Grant, you have to change 1/2 of your closing wheels or the planter or will pull to the right or left. Put the right wheel forward on 6 and the left wheel forward on the other 6 same with intermeshing row cleaners. Make sure that they are 50/50 left/right leading wheels. Hope this helps
We also run row cruisers but they are aligned on centers. Get even closing pressure that way. Our local Precision dealer said to run the closing wheels centered but offset the row cleaners 6 and 6.
Running sprayers is tough since you are moving faster and have a lot more motion with the long booms. My first time running a little spray coupe, I sent a boom into the dirt. Broke 3 nozzles and a couple hose connections and that became my learning experience right there. Glad it wasn't anything too serious and that you had a patient helping hand!
Grant love the videos keep great contact content It is going to be interesting to see how well the crops grow on your new land that you got hopefully, you have a great crop season this year.
Hopefully all is well for you guys after the tornadoes in Iowa.We had some in Nebraska we haven’t really done anything with corn yet either. Love the videos up 👍
borrow your brothers camera. So technically he can be with you on the first day of planting How incredible and thoughtful. This season of hilbert farms is going to be incredible. Omg
Definitely worth reading a bit into mixing orders for chemicals, particularly glyphosate when used in conjunction with 24D - It's recommended not to add glyphosate until the very very last moment of filling the tank. Hard to tell with the cut, but it looks like your adjuvants and chemicals were poured into the hopper directly on top of each other? This is an absolute no no and will definitely lead to a less effective brew.
You know what would be awesome? I’d like to watch you go turkey hunting. Don’t know if you do any but that would be awesome. Love the vids man keep them going:)
Sometimes they pull a certain direction if your hydraulic hoses have different amounts of pressure so one side may be getting pushed down harder than the other
If your row cleaners are all staggered to the left it will pull the planter to that direction when they are aggressive… they need to be driving towards the center…
Hey grant I jsut typed a comment I jsut want to say thank you I’ve been watching you for a very long time and you got me through a lot so thank you grant
Do you still have some ground near your machine shed you just sold? Or is everything sold and transferred over? How many acres are you planting this year compared to last year?
Love the videos grant i like watching you advanceing in your farm great job i hope it all keeps working for you guys 👍 just curious do you have any thoughts on your next tractor like maybe a 4755 😂
My grand kids say that you need to shave, they say beards are for winter not summer, I'm neutral on this one , but I can say yor channel is great 😊😊😊😊😊
Hey Grant, I was wondering how your yield is planting soybeans on 30 inch rows. Do you think 15 inch rows would have any advantage in your area? We currently still drill, but looking at going to a split row planter.
Hey grant, what are you thinking on getting for another tractor? Do you have one set out or do you want us to make suggestions? If so, I would say Get somewhere around a 7830 and a 8330, but the thing is I don’t know your budget
I’ve got 2 water tank setups for sale if you’re in the market. One 1600 gallon black tank on a flat rack and a 1600 gallon setup on a skid loader trailer make you a deal on either of them located Webb Iowa
What amazes me is all the chemicals the farmers spray to kill the weeds but there's always weeds you would think the weeds would be gone after years and years of spraying for weeds
Between Spencer and I we have 270 Acres. One farm is about 90 miles away so I'm having it Custom Farmed this year until it sells and I can trade it for land closer.
Would like to say is nice to see veteran farmers helping new farmers
Def!! Helpful to be around people who know what they're doing!
Mark is a pretty awesome neighbor.
O yea
It's a blessing you have good neighbors
one of the few channels i click on instantly when a new video comes out 👍
I appreciate it!
The one thing I know about farming is you are a mechanic who occasionally does some planting and harvesting 😂
Grant, you have to change 1/2 of your closing wheels or the planter or will pull to the right or left. Put the right wheel forward on 6 and the left wheel forward on the other 6 same with intermeshing row cleaners. Make sure that they are 50/50 left/right leading wheels. Hope this helps
We do that with our row cleaners but never our closing wheels
@strandedkansan8367 we do it because we run spiked copperhead closing wheels, they create more drag than a traditional round rubber
We also run row cruisers but they are aligned on centers. Get even closing pressure that way. Our local Precision dealer said to run the closing wheels centered but offset the row cleaners 6 and 6.
Hey grant can you make a map of all your land cause it is quite confusing where it is
This is something I probably should do to explain a bit better!
@@granthilbert5632 and maybe add it also In kilometers like when editing for the European watcher love your content btw
@@user-ei5nm5ov9gthat would be cool but would be a bit of a hassle
Make an fs map too 😜
That would be a pretty good map for 22 but it would get confuseing sometimes and plus you would need a good creater to make it, but that would be cool
So glad to see your spring video I hope you have a fantastic planning season Be safe Take your time
It's great to see you learning and teaching us through this process.😄
Looks like you have an awesome helpful neighbor! Always good to have someone for advice
Watching your small farming operation reminds me of the farming I grew up around and is a part of today look forward to seeing you grow your operation
It was very informative and enjoyable to watch. Thank you for all your hard work.👌✌👍
Add a couple of those gauge wheels at your last knuckle. It saves me on hilly ground.
I am sure you can't wait to your brother getting leg healthy again. May his rehab go well.
He’s a tough goat. He will be back in shape in no time.

Gosh, I love how your farm has grown over the years. Keep up the good work, man. ❤
Great video -I really appreciate the way you show the good and the bad very informative-thank you and work on young man.
Love Mark's barn,that cupola is amazing!
If the left cylinder is threaded (can't see it),you maybe able to adjust it for length.
Grant love the videos keep great contact content It is going to be interesting to see how well the crops grow on your new land that you got hopefully, you have a great crop season this year.

