We still use the transplanter. In fact we used it entirely this spring. We had to get a newer tractor and it can gear down and move slower.. there's a video. "Planting 10,000 Onions"
Oy vey 4,000 onions ??? !! OK - so at the beginning of this video, is that a great pyr I see in the background ??? :) :) Never mind - I just saw a close up ... we have 3.5 pyrs :)
Two Family Homestead This is only a fraction of the amount of onions that we used to plant. it's a tough job. the dog's name is Polar Bear. He's still only a puppy. We love him!
I'm really enjoying these videos on planting with plastic.
growing is plastic had been a good deal for us. We use the photo and biodegradable kind.
That's a lot of onions! I only planted about 40 for my family! Good luck with the harvest!
We sell produce at a Farmers market. That's why we have so many. Thanks for visiting us! Hope you come again!
Fantastic video!! The right tools make a tedious job, better. :-)
Sullivan Family Homestead Thank you! I'll watch several of your videos
Just a novice question after harvesting onions, do you replant second set of onions on the same mulching sheets?
Wonderful and awesome
+Lakshmi Kumar thank you! Its just around the corner that we will be planting onions for 2018. Have a happy New Year! - Janette
Where did you get that water wheel from?
Why do you leave a space in the middle of the rows?
What do you use now to punch hole in the plastic since you no longer use the transplanter with the water wheel?

What was the name of the company that sold you the seed transplants?
The pinion company is Dixsondale. They are in Texas. It's a huge company and you should be able to find it online
A rain-flo water wheel on some other brand transplanter?
Nice 😍😍
get you a stand and plant you'll go three times faster
