We Took A BIG RISK

[@johnredhd]

I just found your channel, and I'm enjoying it. Greetings from Davenport.

[@HartungFamilyFarms]

Thanks for watching John!

[@GaryPClark]

Talking about moisture... all crops have moisture, some from rain, some from groundwater, reservoirs, lakes and rivers. We are selling our water as well as the crop, so when it is used in other places, we contribute it to that new location.

[@gregrhodes8451]

Well Ron man's gotta do what a man's gotta do, right? My Dad usta say son, just run it an watch it. So fill it up an Ida done what y'all done. God bless.

[@dennisperschbacher3688]

Ron. Have a question about Harvestore grain bins. When I was younger they were the bins to have on your farm. Some had the American flag on them and some did not. My grandpa told us the story that the ones with the flag were paid off. Is that true?

[@delbennett4745]

As you have said Ron, farming is all about risk. How did you bean field do?

[@heatherkohlwey8379]

At least it's not at Pisa angle yet. Stay safe and God bless.

[@HartungFamilyFarms]

Very true… if it gets like that, we will run 😂

[@joshuabrown2543]

Like the others said, idle is low. Got to love Iowa weather.

[@r.scotthill3082]

You see side draw bins everywhere. Some of them on huge bins. People are always talking about pulling out of them until they stop flowing. I have never heard anybody talking about the bins sucking in til now. Is that because Harvestores aren't braced as well?

[@charleslynch7274]

Do what u gotta do crossing my fingers for ya that the silo doesn't tip over

[@wayneselner3523]

Advance timing 4 degrees and adjust dash pot on governor

[@danshadoin7661]

I'd say it lopes if you have a clogged injector, bad or dirty MAF sensor, or even a vacuum leak. Low idle by itself may not be the culprit.

[@russrecker5344]

We had a diesel tractor on the farm do that. Not sure if the same as a truck but it was govener or the spring if i remember right.

[@harveystephens6115]

Enjoyed

[@chrisburk5753]

I hauled a cone custom made out of east chicago IN. They might be able to help you out.

[@brianshell4111]

I have a gussiting system that I've made to repair that dent. I've installed it on 2 grain stores this year. They are 1/2 aluminum plate. Seriously would have no problem give you all a set. Mechanical engineer to another

[@MrChrisclark2129]

Holtz welding in delmar they do great work !

[@Joey966]

Fillin up the ole blue tombstone.

[@matthewwatkins9008]

Farm Chem has the base for a cone bottom tank. Floyd Iowa.

[@timsziminski2461]

Looking at that tank visually doesn't look bad just reinforce it with some larger metal throw some welds on it and paint it up. Just a thought 👊

[@brianshell4111]

I'll take care of u on the cone or base for that tank. Please have someone from the farm reach out. My family owns a very large fab shot. We build the connection at a power plant from the generator to the transformer. We have two of the biggest Omax waterjets in southern Ohio

[@HartungFamilyFarms]

Hey that’s awesome! My email is in the description of the video, mind shooting me a note?

[@rogerhecker4111]

Going for high moisture corn or dry corn? Big blue silo will work for dry corn as long there is a fan on the bottom

[@porterisaacson415]

Have you checked with hog slat? They might have something

[@timwilcoxsr2712]

IF you lived closer to me I know a "fab shop" near me that can make anything.

[@HartungFamilyFarms]

Darn it!

[@BWYinYang]

Blue bin should be ok as long the ground not mushy. Sell corn before spring.

[@jdtractorman7445]

Was the grain you put in the silo damp or wet? Maybe it froze on the side where the dent formed.

[@rmnfarms523]

Ur good

[@nathancarder1822]

I know a place here in western pa that will make you a new bottom for your tank

[@damonens9478]

So Ron, why not unload the rear trailer first? Keep the weight on your drives?

[@Oliver-kv2mm]

Check Modern Welding in Burlington.

[@watomb]

I always thought that all farms that used Harvestores went bankrupt:). Good video question tank depot. Guessing it’s cheaper to replace the entire tank

[@jdtractorman7445]

Most dairy farms went bankrupt, got out of the business completely or diversified what they were doing because of the crappy prices they get for their milk. The prices are bad a heck of a lot more than good most of the time. It has nothing to do with having a Harvestore silo or not. That's probably a thought dreamed up by a city person that's never been on a farm.

[@arnoldmayer6914]

Only guys in North Dakota that use harvestore silos were Dairy Farmers they were known as blue tombs and there must be some truth in their statement as there aren't many milk farms left in the state

[@jimconnolly3572]

When an engine is hunting you’re idle rpm is to low and needs to be increased by adjusting the pump or the cable going to it

[@billpearson6569]

RPM is to low .

[@HartungFamilyFarms]

Good to know guys, thanks! FYI, I’ll ask the same question in a few videos that I recorded yestersay

[@nathanmelander3995]

You have it insured

[@tomcleghorn4005]

Isn't everything a risk? Seed, fertilizer,weather? Sometime the risk is a manageable gamble

[@ProudPapaw88]

I think you’ll be fine. Except for the smashed thumb. I think I would have turned the camera off and said a few choice words. No I probably wouldn’t have I would have let it fly on camera. 👍 😂

[@thelunatick1993]

Did you open up the vents on top when pulling from it. That steel isn’t that thin. But they are air tight. Bins are not. Btw. Sell the silo and have it taken down. Don’t think the porcelain cladding is all that valuable for selling it as scrap iron.

[@marianhoban9086]

ia-Ti! un! Dodge'

[@flemmingnielsen5989]

I don’t think it was to big off a risk filing that bin

[@banjobenson9348]

you can always get a vaccum and salvage most of it .

[@oldad6207]

I'm sure Leg Arms feels really bad about your thumb. 😉

[@jamesforman6587]

What do you mean your Harvest store has no floor

[@HartungFamilyFarms]

No floor that allows airation through it

[@burtbenz9964]

Thx 4 talking fast. I can keep up. Slow talk is a bummer. .

[@burtbenz9964]

City tard near Disneyland where acre is 3 million!

[@burtbenz9964]

Friends had 8 acres in oc. 6 sold 4 12 million

[@40yeartrucker25]

Ask Welker Farms MT

[@dennishuntley7688]

Are you insured for the potential failure?

[@HartungFamilyFarms]

Sure am

[@drknockers5716]

Lets go Brandon!!!!!

[@georgeherefordhereford3428]

Talker

[@Daveco82]

Cooper Cornstar Farms can Fab anything!

[@geesss8675]

That whole Sy-Low speech was soo boring. . . Can't you talk about deer hunting or something I just think that meant silos are boring and going to hurt your channel and no one will come here you won't get all your money

[@HartungFamilyFarms]

Huh?
