FARM CHORE Mowing the Fields in Late Summer with a Kubota L3901 and Land Pride Flail Mower
We use a flail mower in the late summer to maintain our fields. Mowing controls weeds and brush and helps distribute seeds and break down organic matter. Mowing in late summer minimizes the impact on our animal habitats, such as nesting birds and insects. We use a Kubota L3901 Tractor and a Land Pride 60-inch flail mower.
Location: Western Washington
When: Early September 2022.

Learn to repair a garden house with a wire clamp tool. In this video, I used a Clamptite CLT01L to make the stainless steel clamp.

HOW TO Re-shape 30" Market Garden Beds
Просмотров 1412 года назад
I share how we re-shape our 30" market garden beds as we prepare for the 2022 growing season. As you add compost to the beds and woodchips to the paths, beds can shift and become uneven, making it more challenging to maintain, plant and harvest while also causing an untidy appearance.

    Great video, thanks. I just bought a used L3901 and noticed my float is at the line, so I knew I needed to do this but wasn't sure where the air vent was. Definitely am not going to be putting my fuel cap on the seat though, small kids are milling about and will take that and make it disappear lol.

    You are going to have problems when winterizing the system: the female threaded fitting is too close to the valve box. I would try make make an L up toward the cover of the valve box so it could be better for you to hook up the compressor hose fittings.

      Not sure exactly what specific part you mean but there are a bunch of access points then I blow it out with a Master Blaster (metrovac.com/products/air-force-master-blaster), I know it is not conventional but it is something I have already and it let's me open up an end then blow all the way down that line. The blower is strong enough to easily empty our full irrigation lines so before winter, all the lines were fully drained and the pump was filled with RV water line anti-freeze for potable water systems. To add a bit more safety to the pump sensors, there is also a water line heater around key components in the pump box.

      Ok, now I think I know what you might be talking about... the grey fitting at the edge of the valve box... that is not a female couple, that is a quick connect union which can be disconnected with zero clearance. I just open release the outer ring in the fall and all the water drips out then I can close it back up.

    Something that may help when burying lines. Backfill 6” then put down flagging tape(they make some specifically for this purpose) and then finish backfilling. If you are digging in the future you should hit the tape first and know there is a line underneath. Hope this helps. Good luck with the farm!

    We always feel behind. I think that's natural. Each week, put a piece of paper on the fridge. Everyday add to the list of what you've accomplished. At the end of the week you'll see all you've done! It's probably a LOT!

    • @jasonfalk
      @jasonfalk 2 года назад

      Thanks! Yes, we can work the soil here year round as long as it is not too soggy but due to the lack of light you can’t really grow anything till later Feb or march and even then it is pretty slow till April. Anything you do plant out just stalls.
