So do I just buy those bags and spread the powder on the ground, then till, and can I do that all in the same day?

i call BS on same amount of time ,,, tiller is super slow going ,,, disc can go faster ,,, at least 3 times faster, less fuel even if you disc 3 times compared to 1 tiller time ..... i realy though i would see a true comparison -

This was really helpful. Really helped me make a decision. I would love a tiller but my field is pretty rocky... So discs it is. We'll just need to make a few more passes
@mikeclement5383 Жыл бұрын
I use both! Depends on what plots I'm doing and if I use herbicides or not. If I use my tiller, I usually run my discs first anyways so it's easier on my tiller. Also can flip up some unsuspecting rocks, thus saving the tiller. I like making my first disc cut not too aggressive and run somewhat slow. Then I angle the discs more and speed up perpendicular to my first cut. Seems to work for me. If I just disc, it's way faster. It seems as though the deer don't care which ones I use so long as they're fed. I'm no expert and have zero farm background. This is just based off what I've done with my food plots. I'm only working up a couple acres a year with an old Ford Jubilee.

Why didn’t you disc it again
@FoodPlotSolutions Жыл бұрын
The video was just to illustrate the difference. You could disc it 2 more times and surface finish won’t be the same as a tiller majority of the time. Using both a disc and a tiller is usually the best in our case where there are a lot of rocks but also planting conditions aren’t always the best so a quick hit with disc can help dry the soil out a little to make actual planting or other tillage work actually possible

A moldboard plough is the implement for turning sod. A disc comes later when the plants under the plowed soil die. A chisel pow or ripper are to loosen the subsoil. Tillers may be for gardeners or hobbyists; they are not for farming though.

I have about 5 acres of plots I've used plow and disk the last few years but decided to till this year and they both worked fine to do it. But you are right about the rocks with the tiller.

Good video man... It really helped me. I think tiller is better than disc. For a 30 hectare land, what size tiller should look for? And what size tractor? I am planning to buy those two and use them on a land that hasn't been used for the past 30 years.
@joshuawiedenbeck69442 жыл бұрын
You'll want to look at the tiller and tractor at the same time. Tillers have minimum and maximum HP requirements for the tractor. If you're under the requirement it will take you forever to till, and if you are over you risk breaking the tiller due to the extra stressors additional HP would bring. A rule I follow is buy as big as you are able without the size becoming inconvenient (access around the farm, handling, etc).

So what about a few passes with a disk? Ever get good? And did you have much momentum with the disk? I've heard they take a good amount of momentum to work good which I'd assume means you'll make much quicker passes. Anyway, thought I'd ask since I've never used one. Thanks for the video
@BryanPoulsen2 жыл бұрын
Tillers are great for small areas that are relatively clear. If you use a tiller on acres it is going to cause extra wear and tear on your tractor. They both have their uses and I choose to run both.

How big of tractor you running? If it’s big enough a pto powered rock rake/rock bucket setup might be an idea or if you know a farmer near by that has one it will really help and is worth the $. …. Sad truth is that every year it seems like u planted them they just keep popping up

If you’re sowing buckwheat, the disced sod is just fine. You don’t need to spend the money on a tiller. I use a two-bottom plow every other season and disc every season before broadcast sowing. Buckwheat comes up fast and thick. Thanks for the side-by-side comparison though.

A forward rotating tiller will “hop” over rocks, roots and other obstacles and leaves a slightly coarser texture which I prefer. A backwards rotating one can “hang up” on obstacles and it leaves a talc like texture. Been using a tiller for food plots for over 25 years. Bush hog, pour seed & fertilizer in spreader…spread it, till it and your done. Super quick and easy.

Depends on the dirt and the crop. Disc on my sandy loam the disc cuts 12” deep in two passes and it’s nice but I think I’m gonna try the log like the video I just watched. Planting sorguhm in the spring only 3-5 acres dry land. New York farmer but my disc has done lots of soil work cutting up the dirt on my motocross track. It is almost perfect but can leave some weird ruts if doesn’t get ridden in by enough bikes.

@FoodPlotSolutions4 жыл бұрын
Dye is 1oz to 2oz (if you want to add more you can to darken color). Spreader Sticker is 2 teaspoons per gallon so you would be at 6.6oz per 20 gallons. Note in the video there is Glystar Plus which does have sticker already in it so in a situation like that you wouldn't need to. If you are unsure just put a at least a couple oz in it and you'll be good to go.

I've actually had success in spots like that in the past. Dutch White Clover and Durana Clover both do pretty well with limited sunlight, as do several brassica species. Lime and fertilizer are a must, and periodic treatments with a product like DeerGro's Plot Boost or Antler King's Jolt definitely help. So while there is definitely canopy there, you can certainly have success as long as the proper steps are taken.
