Well phil I find with a sod like that if you roll it ahead of the grass Harrow is does a super job Just barely have the tines tipping the ground Roll behind the Harrow then No sods dragged and good firm seed bed
Great video and nice to hear liv , We put in multi species grass recently it had 1 kg of red and 1 kg of white clover in it as well as chicory and plantain with 3 variety’s of rye grass
We’ve got one field of red clover under stewardship, has been a pain because we weren’t allowed to mow it until late october or so, and it had completely taken over by then
They prefer white clover as red clover corollas are too deep but if it's cut early the second flush will not have deep corollas also it crystallises so needs to be extracted after capping. I thought clover caused bloat in cattle/ cows
Will have to watch to night love Farmer Phil and have been reading all the the lovely comments about liv thought she would make a good farmer keeping you all in order.We have shamrock ☘️ and clover 🍀 in our lawn to bring us luck and reminds of Ireland wish we were back there.Good luck with what you are doing.Best wishes to you all.We’ve had plenty of rain 🌧 since we have been back.Going to look forward to watching while we have our tea. 🌞🌞🌞🌞🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲
Would personally prefer to ring roll before setting, and then flat roll afterwards so as the tiny clover seeds don't get lost, ie. buried too deep. But ye got away with it, so well done!
Good job folks, what do ye intend to do with it cut or graze? With the high cost of fertiliser it should be on every farm. I had 4 acre of it straight stand only cut and baled it cows loved it and it worked well.
I use a fiona drill with the grass seed settings sown shallow and we just ring roll it afterwards works perfectly every time. Works OK with spinner but its not as accurate!
This will be great to see how this goes. I would love to see how the stitching with the grass harrow works out. I always sowed grass seed with a Vicon, but I only put in an acre bag at a time as I was afraid the clover seed would go to the bottom with the vibration
@@Dave-jm5yo ditto on the wag tail, i had golf course customer who made a very expensive greens seeder demo/sales goon a week later look silly with the banding you describe.
@@tc6573 18 on mine, it's the size that a half inch copper pipe will fit in the openings.I just drive a little wider than the width of the tractor apart.
Grew milvius and merviot varieties of red clover,tremendous crops,very heavy in first 2 cuts then 3rd and 4th were lighter. Mixed it with cocksfoot grass,not sure if that'd work where you are in Longford but when clover was gone after 3 years the cocksfoot continued well after. Don't graze red clover,it gets too damaged. Why spray it? I never did and lost nothing, when well established it'll storm off.
Back in the year 0000 we tried growing red clover. Nothing came up. I took some home and tried to raise it carefully in the garden and, nothing. Cost a lot as well.
The big contractors (current trend) are to charge by "feed value/silage value" tonnage. Samples are taken of the silage harvest and sent off to a lab for calculations done where the moisture and dry matter content are used to calculate the silage value. Using acre or tonnage harvested pricing doesn't take into account the actual silage/feed value of the crop harvested.
Great job Phil and especially Liv, looking forward to seeing the results. Did you get the rad sorted in the 135? Also,who's Derek? Surely you mean father Phil Liv 😉😂
Not a great job to sow clover with a spinner because the clover seeds go to the bottom of the hopper..... if you are only put a small amount of seed in at a time and keep it mixed up
Good job Liv with the conclusion, Phil would be lost without you 😂
Well done Liv I know you're a bit shy but you have it 👍👍
The 35 is tipping along nicely🤠
Well phil
I find with a sod like that if you roll it ahead of the grass Harrow is does a super job
Just barely have the tines tipping the ground
Roll behind the Harrow then
No sods dragged and good firm seed bed
well done Liv keeping the show on the road
It was lovely to hear liv at the end of the video liv did a great job 👏.Good luck.🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
135 is fully done. She's on the button. Apart from wiper and front window wash and shine. Two min later 😂😂😂😂

Good luck liv
Great vid Phil. Great
out-tro Liv! Well done. Great teamwork💪
Great Job Liv , mighty finish
Great video and nice to hear liv , We put in multi species grass recently it had 1 kg of red and 1 kg of white clover in it as well as chicory and plantain with 3 variety’s of rye grass
MORE Liv cam, please and tell Derek he drives a mean tractor 😉
Great video Phil the 35 is as sweet as a nut lovely tractor

You need an air seeder for the lemken bud . Great for cover crops and all too
Well done liv.
Bees will love the clover Phil

Well done Liv you're a natural 👍wot you reckon Phil 👍
Excellent video as always hope you get the 135 sorted.

Good job Phil, the 62 sounded well on the power harrow, great video as usual
You almost weld a marker in that spreader 😉😀😀

Ur dead right. The clover seed is heavier and will drop to the bottom. The wag tail has a superior spread pattern. Spinners tend to leave it in bands.
@@Dave-jm5yo ditto on the wag tail, i had golf course customer who made a very expensive greens seeder demo/sales goon a week later look silly with the banding you describe.
What settings do you use for sowing grass seed with the vicon wagtail?
I seen it done that way & there is always a good hit of grass!

Great videos, grand mix of topics of interest.. ye need a full time mechanic and tidy upper😉
Like the vintage aircon of the 135
Could you do an update on the red clover at this stage Phil?!
P45 Phil Liv may take over😉😉
great vid
Brilliant video again, has your brother got more of an interest in the farm now as i remember you saying he had no interest farming
Great video as always keep up the amazing work and videos Phil and liv
when will we see some silage videos they are my favourite videos
Busy days for sure :) How's the 1200 doing? :)
Good luck with it
Would you not use the seeder faster and a better finch

I have a question first good vid when ye do silage for the customer do ye charge by the hour or acres
It’s by acre
The big contractors (current trend) are to charge by "feed value/silage value" tonnage. Samples are taken of the silage harvest and sent off to a lab for calculations done where the moisture and dry matter content are used to calculate the silage value. Using acre or tonnage harvested pricing doesn't take into account the actual silage/feed value of the crop harvested.

@@OOpSjm just ain’t is it 😂
@@gregshearer423 What?
Bate on Liv….👍🏻
Great video Phil interesting to see how it will get on. Is that red clover can that be grazed or is it for mowing or some sort
It can be grazed early in the year or late but have to be mindful of bloat but it’s mainly for silage
@@FARMERPHIL3690 ah I see that go for bales or pit
Still working hard and living sober
When’s the first cut vid coming out phil
Sunday
Great job Phil and especially Liv, looking forward to seeing the results.
Did you get the rad sorted in the 135?
Also,who's Derek? Surely you mean father Phil Liv 😉😂
I’ve a new one got but haven’t it fitted yet
Evening
Evening!
Takes a good woman to finish what a man starts.... Go on Liv
🚜🚜🚜😎😎😎👍
Was that a 'For Sale' or 'Sold' sign you picked up at the start of the video?! Is it new land 🙂
It’s a sale sign for a site on the rented ground
@@FARMERPHIL3690 good time to be selling a site. They're going for mad money around us.
😀💗🇮🇪
Do you bale it?
Yes that’s the plan
