I'm sure when you imagine yourself adding all these grease everything goes very well for one that requires drilling all the way through weakening your material and I can tell by this guy's video he's not exactly super knowledgeable about the physics of things no I'm not positive about that. Anyway the worst idea is to think you're going to add grease fittings like talking about it. But I'm a big fan of Greece and a lot of people are going to show up and say well it's going to attract dirt but the dirt will collect more on the outside where it can get on the the dictation is making this I have not been able to find it go get a very good Grease Lucas extra duty synthetic green greased rated for permanent or another synthetic or even Lucas read take it apart grease everything and then it's not something everyone will want to do in my old age I might not be doing that you're really not going to wear out your potato digger I don't think I mean if I were having to add washers sure I would be greasing what I disassembledI'm big on lubrication I even get a zep spray bottle you know the big bottle like Windex except jumbo size I put motor oil in that thing and use it to squirt oil all over moving stuff oil and dirt polish a grease and third polish it lasts a lot longer than just dirt by definitely when people say grease attracts dirt you don't want to worry about that you go ahead and lubricate your stuff don't pretend neglect is I grow a lot of potatoes too

Was wanting to do that this year but got busy with a new job and family.

@@potatofarmer if you have time pl brief it in simple lines... thanks ...

Any way you can give some dimensions on the digger that can be used to make our own?

@@toyotaworks09sorry, just seeing your reply now, as I was notified in a folder in my email that I never look in. I will try to help when I get to my storage shed again. It’s winter here, and snow prevents my access to the farm at present.

Ive seen that as well. After getting rid of the pinch points almost all damage stopped.

Thank you, I really enjoy growing Potatoes. They are truly one of the most versatile and beautiful plants on this earth. Winter is weeks away though, so back to AOG and RTK!!

Cool, when does this potato show happen?

Jan 25 to 27

Your right! Nothing tastes better than high grade garden potatoes.

Sure do! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oJiJpr2mlbnSiGQ.html

I bought the harvester from “the tractor company” out of Osler, SK. They sell compact tractors and attachments. Still think the PTO could be mounted a few inches higher. Saved about 12hrs of digging by hand!

I took one off, then went to the hardware store to compare.

Tractor Company in Osler Saskatchewan, its cheaper than the time it used to take to dig the whole garden out by hand lol. Productivity Costs.

Yes, the GPS is AgOpenGPS. It utilizes RTK and is accurate enough to mow the lawn with. It has many advanced features like U turn. Check out my other videos and see it in action on a Steiger Panther III

www.everythingattachments.com I wish i could readily have that much selection

If I may ask what did you give for this little beasty ?@@potatofarmer

At time of video $3500 CDN, they have gone up since then

The Tractor Company, Osler Saskatchewan.

I bought it in February, on the day of the mass invasion of Ukraine. At that time it was $2700cdn plus tax. I had to go to Osler to pick it up as delivery was extra. Then had to wait a few months for it to come from china. There are places that sell small potato equipment in Alberta but the quote for the same style harvester in Alberta was $6500 at that time. Prices have gone up since.

@@potatofarmer wow thats nuts i dont know how they over charging for so many things i think ill build one before buying one i was looking for a middle buster or sub soiler and they were like $400+ just thinking for near future maybe look up some tractor scrap like i did for my snow blade it was beat up pretty bad and still paid $150 had to put some work into it . theres a small tractor/lawn equipment place just east of edmonton called wyes guys they had a lot of old small tractor stuff in their yard was going to have a look but we got hit with all that snow last few days so everything is on hold again lol

$3K Canadian of which half is the tablet and dock, including an Emlid M2 with survey antenna for RTK base station. That is the parts price I could get them at 2021/22, and I was trying to spend money on it. Wanted a trimble cfx750 or better experience and got it. Compare at $60K+ USD per Tractor for JD Starfire with RTK. There is ROI in DIY.

Its from the Tractor Company in Osler Saskatchewan. They have lots of compact tractor implements.

@@potatofarmer thank-you sir

What brand is this?

@@MrMessyjesse84 Terrain, they are sold by the “Tractor Company” in Osler Saskatchewan Canada.

About two inches below the base of the hill. The potatoes are in a hill, so its not really digging in into the ground that much.

After digging, do you check somehow if there are some potatoes left under this 2 inches.... ? Or you don't bother. @farmer I'm sorry for maybe stupid questions but I'm a newbe 🙂

@@kudlabartosz good questions. The first time using the digger went back through the rows a second time, and found only a handful of smaller than golf ball sized ones left behind. At the end of the year used a cultivator to check deeper but there was only a couple misses. In total less than one hills worth of potatoes was left out of 300hills , I miss potatoes more digging by hand.

Thanks a lot for a very quick and precise answer. Good luck 👍@@potatofarmer

The digger went A few inches below the hill which was perfect, the potatoes in the hill rarely go below the base of the hill.

Who is your friend? The Rooster unfortunately met Mr. Fox, but he had a good run. Survived a couple months outside doing as he pleased.

Slowly eat them over winter and next spring cannot beat the flavour. 😊 Famine can happen at any time, just ask a Baba. (Ukrainian Grandmother) You cannot buy food that does not exist.

I grow a lot I planted 400 lb this but I messed up and had to get more this is my love of potatoes also fighting dictation for you you can live off of potatoes I give up its just doing one sentence at a time I just can't hang I got more to say there's a lot of reasons to grow potatoes here we can have two seasons of potatoes so that's totally awesome
