Rolling on Corn Planting in Iowa!!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- We're rolling on soybean & corn planting! I wanted to get some early beans in the ground in the week of April 11-14th, but didn't get a chance due to getting corn planted that week. Finally was able to get some beans in the ground after it dried up on April 17th. We had Kent out from Advanced Agrilytics, who's helping on the Agronomy & VR fertilizer, and seed side of stuff! Always get some good tips from him. Thanks for watching!

It's always a great day when the man his self posts a IRL video!
i know😄
Blow the fuel cap off with air before opening helps alot
I’m sitting here in south Florida rigging poles and study’s for finals and now I have an excuse to take a brake.
I’m north of you and just finished a round of golf.
@@peteparker7396 I play a little golf here and there but will be heading up to Leesburg in a few days for the state championship
I always keep a bag of gatorwipes in the cab with me, for my hands and for things like the fuel cap and dipstick if needed. They also are great for wiping off the ends of pioneer fittings as well!! I personally think you may need to look at the seal on the cap, or maybe check to see if the tank is venting ok.
I wish you posted to this channel more
Always enjoy the content Grant-don't get too discouraged over the challenges around planting no-till it is just a different beast. That residue and moisture that is a problem now will be a great benefit if and when the rain shuts off during the growing season. I have done things both ways and each system has its own specific challenges but keep trying and learning! Thats the spirit of the American farmer!
We have a farm in the UK running about 5 300hp JD 6R260’s and a bunch of other tractors, what we do is we pressure/power wash all the machinery every time they finish a field unless they are going back out so yes we do clean the fuel cap.
Lookin good Hilbert Bros can’t wait to see west happens this summer
Grant, where have you been? We need new videos!!
You should Invest in Precision Plantings “Delta Force” its ran of an air compressor that you mount on your planter. An air line runs to each row of the planter and you can adjust the down pressure of the row cleaners from the cab as your planting.
Filed prep is key to any successful planting and harvesting
love these videos, watched every single one over the past week between sleep and work and farm sim, can't wait for an update on all the Hilbert's farms
Always enjoy watching keep up the great work
Try a small plastic bag on the fuel neck and use a rubber band to hold it on.
Great video
A old sock works well!
The thing about being a farmer is making decisions about weather or not it’s to wet/muddy to get in the field. Videos have been very inspiring to help me become a first gen farmer. Keep up the good work!
Nice video Grant, glad to see you are coming along very well. As far as the dirt buildup on the fuel neck, you could buy a small cheap hand broom and put a string through the handle to just hang it around the fuel neck, that way it's always there for when you need to fuel. May want to check the o-ring on your fuel cap also.
Tip for the fuel cap getting dirty. If you carry pliers knock the dirt off cap with the pliers. Always have to do it when I refuel!
Or pickup a small handbrush at the hardware store.
@@stryker290 AND a small brush, Very cheap insurance to not have a very costly repair bill.
Put a glove or something like thatu can slip on an off sleeve they make one for exhaust that wood work keep up great work you two
Use a plastic bag and tape for the fuel tank cap.🧿👍
I love that adrenaline rush when your being chased by the rain
15:42 Blow off with air does the same before disconnecting hydraulic hoses
You should buy two hopper bottoms and a small dryer for right next to your shed for this fall to get better prices
Doesn't always work out. This year I would have been best off selling it all at harvest.
Ok but for the most part usually it's better to wait to sell
Love the video 📹
disposable shower caps have worked really well for me over that gas cap. Cheap and easy to have a bunch on hand in very little space.
Hilbert Farms would be a good name for your channel, senses you and your brother both are farming on it.
Hi Grant
You can either use rag to wipe dirt down, if your tractor has pneumatic, you can blow it using blow gun. You could also tie a plastic bag stopping dirt sitting on fuel cap👍
Get rid of that john deere planter monitor and get yourself a 20/20 seed sense monitor and put on down pressure sensors right away and you will and your confidence level in the planter will go up,its so much nicer
Great video
My corn in my garden was planted May 8th and its already an inch tall
Great job guys
It’s always good to get that off the fuel cap so you don’t get crap inside the tank what we do is every few times we fill up we just clean it off
Great to see you getting planting done.
I've been farming my hole life instead of lowering your trash wipers give the planter units more down pressure ane drive a little slower you will plant perfectly and your trenches aren't closing because it's a little to wet in beans you don't want your trash wipers digging remember that you have to combine this fall and you will have your header on the ground
Keep a rag @ your fuel tank & use it to clean off your fuel cap on the tractor or combine. Anytime it rains the rag will get a free wash lol. That's what I do.
I slowly take the cap off & tap it on something to get any other dirt off. As others have said, your fuel filters will catch anything else.
I always keep a good sturdy bristle brush to get that stuck dirt off of there
Squad I'm your biggest fan I've seen almost every single one of your videos
That ground that the stalks got burned off looked pretty dang good in comparison.
Take cap off carefully and tap it on the fill neck below where dust is stuck to it a few times each time u fuel until u can get it back to a power washer or hose or something...
When a second tractor shows up on the farm, I'd recommend an ATU 300 in the one pulling the planter. Much smoother than that 200
Love this stuff. That notification caught me off guard, so props to you for that one
Are we ever gonna get to see the rest of your planting and Spencer’s ?
Pioneer John skipped that part when he saw you wearing that Wyffels cap. 😂
We used to clamp a small plastic bag over the lid (using a small strap) when were harrowing or doing work that we knew would leave the tractor in a dusty mess. Probably smarter ways of doing it, but it worked for us.
