hey everybody its Ryan welcome back to how farms work we are standing behind
the a2 we just hooked up the hearth master 3000 vertical tillage tool we are
going to start seeding oats out at my place today so we're setting this thing
up we're going to grease it real quick I'm gonna head out there and start
smoothing out some of that ground the we already went through and started
chiseled so this is just doing the final prep before we go through and see it
with the seed drill so I'm gonna start recent
the 82 is all greased and ready to go let's go ahead start it up go fuel up
and then head out to my place and start beating and smoothing out that ground
sorry Calvin
so today we're sitting down 12 acres of oats as a parent crop to alfalfa on the
seed drill the smaller boxes on the front or for the alfalfa it just kind of
throws it down on the soil and then it sort of drills the bolts into the ground
the also grow up as a parent crop the alfalfa meaning that it'll grow better
and we don't particularly need the oats but the alfalfa does do better when it
has a parent crop with it rather than direct seeds and conceding so this is a
nice slow day for us to figure out if there are any problems both with the BT
and with the seed drill I noticed that I'm missing one of the flashes on the VT
back there but no big deal it easily could have gotten caught on one of the
disks and pulled it off there's a basically just disconnects right there
all I got to do is get a new light to replace it so probably order one of
those this week but there really isn't all that much
here I have about 25 acres of my own boats that I'm seating in and we'll be
doing that sometime after next week that still has
yet to be chisel so finish beating this here get this all seated down and then
I'm pretty sure that's solve what Dad has the seed this year
Travis said he needed parts so I went and got him a 9/16 bolts apparently lost
one so we're going to take it out
now that the oats and alfalfa are seated out here it's just time to let them grow
so we're gonna be starting planning here before long depending on how the weather
cooperates so keep an eye out for more planting videos coming up soon with that
