- Plowing New Garden Spot with Craftsman GT 3000 with a 10" Brinly moldboard Plow. This is not the best way to do it but I have 6 months to get this garden spot ready. Just a little at a time.
that is an in-furrow plow.. the right tires of your tractor goes in the furrow the plow leaves.. nice tractor and plow.. good luck gardening
Take the deck off, get some ags on the rears, add weights.
Hints for people looking to plow. Sit the left side of the tractor on 6x6 blocks while on a level concrete surface and adjust the plow so that the point of the share is on the ground and the back of the landslide is just off the ground 1/4 to 1/2". Adjust more level in the field if it tries to plunge. Use tire chains or switch to R1s. Don't remove the coulter. Do remove the mowing deck, but not until you've scalped the place to be plowed. It works even better to burn it off.
Don't mind the negative comments. It appears to be working for what you want. Do what you can with what you've got. Good luck with your garden.
Thank you Joshua I do appreciate that.
I don't see many negative comments, but several are making suggestions that would make it work better. How is that negative?
Gt series are really a great tractor. I just bought a 3000gt. Its definitely a garden tractor got lug nutted tires and is heavy. Lov it
Its a GT which stands for GARDEN TRACTOR! LAWN tractors are strictly for mowing and light duty pulling. That one is made for working. Big clue is the lugs on the rear wheels for the heavy duty transmission.
What you need is wheel weights and chains, it will make plowing much Easier
Don't mind the you tube know it all's that have thousands of dollars to spend on a garden tractors to mow their moderate size yards. for all the people who want to plow a garden or use a box blade on the drive way, or plow some snow every year these will work fine for several years, until you can figure out what you want, and need. there are lots of older G/T out there that was designed to do what ever you want it to do for a reasonable price with the added benefit of learning to work on and appreciate old iron that never wears out, or you can save some bucks for a new one that will last for many years. watch craigs list, local auctions or ebay to slowly build up your attachments at a reasonable price. just be patient. if you figure out its not the life stile you want to follow then you are not out 10k.
Badass though!! Great idea
Those are good ole tractor i still have em n strong
Nice attachment
I got same mower and attachments except mine has a disk on it also have the tiller with separate motor
you really need some wheel weights or liquid ballast
It sure would've helped. I have gotten the wheel weights since this video. They help a lot.
weights and if your going to use turf tires, slap some tire chains on. That makes the difference... Good looking tractor though
How well did your lawnmower hold up using it for a tractor? I have that same model I just bought used. Thanks for the video😊
You need a wheel weight on the outboard wheel, also you need a coulter to cut the sod. mower deck doesn't help. I used to plow 4 acres with a 1974 ,16 hp sears tractor.
Bill Stokes - anything else that he needs???? My god you are dumbass!
@@jeffsapp5258 Why is he a dumbass?
Lol im digging the lawnmower making a garden area. Im about to buy one of those DR tillers for the lawn mower.
its not a lawn mover, it is a garden tractor, (GT) which is a cut above, to handle implements. Keep practicing...
Im shocked it did as well as it did
Me too :)
Wheel weights and chains, and maybe a Gps and John deere 8RX will perfect the plowing a little bit.
Just kidding, I guess this is good for a Diy guy
I'm impressed, especially since it doesn't have tractor tread tires.l
cohor227, how did you attach the Brinly to your lawn mower? what is that attachment you used to raise and lower the plow? thanks..
Craftsman makes a sleeve hitch receiver for their mowers. It allows you to attach any of their implements. I bought this one used off of Craigslist. It works pretty good.
And some ag tires for the back
Gonna burn some belts hoewing like that. Although my GT 5000 is killer.
Those turf tires don't help you much, I put the AG tires on mine, but I don't plow the land, mine is simply for plowing snow. I removed the mower deck, the brackets that holds the wheels of the mower deck broke off at the weld. Bought a John Deere D130 for cutting the grass. My Craftsman is a GT 5000, and I like it a lot, but was wondering if yours still runs? Thank You
Does it smoke?
Spare trans be good idea. Don't sound too good
what horsepower was that lawn tractor?
22
69thumbs down mad because they can't find a good tractor like you have 😜😛😛😁😁
What transmission does the GT3000 have ? I'm very impressed !!!
That has a wimpy K91 TuffTork. Not a good transmission for pulling any implements.
Only a 1.2 quart hydrostatic fluid level. And a sealed unit. Meaning you can't change the filter or flush them.
A throw away hydrostatic vs the older Eaton, sunstrand, and IH built hydrostatic transmissions.
@@williamajthompson9166 LOL those have a Hydro-Gear 210-3010 with a separate BDU-10 pump, the same pump that the later Cub Cadets had and some of the 200 series Deere tractors in the early 90s. Fully serviceable unit, spin on filter and holds between 2 & 3 qts of 20w50 on an oil change. Not trying to be a prick about it, just presenting the facts. Before anyone turns into a smartass just know, I know what I am talking about, I have repaired enough GTs that I know every nut & bolt on most of them out there and that's a fact. The later GT6000 used a Hyrdo-Gear G730 which still uses a spin on filter. The only reason for the outcome of the job in this video was operator error, these Brinly plows work awesome when set up correctly, and with mower deck off of tractor.
@@williamajthompson9166 Completely wrong what you said.
@@kevintomb this was a year ago. Been given a free DGS6500 with hydro gear 310-3000 series transmission. Way tougher than the faulty tuff torq though.
@@jeremydavis2595 My GT3000 has a Hydro Gear Transaxle 331-3000. How does that compare?
What a mess call that ploughing
This was 4 years ago, I have bought a farm tractor since.
Welcome to the pandemic folks....lol
This is not a garden tractor its not going to take much plowing to bust the powder pressed gears to hell,not made for what hes doin,he needs an older sears suburban for that kind of work great tractors and made for these types of hard work
What a mess
Your skipping to much
Look I’m a retired farmer. Instead throwing insults or outer useless shit at you. First thing we would have done if we were planting a new field covered with sod wold be to kill the grass. Round up or a similar herbicide. Good luck with your new garden nothing like fresh vegetables 🌽
So, you would have put poison down to kill the grass and then plant crops that you would eat? You can do that with some GMO crops but not if you're planting organic or heirloom.
@@RobertJohnson-th2yflol, was about to make the same comment
All you doing is making a mess
Thanks Chad, this was over 2 years ago, but it turned out just fine. Check some of my other videos and you will see the garden spot later on.
Chad Gronsten - get out of your Mother ‘s basement and get a life you dumbass!
you should have taken the sod off first.. then plowed.. You are pissing in the wind with that rig... lol
Thank you for your professional and polite response.
Plowing turns over the grass to kill it and put nutrition back into soil man have only been doing this for thousands of years
Next spring you would replow it then till it for planting
Painfull🤐
Kevin Works - so is looking at your wife!
garden tractors are just to small
Mari Vallen no actually there the perfect size for a garden, that’s kinda what there made for... hince the name “garden” tractor
Nice attachment
you really need some wheel weights or liquid ballast