Keep up the great work Grant
Its nice you have good people to help you out!
Add a narrow ring around the cylinder rod to prevent it from retracting all the way and lifting the boom over the cradle
So entertaining to watch. Been watching you guys for a long time. Be cool to come down by you guys one time
I love planting videos!
Grant you are inspiring me to start farming and helping me know what to do thanks!
Great video enjoy watching keep up the hard work
You and millennial farmer are the two channels I always watch and enjoy keep it up grant 👍
If your closing wheels are all offset the same direction in can cause drift
Normally left half is offset opposite to the right half
what kind of tractor are you thinking to get for next year?
Weld a little taller bracket on the left side, then paint it

You're almost an expert now. Good luck this season!
I love your videos Grant
I AM HERE, HI GRANT, MY NAMES GRANT TOO!!!!!!
You should get a John Deere 7810 front wheel assist tractor one of the best tractors John Deere ever made
Love the vids man!!!
If your row cleaners are all staggered to the left it will pull the planter to that direction when they are aggressive… they need to be driving towards the center…
Love the video’s grant keep up the great work man
Hi grant love the content I was wondering if u have ever looked into splitter planters so u don’t have to plant your beans on 30 inch rows?
can'y wait for your next video to come out
Our 1760 was doing the same thing this spring!
again, as always I love your videos!In case you buy another tractor, which one would you get´?thank you!
I love the videos Grant. Keep it up man good job
I’d love it if you and Spencer would make a map mod for all consoles and pc to play on fs22. Great video Grant.
Do a video of your new farm and a a farm tour
just like farming simulator.... Best of luck this season
Hey grant I jsut typed a comment I jsut want to say thank you I’ve been watching you for a very long time and you got me through a lot so thank you grant
The next time you pick up a new farm could you make a video showing how you map your gps? I’ve always wondered how that is accomplished.
Tractor rules
#1 rule stay safe
#2 rule - have a ton of shear Bolts/ pins in your toolbox
Here in the netherlands farming is very different
if there was a map like this on farm sim other than umrv it would be so good
Do you still have some ground near your machine shed you just sold? Or is everything sold and transferred over? How many acres are you planting this year compared to last year?
My dad uses his row cleaners that aggressive too
I found you through an Achieve 3000 article out of all places
Love the videos grant i like watching you advanceing in your farm great job i hope it all keeps working for you guys 👍 just curious do you have any thoughts on your next tractor like maybe a 4755 😂
Nice video
You guys should make a farming simulator map of your fields.
U should get a 8400 tractor for the tile plow
You could get a 8020 or 8030 series. Loved the vid!
Zabardast
My grand kids say that you need to shave, they say beards are for winter not summer, I'm neutral on this one , but I can say yor channel is great 😊😊😊😊😊
Hey grant 2 things when you will be able to get them get front duals for 8110 and get a 7810 with front loader
Nice video your next tractor needs to be a 4440 or 4640
What camera away?
What kind of tractor will you get nut
Go buy a little 6r or 7800 for the sprayer
Love and channel . Like the rock joke!
Great farmer 👍
Hey Grant, I was wondering how your yield is planting soybeans on 30 inch rows. Do you think 15 inch rows would have any advantage in your area? We currently still drill, but looking at going to a split row planter.
How is the weather where you at because in Minnesota we can’t plant because of the rain
On one of your videos you have been pulled over in my home town
Grant Hilbert, more like G.o.a.t Hilbert! (Also good video 👍)
Why is no till better than tilling grant?
Conserves moisture and less weed seed germination
Hey grant, what are you thinking on getting for another tractor? Do you have one set out or do you want us to make suggestions? If so, I would say Get somewhere around a 7830 and a 8330, but the thing is I don’t know your budget

Just a question when are you planning on building a pole barn where you are now?
What amazes me is all the chemicals the farmers spray to kill the weeds but there's always weeds you would think the weeds would be gone after years and years of spraying for weeds
Hey Grant how many total acres do you have?
Between Spencer and I we have 270 Acres. One farm is about 90 miles away so I'm having it Custom Farmed this year until it sells and I can trade it for land closer.
I think why it pulling is because the tongue is loose and the left is going deeper than the right side
what were you guys spraying to kill the weeds
What part of Iowa do you live in
Do think a 8310 or something like that would Be a great buy
Was hoping for something bigger possibly. An 8310 would work great just need a lil more weight for a tile plow.
@granthilbert5632 could go with 8410 maybe
@@Blackwellll3066 literally the same tractor with a little bit more horsepower. He's gonna need a 4wd
@thomasbritten7216 yea but 8410 great tractor is they going to buy one....a 4wd tractor nice to have I could see them buying a 8640
@@Blackwellll3066 stick to farm sim videos
Whats your next tractor..pls respond ❤
Pls respond
How much rain have you guys had recently. Up in eastern Nebraska we have had 4 inches
Hey random question for you! What microphone do you use on your camera?
Yo Grant, when you get a new tractor what are you thinking of getting?
Who else loves Grant Hilbert?
Me
You should make a series of your irl farm in fs22
How are you and spencer?
Just curious do the tail lights work on both the tractor and the planter
For the next tractor, can it be red
What brand of GPS do you use in the 8110
Lots of corn stalks on the field yet that did not break down
You're keeping the 8110 right?
