Pre-plowing with the tiller stand must make it easier for the tiller to till. LOL I'm glad to see other do things I do all the time. Nice video. Thanks

I would like to express my appreciation for your video. My father in law is 94, and has really been wanting this new attachment for the ranch. It’s hard for him to go shopping around and “kicking tires” as he puts it, so he watched your video about four times, and has decided to make the purchase! As long as his sons do the actual work!

I used to play in the fields after my Grandpa would till. Sounds weird I guess but when I smell a freshly plowed field it takes me back to my childhood. Enjoyed watching!

Tilling has always been one of my favorite tractor activities, I just don't have a need to do it as much as I'd like. Btw, your camera person was letting you down. In the forefront of the video, you could see you guys left the tiller kickstand down to do it's own trenching. Of course, I think just about all of us have done that from time to time. Using a tiller sure beats a shovel, LOL!

Good morning Jeff! For the amoung of tilling i do i just borrow one but i took a look the other day and prices are going through the roof! How much land does the 200 new trees consume?

@watkinstreefarm6880 2 жыл бұрын

The general rule 1000 per acre. This fall will be mainly to fill in all the dead trees.

I have a belly mower and a PTO chipper for my 1025. Whenever I engage the PTO for either, I am at idle then throttle up after its engaged. When I engaged the PTO at a high throttle it would always make a loud smack sound from the shock that I did not like. Not saying its right or wrong, I just never liked the sound of it engaging the drive shaft at anything over a low throttle. I do not have a tiller so not sure if that is different. I am also not running a clutch on my drive shafts, which may make a difference. From the video it looks like you throttled up then engaged the PTO. Love the vlogs btw!

Thanks for watching. I don't know what the correct way is. My mower smacks like that but haven't noticed with the tiller.

Frontier= Built to break. Cast mounting arms broke, fishplated with 1/2 × 2 flat bar, then the 2 piece gearbox split apart, unfixable, total junk. Replaced with 48" Woods, same cast iron gearbox as 60", no more tiller problems. Top link ears on trans on both 1023 and 1025 broke off. Like japanese dirt bikes, built to break

Anyone know difference in the rt1149 and rt3049 ?

@watkinstreefarm6880 2 жыл бұрын

I looked real quick & I agree they look the same but the weight was different. I would assume the RT3049 is a little more heavy duty. Thanks for watching!!

@MrSvt6 2 жыл бұрын

I do believe the 1149 is chain driven and the 3049 is gear driven

Slow it down a little, let those blades do more work

Your the first to say that but I did think of that a couple weeks ago when prepping for the Christmas Trees. I usually do it 2 or 3 times which helps. Thanks for watching.

I make one slow pass. It saves time in the long run. But also does a better job on those grasses and clumps. That tiller is awesome

We till an excessive amount of mulched leaves into our soil along with rabbit and chicken manure. We only use whats on our property. No store bought fertilizers. We produce an abundant amount of veggies on our small property. I’m jealous of your land.

Why you call your tractor a 1025R when you have in reality a 1026R ????? Call an apple an apple

@watkinstreefarm6880 9 ай бұрын

You caught me!! Nobody is going to search for a 1026R John Deere. They are almost identical. I believe the 2011 & 12 were made and assembled outside the USA. 2013-present all assembly is in the USA. Thanks for watching!!
