Its a life goal of mine to be more of the optimistic mindset, after more than a decade of looking at the glass half empty it was pointed out to me how miserable it felt. It wasnt easy or overnight, but i found little joys, even if many would consider this "work", watching things grow with your hand involved is very therapeutic.
its a priority for myself aswell, i have since this posting addressed that, behind the dash/gauge panel was a big ole rats nest (literally). and that was why a handful of gauges aswell as the ignition did not work at the time of filming. however, i did get the tractor for free, so I was not about to complain to much about the lack of maintenance or the broken things of the last 15 years of it not being used. that story will be in the next clip of tractor play.
6:20 Your plows are out of adjustment…they need to be shifted more over to the right side of the tractor so the first furrow covers the rut left by the last furrow…
a 7 or bigger would be fantastic, i just havent managed to get my hands on one yet, the entire "field project" is more of a hobby than a career so it is very budget focused and a 4 bottom was readily and cheaply available, upgrades will have to be slowly aquired over time.
Remember if you learned something it was a teaching lesson if you keep doing it over and over then it becomes a mistake😆 nobody wakes up and knows how to do everything.
nah, just took a little extra time to level out, but i have already sorted that out, the damage took about one week to fix. not nearly as bad as one would have expected.
Your plow bottoms are too narrow for the width of the tires , you could try and offset your plow but you need 18's or better for those wide tires . You are compacting your ground and that ain't good. Harrow in the direction that you plow ,go diagonal last with a drag then plant, never herd a disc harrow called a finish harrow ,that's all we used, 90%of the time, we had a spring tooth ,hard to transport
Good on you for a good attitude and working on getting the field looking the way you need it.

Good outlook on life. Keep hammering down you will get it lined out. Thanks for sharing.
thank you, i appreciate your energy. :)
That starter issue would be a priority fix for me vs standing in front of that big fat tire.

Disc in the same direction you plowed on the first pass that chops it up a lot better and it is so much smoother riding
at this point ive disced about every direction lol
I thought you were making raised vegetable beds
I thought about putting potatoes in, but I smoothed it off for winter rye

in a humorous way, since the time of this posting, ive learned everything is out of adjustment.
You need at least a 7 bottom plow behind that tractor or you're just gonna have a mess.

Yeah looks like a rough plowing but like they say 100 years from now nobody will know😆
freely i will admit i had absolutely no idea what i was doing, however, I feel I've learned a whole bunch really quickly

you can put a country boy in the city,but you cant put a city boy in the country,
that would be hilarious, however call it hobby. never lived near a city, just also never had the opportunity before to do "country things"
I'm at your mom's house and she told you to stop trolling and get your own ass back home to the city
If you haven't figured what went wrong I can't won't help you
The mess is made will likely take 5 or 6 years to to repair damage done

I would be ashamed of the job of plowing you show.
you missed the point then, your first time doing something is never perfect.
