Rocks SUCK!!!! That’s why it needs to be in game. IRL you break a shank or eat one in the combine it could cost you hours or days to get right again. I wish Giants would model break downs that makes the equipment unusable until repaired and, of course, it happens Saturday evening when you can’t get parts till Monday morning. UGH!! (Evil grin)
True, but for me rocks are just too much of a tedium from real farming life that I don't want in my game. Possibly because there is no really good way to dispose of them in game.
At the point your using the stone picker no the tractor wont damage the field as you would not be collecting stones after seeding/planting so there would be no crop growth.
I love the rocks (once they get the implements / field mask issues sorted at least). It adds a nice bit of work and planning variety when you swap between cultivation and periodic plowing.
So if I have a stone picker that’s full is there a conveyor or belt I can just dump them onto that will go into a trailer, instead of using a bucket to load a trailer?
To be honest I turned off stones a long time ago as they updated the game and from that point I felt stones spawned to frequently on the fields making the process unenjoyable.
@@FarmerKlein I might ditch the idea just never used conveyors was trying to get into it and stones seemed a possible option to use kinda quickly and occasionally. I think I’m just gonna have to get a full load in a stone picker take it to the shop and buy a couple different belts and see if anything works if not I’ll just turn it back off
I got a small field that I picked up rocks on and then I used a roller like in this video. However, when I look at the map it still says my field needs rolling. Is it bugged? I think I used the cultivator and then the roller, after that I fertilized and planted grass there.
My rock collector and my roller won’t get rid of the rocks.. I tried rolling and I tried the most expensive rock collector and they still wouldn’t work. The field said it needed rolling but the rocks wouldn’t disappear. Any ideas why?
Did you try before seeding/planting? I no longer do rock collection as I feel there are way to many that spawn but I think that rock collection only works if the field is in a plowed or cultivated state
I have a question It shows that there is a limit between makes total rations hey and grass what would be a reasonable amount so it is level out between those three
If your talking about cows you feed the best food source you can. Cows will only eat one of the sources. IF you add grass they will eat grass till you add hay. If you add hay they will no longer eat grass until the hay is empty. If you feed TMR they will only eat TMR until it is empty.
I can't understand the difference of calcuvate vs seedbed. Seedbed I think is the best but if use for example plow - roller I take seedbed , if use plow - roller - stone picker I take cultivating. What is the fastest way for seedbed with stone picker ???
My question is: is there a finite amount of stone in a field(ie: after several seasons of picking stone you remove all of the stones for ever), or does a new crop of stones grow every season (ie: you will never get rid of all the stones)?
@@jackofall2305 IRL frost and thaw is roughly to the same depth in an area, so I would think that eventually all the stones it can affect would come to the surface to be removed. But I'm sure to a farmer it seems there is no end to the cycle. In game, I would assume an infinite supply.
One thing that I discovered purely by accident. If you cultivate a field, then spray lime before you pick up the stones, then you cannot pick them up. Once they're covered in lime, they're there until after you harvest!
i’m confused, i rolled my field and some rocks didn’t get picked up, then i went over them with 2 different types of stone pickers and they are still there, no one gives me help, does anyone know why this happens
No one seems to be able to answer this. If you want to do stubble tillage, you can't pick up stones without destroying the seedbed, since every stone picker turns the field into a cultivated state. So far it seems the only real option you have is to go with it one year and next year have no stones at all anymore, if stubble tillage really does not pull up any stones. Or do i miss something here? Is there a way to get those stones i freshly bought from a neglectful NPC (god damn i want stone picking contracts finally...) and have stubble tillage set for precision farming? I can't drive with the shallow cultivator over the stone pickers cutlivated field agian, since then it just turns into a "seedbed". Neither stubble tillage nor cutltivated. Or does seedbed count as stubble tillage?
@@Derethevil bonus money is related to enviormental score which has nothing to do with seedbed state. shallow cultivator or power harrow no stones to collect then seed or direct seed/plant post harvest to max out the tillage score.
@@FarmerKlein That still doesn't answer my question though. You buy a field from a NPC later on and it is riddled with large stones. Obviously i want them out of my field. So there is no way to collect them and get the stubble tillage the first year, since stone picking puts the field into a cultivated state or seedbed state if you try to use the shallow cultivator again. Means only next year, when i finished harvesting, i go into it with my shallow cultivator and then do not have to collect stones, since the shallow cultivator doesn't bring them up.
I’ve noticed sometime when you skip a month it says that there is high demand at your rock crusher, what does that mean and can I make more money off of it?
I got the Tip Anywhere mod and dumped them in my neighbors yard. When he got mad I told him Farmer Klein said I could. ROFL. Still looking for a stone storage though...
@@Bendigo1 real repair at new vehicle at 6 month is not over 5000-10000 like the game and the reason I have tractor for 40 years old is this . With the game mechanics of use regular service at 3 years can take a new medium tractor 🚜
But the store collectors need a bigger capacity, or else you have to use a worker to pull it, but then you lose the stones when it reaches 100%.. Everytaftet 100% are lost..
Thankws for explainging this to me. I also watched your video about plowing and thank you for explaining that. I forgot to like that video but I will go back to like. You earned a new sub and I would love to learn what benefits and cons for using the different types of machines to fertilize your feilds.
Hi, just wanted to point out that the capacity that is shown with m3 is called "cubic meters" and not "liters". Eg. The Rock King 9600 has a capacity of 3.8 cubic meters. This is essentially the volume of 3.8 blocks that is 1meter wide, 1meter long, and 1meter tall. I hope this makes sense, and i hope it helps.
cubic meter and liter both are units of volume. we are talking about volume. 1m3 is same as 1000 liters. so you are pointing in wrong direction mate! btw your example make no sense as block is not an unit of volume. 3.8 cubic meters is same as 3800 liters in term of volume. (1 cubic meter block is 1meter wide, 1meter long, and 1meter tall.) "I hope this makes sense, and i hope it helps."
I feel like this game could have done a better job at telling us things. Like being able to pick up the rocks, thats great. But what if i dont? What happens then? The subreddit for this game is dead, there is little info online and the tutorial in game doesnt tell you 99% of the game
OMG I didn't want to like this video because I was like number 666.. but I'm not religious so I don't actually care that much.. the video is informative. So there.
They implemented rocks haphazardly.. You would never drive up and down a field picking up endless rocks with the likes of a dangelman, there purely for large rocks that would be one offs in a field.. The Ehlo is a specialty rock picker for usually contractor work, shitty fields that are being leased or repurposed for farm land.. When rocks come up in a field there here and there and usually can be simply rolled back in and the big ones picked with a front loader bucket.. The game has put rocks in the field like there popcorn.. Wayyy over done..
ya, but I feel its part of the gamification. In the game for a hired helper to pickup rocks they have to be somewhat covering the field. Early on the rocks where less abundant but then an update happened to make them excessive as you have pointed out. I turn stones off in the settings now as a result.
@@FarmerKlein Im the same.. I wanted to leave it on, but it got so overdone that it became the worst part of field prep, It should have been, rocks come up and the roller knocks down 90%of them,then you can either use a stone bucket on a loader of choice or the rock picker and spend a couple of minutes clearing the rest.. As it stands, the rollers are completely pointless as there are so many rocks, your going to have to drive up and down the whole field to clear it anyways..

