Trying To Sneak In A Little More Chisel Plowing

[@rustyrelicsfarm2406]

I thought of an idea for a solution for your sqadron hitch situation. Your parts planter for the 4 row planter. You could probably modify the frame to a sguadron hitch in the field. I would weld on 3 hitches. The middle one to be the primary road hitch and also build a secondary hitch behind one drill. Then use the outer 2 hitches for the field. Plus it would be easy to rig up the hydraulic hoses with that type of setup.

Always nice to sneak in a few acres of tillage. I hauled gravel to one of the big dairies just south of Hartford a few weeks ago and that area always gets the weather.

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

Yea you couldn’t pay me to live up there.

[@michaelsheeder148]

Ethan, as they say make hay the sun shines. At least you got some of it done. Thanks Michael

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

Yep

[@BeckyMcDermott]

I have never heard anybody complain about building a shed to big. lol. Jeff.

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

Probably never will.

[@briangrammer898]

❤❤VIDEO ❤❤ very informative ❤❤

[@jasonclark3127]

I think if you chisel in the fall will open the ground up to take more water in. Where ground not worked up will get packed after a good rain and run off not soak in.

[@TheMuskokaman]

Won't be tillage time around here till April now. Got 5 feet of snow last weekend & expecting 2 more this weekend. Done more hours in the tractor with a blower on the back in the last week than I'd do in it in Haying season! LOL Pays better too.

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

We are going to be back up into the 50s by this coming week.

[@stevesjeep3383]

Just what I need to unwind after work: a purring cat.

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

They do have their own sound.

[@aaronkline9102]

Nice on the snow i see guys down here in Ohio that haul milk to superior in canton for mlt out of Michigan for mmpa farms there trucks were frozen snow on them today Thursday the 5th

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

All the storms went clean around us.

[@brettlamont4965]

Not going to lie, i miss the days when you mouldboard plowed more. But i can go back and watch those. Congrats on growing your acres for 2025.

[@rustyrelicsfarm2406]

Maybe one day when this channels income can help significantly support the farm so he can go full time.

[@hacc220able]

Thanks for sharing.

[@stephenheyes4324]

Good to see you got more tillage done every little helps

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

Yep

[@lawrencekiel-sr2772]

Starlings are murmurating the past week. They cover a 5-acre field by my house, and it's a solid wall when the take off. Studies show that when birds have a leader, they use 25% less energy. Thought I'd throw that out there.

[@dmartens6267]

Wouldn't the frost take care of compaction?

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

No

[@craignepp524]

You may have seen but machinery pete had a short vid of retirement sale in mt pulaski IL. Had a couple nice White's that would look pretty cool in your shed.

[@ronlarson2561]

Any tillage in the fall is better than tillage in the spring

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

Until you can’t pull the plow at depth because you are driving on grease and the tires are just spinning. Then you’re just wasting fuel.

[@Admiralprise]

If i can find one of these tractors in my area its one of top 5 im considering for chisel plow

[@bay9876]

Harrowing the field after the rain might get rid of those dirt clumps. The smell of fresh turned soil is a farmers delight. If you had chickens they would have a field day searching for earth worms and bugs.

[@donkeylong7707]

Should paint the ol 'girl. Grey body with black n red pinstripes w/ white border edge trim.

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

No. There was never a red stripe 4-150 and there isn’t supposed to be any white on it at all…

[@mathiggins4264]

Well, you had to try buddy I just got done ripping all my last weekend your buddy from Nebraska

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

Wish I could pull that off here.

[@57fitter]

I just watched a video tonight, Dec 21st, a new one, and you were asking if someone could go look at a Kinze grain cart for you, and I see one in the barn. What's up with that?

[@tomthompson489]

I thought you called somebody a dipstick. But you were checking the oil in your tractor. Ha ha ha ha.

[@tomthompson489]

You know, I watched you around three years. I forgot where did you put all that equipment before you built the building? That would be a good story. Catch you later.😊

[@Ixlthim74]

He rented that barn from someone then that owner sold the farm to someone in Chicago, I think. And a lot of his equipment sat outside also.

[@vincegross7617]

The Old white Gettner done ,how many acres you farming 🤠🇺🇸

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

All of them.

[@JohnJufer]

Looking good would be great if you can push the field edge over to the fence row

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

If they would sign a 5 year lease it would be worth the effort to clean it but not for one year at a time.

[@koreymartinson7238]

Ground is way too hard here already!

[@dennislamers986]

Well you know you land & it's limits. No sense of making more work later on.

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

Yep

[@roadhogg1418]

Ground too stiff for NH3 here Farm Boy

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

I don’t think we’ve had any frost yet even with the cold temps.

[@danmcgowan8563]

You don't know if you don't try. But, No sense in mudding it in.

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

Just a waste of diesel at that point.

[@jamesmorrison1884]

I would have finished it fall dont matter field has time to sit

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

So you drag a plow through mud with the tractor spinning its wheels from one end of the field to the other? Yes, it very much does matter.

[@jamesmorrison1884]

So conditions were different than what you showed on video

[@Oliver66FarmBoy]

I said I quit because it was like driving on a skating rink. Figured it was self explanatory.

[@jamesmorrison1884]

It dont matter have a good day.
