If the ground is completely free of clods and obstacles (fresh tilled sandy loam) the twin wheel setup can’t be beat, if the ground has clods (basically any clay soil) the cotton wheels are the ticket

Thanks for watching/commenting James!

Thanks for watching and commenting Dan!

Thanks for taking the time to watch them Joshua! I use to have relatives in Athens, Al. That is definitely tornado alley.

Do y’all have any Level Plains Farm and Garden caps still laying around? I collect ag related caps, the rarer the better.

@@PatrickShivers we sure don’t. I wish I did.

It’s amazing how quick the weather changes down south

@@PatrickShivers It really is

I recorded a scene just for you with the camera mounted on front of the tractor as I was leaving field and shutting down on the throttle. It didn’t make the final cut as it was black dark outside and the bright lights of tractor washed out everything.

@@PatrickShivers thanks for trying, this was awesome

Not yet. Them and the green beans are going to be late. The green beans will still do fine, the sweet peas may have issues with to much heat.

We’re supposed to get some T-storms and rain, but not much has materialized yet. All the corn is in the ground, just finished getting green bean field ready

Whatever is standard on the 1720 XP. It pops up automatically on the greenstar screen when the electrical hookup is plugged in.

Granular Pesticide. They are not always used, but when they are the stuff that goes in them will kill an animal within a step or two and then kill the buzzard that eats the dead animal before it can get 6’ away

😂

Running duals on the gauge wheels is a southern thing. Singles sometimes push in sandy areas instead of rolling so we add duals to increase the traction and force them to roll.

Thanks for watching/commenting. I like that Peterbilt!

Where I’m at most farms have one or two 12 row planters. I haven’t seen or heard of anyone in tristate area running bigger than 12. 6 row are actually starting to comeback and be more and more common.

​@@PatrickShivers6 row is the predominant planter in this area of east central Georgia, mainly because most farmers hook them in tandem with a 6 row strip till, usually a KMC or Unverferth. 12 row can cover a lot of ground but it usually means making 2 trips across the field, so it works out about equal, time wise.

@@MarshallLanier those are popular south of here where the ground gets sandier. In our clay we have to have time between strip till and planter b/c fresh moist clay sticks to planter gauge wheels.

A few hours

It came by once in the foggy background in this one. I’ll get some good 4960 shots running the field cultivator ahead of peanut planting