Please don’t ever stop with these videos. By far the most helpful channel…appreciate your help man!
The game is becoming more real than i thought it could be, when you work your fields you will get rocks
Except giants goes a little overboard. Not every field ends up like a gravel road after every tillage
@@sgtstedanko7186 and eventually there wont be as many rocks to dig up.
You can overload the rocks to a trailer if you back the stone picker up to it.
You can also dump them into a pile and use a loader to load them into a trailer later if you want.

I know that the 5.5m Rock picker also cultivates uncultivated land
I think they all do
So I have the 1st stone picker as iv only just started so the tractor tracks damage the field ?
At the point your using the stone picker no the tractor wont damage the field as you would not be collecting stones after seeding/planting so there would be no crop growth.
I love the rocks (once they get the implements / field mask issues sorted at least). It adds a nice bit of work and planning variety when you swap between cultivation and periodic plowing.
It gets boring after doing it for the tenth time

The need rolling would be resolved if you rolle after seeding.
Can u get stones out of field that has a crop in it the 550 stone picker not picking up
Fairly sure once you have a crop in the field your stuck with stones until post harvest. Any removal process would likely destroy the crop.
Have question
Do i have to use roller after cultivation or no problem using it after harvesting right away.?
I cant sign AI worker though why ?
My rock collector and my roller won’t get rid of the rocks.. I tried rolling and I tried the most expensive rock collector and they still wouldn’t work. The field said it needed rolling but the rocks wouldn’t disappear. Any ideas why?

I suspect stones will continue to spawn for as many times as you do the corresponding fieldwork that causes them to spawn.
Through frost and thaw cycles stones find there way up to the surface. Theres really no end to stones in fields

What is an idea of where to store them until December?
Do you have to pick up rocks before planting crop, because my rock collector doesn't work
No you dont need to pickup rocks. if you do not the damage rate will increase on your equipment a bit.
Quick quesrion about it , is there a way to pick up rocks that you unloaded?
As in rocks you dump on the ground? ya a bucket or belt would pick them back up.
@FarmerKlein OK, thanks
One thing that I discovered purely by accident. If you cultivate a field, then spray lime before you pick up the stones, then you cannot pick them up. Once they're covered in lime, they're there until after you harvest!
That is funny. Kine is the glue that binds them to the earth. If yiu have not reported this to giants I would suggest it.
So very helpful! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!

I disabled stones long ago
How do I dump them in a pile on my property??
I collect them in Piles to pick up later when I got enough worth selling..
I would like to quarry you about that method. I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place here.
@@TacticsTechniquesandProcedures yes, inquiring minds want to know how you pick them up if you've dumped them out.
@@TacticsTechniquesandProcedures Use a front loader to dump into a trailer, then take them to the crusher.

I did a video around maximizing yield and the rolling benifit is post seeding vs before. I wouldnt worry about the seedbed state.

Faurly sure I used a bucket on a tele to pickup the pile i left once.
@@FarmerKlein oh,ill have to try multiple buckets then,thanks
can I pull the rock collectors with tellanders or wheel loaders, farmer Klein?
I have no idea.
Is the stone Crusher part of the base game or a mod
everything in these how to videos are base game items.
Thank you @@FarmerKlein
Great video. although I still think the rate of which vehicles wear down and the cost to repair them needs to be significantly lowered.
Why? This is supposed to be a farming simulator. Real repair is not cheap.

Just weeds, easier to deal with.
Good video, waiting for the results now with the rocks.
But the store collectors need a bigger capacity, or else you have to use a worker to pull it, but then you lose the stones when it reaches 100%.. Everytaftet 100% are lost..

for me, the scorpion stone picker did not pick up the small stones, i was hoping he would test that but oh well..
The Ehlo stone picker cleared the field when I did the stone planting test so it collected large and small stones.
Great video do you think they will add something so we can do more with the rocks
I plowed, Then stone picked then cultivated and I got more stone lol I imagine stone pick also cultivates?
We're do the rocks go when your workers full.
You can tip them into trailers also
