Good morning Chris ☕☕☕ I'd say it's how the plastic moves.. and 7 month plastic... How old was it when you got it?? If it's 3 or 4 months old, it's structurally degraded. Makes sense why the regular plastic laid so well in comparison.
@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin it was new. I do trust the people we buy from, but some of these products just don't seem to do well in our rocky soil. Thanks Ed 🙂
Boy oh boy, you and I have sucj struggles some days!! That was awful how it was not staying under the tires and ripping. I dont blame you one bit for switching it to the other style. I see my combine there in the background 🤔😉🤣 Hopefully things got better for you Mr Chris, look fwd to seeing whats next!!! 😁😁👍🏻👍🏻
I've seen lot's of plastic in melon fields. I never asked. I assumed that the farmer had it figured out. The pumpkins grown in western Kansas didn't have plastic. Thank you Chris.
Hi Chris, I was wondering if you put the small role in the place of the big role if it will work, may be it is the position of the role relative to the wheels
@jankotze1959 unfortunately, no. The plastic works well from either location- the machine is designed to have the same resistance from either location. Thank you Jan 🙂
@GeigerFarm yes, and they have always been helpful. Unfortunately we have found that sometimes products don't work as well as they should because of our rocky soil.
@@WorldsOkayestFarmer no. It came from a supplier we have dealt with for 10 years. Unfortunately, we have found that sometimes products don't work as well in our stony soils. Thanks!

@@Pennies_on_the_dollar yup, your combine didn't wash away in all the flooding we had here. It's been a tough summer.
@dehavenfamilyfarm Man I know it has for y'all Mr Chris

Thank you Chris.
@brycewiborg8095 it's an easy form of weed control with the added benefit of speeding the growing time. Thanks 🙂
Your luck is like my luck Chris. Take care my friend and hope you have a blessed weekend.
Aren’t the disks supposed to throw dirt on the plastic to hold it down?
@@dalehammond2264 yup, and they usually do..

Very frustrating I know. Having the right tool for the materials/job is critical 🤷♂️. Did you contact the supplier to give feedback/get support??
@GeigerFarm yes, and they have always been helpful. Unfortunately we have found that sometimes products don't work as well as they should because of our rocky soil.
I dont think I have ever seen that implement before, Man they have an implement for everything.
