white cotton stands out on the brown plant, its probably less than it looks.

[@conleybanman]

Yea that’s what everyone says. Everyone is always concerned about all the cotton we’re leaving behind but it less than 1%. It’s about the same amount of loss as you’d see behind a corn combine. Price wise it’s not worth going over a second time plus the cotton left behind is usually shorter fibers and they pay a lot less for that

[@RahulGojiyaVlogs]

How many acres do you have?

[@WyattWilson-e7m]

Do y’all use a loader or bale sphere to pick up the bales

[@conleybanman]

A loader with specific cotton bale forks

[@wildedog3967]

Sounds like harvest 2024 is in the home stretch .

[@victorvillasana9474]

Pretty cool stuff where is this at ??

[@conleybanman]

West Texas

Thanks for the video. Can the 8 row be swapped out for a 12 row folding head-?

[@conleybanman]

It can but doesn’t suite our operation very well

[@John-nc4bl]

@@conleybanman Why not-?

[@conleybanman]

It matches up with our 16 row planters

[@John-nc4bl]

@@conleybanman Ok. Thanks for your reply and the best to you.

How many bales do you get from one roll of wrap?

[@conleybanman]

24 in one roll

[@randyrussell9755]

How do you get the cotton strippers out to the West of Guadalupe Peak from where you live?

[@conleybanman]

We haul the header with our implement trailer and the stripper with our semi and lowboy

[@t_r_b8842]

We tie our remote to the guard rail on the catwalk so don’t have to climb done to unfold and such. Some good looking cotton. The past 2 years we’ve been a bale or less on all of ours because of lack of rain.

[@conleybanman]

Yea I tried that but then found myself using it down there more often then on the catwalk