I’m running my dreams through you
Love the text on the phone
I’ve seen people clean off the fuel cap to knock the dust off
I always bang the cap on the step if it has any dust.
Grant listen very helpful keep going. But for the fuel cap air hose works
most tractors/Ag equipment have a filter in the neck to keep the dirt out from the fuel tank, otherwise we just keep old rags or tshirts in the cab and wipe it off before fueling
Graint u can power wash the cap for the fuel
Hope planting is well good luck
Gotta have a rag handy to wipe off that gas cap. Keep one in your pocket or on the tractor.
Another sidenote: Corn before May 1 in central IA should not be over 2" deep. Depending on moisture and temps too.... takes a lot more energy (depending on growing variables again) Good luck and great video
Grant we need some more farming videos what the heck man?
Frl :/
My name is Jimmi you are my favorite RUclipsr I’ve been watching you since I was little
Great video again very informative I love your videos hope the best for your crop this year you sure put a lot of effort into getting it planned correctly be safe out there.
Blow the dirt of the cap with an air chuck before you open it
Before I fuel I clean it off as much as I can! 👍😎✅
Grant I have a cab cleaner brush to clean the cap but your cap is leaking fuel look at the gasket condition.
I have a screw driver in the tool box on my 8200 take it and tap on the cap with the handle of the screw driver when you get it off i clean it more
Start bagging that fuel fill cap/spout with a small canvas or heavy cotton bag or an old wool cap secure it some small rope.
Need to get a lowboy for the old army truck then you could haul the tractor to Spencer farm, lowboys are handy for many things
I am watch on the road went to the beach and now coming back
We finished planting 2k acres mid may.
a cheap Car wheel brush will knock that dust off the fuel cap and filler neck... better to knock it off when the cap is on.
My family has a farm of a mix of corn and soy beans (they switch it every year) they are a big case family tho even tho I wish it was John Deere. But they own about 3000 acres of farm land it’s a big farm has been a farm since 1890s I think. they also have a big map in their office which tells them where there corn/beans went
Can’t wait for a second tractor seems like ones needed. Maybe a John Deere 4755 it has about the same HP as the 8110
Love the video
East bound and down load it up and truck it were great going to what they can’t say be done
I always keep a rag with me and I clean off all the dirt away from the fuel cap.... Any place you don't want dirt or take a chance for dirt to get into... Keep a rag in the tractor for cleaning... Because why take chances...
I clean it off when we fill them up it looks better anyway
I always cleaned the caps off
We never clean the caps man, never had an issue, it all gets cleaned when they get power washed
Make a leather sock cover with a bungee for that fuel cap. S!
Lookin good
If I’m facing refueling, was a fuel cap that Scott a bunch of dirt in the salon, and I will wear gloves and clean that thing a Office best as I can, so that minimize the risk of falling into the fuel
Nice video
Grant when is you game coming out I can’t wait I’ve been a fan since 1000 subs
Hey grant you should of came in with the ripper to clear the stalks and break up the soil
My grandpa always said to wait till May no matter what. 1:30
I always carry an old shirt in the tractor and wipe off the dirt around the fuel cap. Don’t chance it.
Little dirt doesn’t hurt
The seeds look like jelly beans lol
I LOVE YOU GRANT !!!!!!! You are my fav youtuber, I like, and turn on all notifications, subscribed, and comment on all vids. By the way when is, "American Farming" coming out?
Keep a rag wrapped around the fuel fill.
That auto steer beep sure made me jump to check mine! Typical farmer watching farm videos
Tap the lid on the steps of the tractor.
Sometimes you are better off not checking behind the planter...
I’m Marvin my wife has been working on the farm she loves it.
It's funny you mentioned that you should change the name to Hilbert Farms cause that's what I used to search Spencer's channel but it brought up Squad Farms y'alls gaming channel. I like the sound of Hilbert Farms.
Growing up on a farm in the northwestern corner of Iowa, and now living in Urbandale, I’ve been wondering where your farming operation is?
Also 5:59 I don’t think you are supposed to taste test that
Grant farms near Montezuma
no till is better because it helps keep moister in the ground were if you till the ground will become dry
My dad and unclemusemto own a 12 row planter but then we got a 24 row kinze planter
You should try and find a field roller to use for a little bit
Super newbie here!! So if the burned acres are going to produce better than the non burned acres, why not burn the fields every fall/winter?? In my first 6 months owning part of a couple farms in Central Illinois and am 50/50 with my tenant and hoping to plant 111 day corn tomorrow. Thank goodness I have an awesome tenant helping me learn. 😊
Burning is a win loose situation soil will warm up quickly but you loose valuable nutrients that you have to spend money on to replace it can be a good tool in grass land to get rid of weeds without chemicals
20 years ago here in North Louisiana seemed like corn farmers were always burning their fields late winter . But almost never now ? I often wondered if the state EPA stopped them or the Feds ?
just a thought. Have you heard of AEA? They have excellent products to digest some of that corn residue in the fall.

I feel like the rental man buck tried to sabotage the feeder tube on your seed cart.....😂😂
What happened? No update in 4 months. I’m curious to see how the crops are doing
Ikr !! He posted on insta gram thag all his beans are done and he is now on corn but how is he not gonna post a yt vedio for us
Hey, when are you going to do another video?
Tube sock over the fuel cap and neck
I live in the Netherlands and im looking it at 0:30 am
We use the 18 volt Milwaukee vacuum to remove the dust and crud and make sure you wipe off all the fuel and/or fuel oil after filling the tank. If fuel oil is coming from cap vent when tractor is moving, the vent is defective and may to be replaced?
