Yep, it may not look like spring just yet but, it's time to start getting the planter ready. Good info on the sensors & possible cause of the skips. Stay safe.

I learned quite a bit about corn planters today! You should have washed that planter before you started working on it ;) Nice work on the intro and ending!!!

DeHaven Family Farm I need a new pressure washer first! Yeah, not much to do so I been playing with my video editor! If farming doesn't work out, maybe I'll head to Hollywood! Lol

Wow the optic sensor looked like the same as the one in oil fired furnace . If it got smut on it it would shout off burner . Hey like your intro!

Scott’s Small Farming and Things . Thanks Scott! I would guess they are about the same type of sensor

Love the new intro! Yes this is where the Solo Shot would be a nice to have. Keep up the Spring maintenance, Spring will eventually come. Have you ordered your seed? Can you get a shorter season variety?

@larsonvalleyfarm 6 жыл бұрын

+AKWayne S thanks Wayne. I have all my seed already. I did order a shorter day corn. Beans are still a 1.9 maturity, but they'll be fine! Yes, that soloshot would be awesome, maybe someday I can afford one!

Every time I hear that intro music, I think of "The Worlds Okest Farmer" channel. Lol. At least they make them easy enough to swap out. Are they more expensive than any other through beam photo eye, since it's machine specific?

@larsonvalleyfarm 6 жыл бұрын

Denny's Country Life not sure if they are brand specific! Deere and Kinze are the same

What monitor do you use on that planter? And it looks like when the planter is working correctly the sensors all cause individual lights to light up?

@larsonvalleyfarm 3 жыл бұрын

Its a Dicky John Monitor, don't remember the model number right off hand. Yes the lights flash every time a seed passes the sensor, and if a light doesn't flash in a certain time period it will set off the alarm to alert you that a row isn't working

So let me get this straight the brush fools computer into thinking it is seed in the tube?

LVF & Northern Wisconsin Farming looks as so you could use a new brush that one looks to have seen better days😂😂 lol

Nah, its got another 10 years left in it!

@DennysCountryLife 6 жыл бұрын

Being that it's a photo eye, it will see anything that breaks the through beam. I like how they offer the brush to clean the tube at the same time you check the sensor.

@larsonvalleyfarm 6 жыл бұрын

Denny's Country Life same concept as the photo optic eyes on my lasers I ran! You know, osha requirements! Lol

I don't think my planter had sensors I have to get out of the tractor and check the drill and that makes me sad. Oh well I guess I don't have to plant 1000's of acres, but sensors would be cool.

@larsonvalleyfarm 6 жыл бұрын

AndersonCattleCo. At the end of each row I always look to see that seeds are falling out of each row because you never know if the sensors are working right!

Waht's zup? Lot of corny videos lately hugh? You'll be dry in no time if it stays up in the 60's with little rain for the rest of April. Well, except for your waterway. Snow is mostly gone here except for up to 1.5 feet deep behind the crest of the hills where the blizzards had fun. Frost is about 4 inches down so I haven't been stuck...yet!

Digby O'Dell yes, the ground should dry fast now!
