    We have a bell for the ferguson planter Phil. Everytime it dings you drop a spud. Still works after all these years. Fair play lad👍

    Reminds me of planting spuds with uncle years ago behind Dexter tractorHe had bell but if it broke would still keep to rythem even while sleeping for nights after Dropping spuds in spring,hay for summer and gathering on a frosty Saturday in autumn Great days young people today will never see but we're so rewarding

    My father put trailer loads of seaweed on the garden and plowed it in. (it was hilarious to watch the jumping shrimps when it rained), but the following years crop was bumper. Tatty's like bowling balls.

    Oh man that reminds me of years gone by. Back in the eighties we used to plant two or three acres every year with a wee fergie planter similar to yours.
    Keep safe and keep plugging on lad.

  • @bigal2312
    @bigal2312 4 года назад +2

    Every young fellow needs a 35 to learn to drive straight, I was using the drill plough and planting scallions with a turnip barrow in a Massey 35 from 7 years old, having sat beside my Da in the tractor for 100s of hours from about 2 years old. Not something you'd get away with these days, but probably where I was happiest in my whole life. I jumped at the chance to be with my Da in a tractor, even in prefer to going to the seaside.
    Can't say it was the same when weeding scallions or pulling sprouts I have to say.
