That is awesome!

wow, 10 ft. Nice. I will say that my germination rate went thru the roof just by using the cultipacker…. My turnips and clover were lush and green thru the whole deer season.

Thanks for your interest. I agree that there are 1) many ways to improve it. and 2) we seem in society to focus on negative. Getting ready to make my mod to the unit and hopefully put out a video, getting ready for spring food plot season.

Lol I hear you… @kdb991. Funny story… I grew up on a tobacco farm and we had JD, Ford, and farmalls. My first real job out of the field, was at the local JD dealer assembling and delivering mowers, tractors, chainsaws, etc…. I love JD. But when I bought my tractor for my small hunting farm, I needed convenience, and I wanted “universal tractor accessory” ability. Love my Kubota. Would equally love a JD but the kubota was 1)close by, 2) in my price range, and 3) Available.

@@kdb991 me too. might be a slightly different shade. I love JD, especially the AG stuff... When it comes to my small hunting farm, though... it just worked out to be orange. As a 9 yr old in the tobacco fields, I could only push the clutch in on a Ford.. so I ran the ford 3000. As I got older- I spent my time on the JD 4250. Love them.

You can get some at a hardware store looks like a 8 inch pipe can get 4 6 8 easy enough cut to length for most places

check out the updated video for a few peeks at it working. On,y issue is it packs in when the ground is really wet, but I have a fix and will shoot that video soon. It’s a 1.5 inch piece of pvc and a 1.25 inch piece of conduit as the axle. No grease, although you could do that. If it wears out in 5 yrs, I’ll rebuild it. If you have access to to the cultipacker plates, that would be an upgrade. I didn’t. So I used what I had and the food plots were a lot better germination this past yr.

Hope it worked out for you. I have thoroughly enjoyed using it.

@@davidt-the-mortgage-farmer works great. We did a lot of food plots

Pre mixed then poured in . 1-that many bags would be hard to get the water mixed. 2-It was very very heavy.

your welcome. I look forward to shooting some more videos of it

If this helps. Its a 1.75" piece of PVC. Inside that sleeve, is a 1.5" piece of conduit. On EACH end... I have a U bolt that is affixed to the metal conduit, which spins inside the PVC. It has worked remarkably well and I used it approximately 2 hrs in yr one. For $70, its one of my best "projects". foodplots came up Super nice.

PVC is centered in the concrete and the "Axle" (piece of 1.75" conduit) spins within the pvc. Axle is affixed to the frame with 2 U bolts. I made two "bushings" out of the same pvc that are about an inch long each... they occupy the slack space between the end of the concrete and the frame. Over many yrs, and many hrs of use... I assume the pvc will degrade. But using the cultipacker for a couple hrs each yr... It'll last a LONG time.

For this specific program, you do not need to be a first time buyer. It’s simply an FHA loan and then the lender has chosen to add a “3.5%” second mortgage behind the first. It’s not the “end all, be all”.. but it’s an option. I still encourage clients to look first towards finding a downpayment… but if it’s not possible…. We reach into our quiver and pull out THIS arrow….

Jason, thx for the comment. 1) the frame is strong. No issue at all. 2) I only use it to get seed into the ground on "already soft, disked ground". 3) its certainly not perfect but hence the term DIY... I used what I had, put $70 in it and have cultipacked 2.5 acres so far. It shows "no wear". Again thx for the reply. For $70, I can rebuild it 14 times before I've spent what a cultipacker would have cost me. I'll have a video coming out soon showing it in action.

It,s not like it,s going to be used for 12hrs a day for years. It will work fust fine.

@@winterhorse290 - Nope, it'll get used for an hour or two at a time, over rough terrain, getting jerked around by a quad or tractor...and it'll break. I've been putting in food plots and helping folks put in theirs for more than a decade now, so when I tell ya that thing is not going to really work as a cultipacker, and that tongue isn't going to last, I'm not just speculatin'. ;)

We’ll, so far it has about an hour and 2.5 acres of foodplots and it is in great shape. But again, Jason… thanks for being so open and candid with your opinions.

@@davidt-the-mortgage-farmer - Just out of curiosity, have you ever had the pleasure of using a real cultipacker?

Agreed. And I am not even against them…. I just hate they have decided that rates hikes are the only “arrow” in their quiver. Thx for the comment.

I would like to see that as well.

Second that.

I’ll get some footage up in my next video on “Foodplots”. It worked great… for $70. In wet ground, the dirt packed in the grooves a tad. I’ll be modifying it. But all in all. The foodplots look awesome thanks to the cultipacking (and moisture).

ruclips.net/video/-qdS7SK_gog/видео.htmlsi=9DBHywcR062qgC4P Here is the update showing some of the action.

I agree. I watched the entire video and nothing at the end . I'm out. Not coming back.

Ryan, while I appreciate your candor, there is just so much more that goes in the equation. And do you think its fair for all borrowers coming from all walks of life to not become homeowners because Ryan says so? Your 401k is an asset to be used to help you financially. Your home is also an asset you can use to help you financially. Thanks for the comment, but I want all parties on this channel to be fair and open to a variety of scenarios. Including whether using an asset like a 401k is the right move for each person.

I borrowed 50k from my 401k 3 years ago for house downpayment. NOW I'm up 85k with my appreciation. my retirement just sped up

@@RONV673 way to go, Ronaldo. That’s the key…. Your 401k is an asset… use it to grow your wealth. Kudos to you. Certainly isn’t the right answer for every situation…. But it is for many.

@THE MORTGAGE FARMER your 401k is there for leverage. I transfered some of my equity from 401k to real estate. I refuse to go with the herd on this one+

More often than you might imagine. Think of it this way… it’s one more tool in your toolbox. I have helped several “adult children” buy homes for their parents. The alternative-being forced to treat it as an investment property and pay a rate 1-1.5% higher.

Glad it was helpful!

I am unsure what you are asking. “When” what?

@@davidt-the-mortgage-farmer when did I ask
