Been farming for 25+ years. That shit can get nasty if you’re not careful. Love the drone shots btw. Those straight lines are so satisfying! Lol. Thanks for sharing!
Tony, I think you and I would get along great. I don't BS about anything. I love the Drone footage of the field as you were in high dressing. Nothing beats freshly tilled soil.
Yeah a lot put on in Fall in our area too. One reason the present administration stays up at night thinking of ways to make it more expensive, and sometimes is nearly time to plant when the ground is fit for it in the Spring
Tony, and all other fellers that use anhydrous ammonia. thank you. i work in a plant that manufactures it and it was great for me to watch the application of it. we load semis from our plant and they take it to holding where nurse tanks get filled and used by y'all. PLEASE stay safe with this stuff. only takes a moment or lapse for it to get away from you.
I remember riding on the fender of our Case 1175 no cab with my dad when I was little putting on Anhydrous, never will forget that smell at each end of field. We put it on between the rows of corn after it came up. Thanks for sharing. Oh almost forgot great Drone shots.
Man I'm glad to see an older Raven. The Old 440 monitor have logged many thousands of acres. I mainly use aqua simply due to min moisture when we fert. I makes me laugh hearing "too wet" never ever had that problem up here. Lol
Per the new law hooking on tanks valves for road travel is now illegal a fyi!! Due to the big deal around Chicago, just a fyi for you not sure who is patrolling it but was told from our retailer that need to be aware and I think testing for us has to be done by April of 2022
Great video bud! Been puttin on custom NH3 for about 4 years now but have about 10 in experience with it. Great job explaining it how it all works and showing a day in the life of an NH3 guy. PPE is more of a suggestion lol just kidding!
Glad to see your most important input is put on by a red bar lol Chuck already knows give Matt some love we are thinking about h him. Have a good day you bleeping bleeped son of a bleep
Tony where are your gloves and goggles lol I use to put on custom NH3 also only ever used leather gloves great content love how blunt and real you are.
I have the utmost respect for what you do. I grew up on a farm and have put out my share of NH3. I'm curious, how does your anhydrous and equipment know how much experience you have? I know PPE isn't "manly" but I've seen too many folks (some with decades of experience) get hurt when something unexpected happened in their ammonia system. I love your content and I just want to make sure you are around to keep making it for as long as possible, but most importantly I want you to be around for your family for as long as possible. Thank you for what you do and I hope you accept this in the same spirit with which it was shared.
Do the dollar bill trick!! Saw it done 10 years ago was very neat but shows you the power of nh3, got all of ours done but 12 acres that always has water standing,
I did just about every job on the farm except applying anhydrous. Grandpa wouldn't let us kids mess with it. I did haul a lot of propane and other gases when I was trucking though.
Great video Tony and great job with the anhydrous. I remember when I lived in Texas I worked at a grain elevator and we sold a ton of that stuff lol I know exactly what you were talking about with the cloud of death as we used to call it. I don't know if you ever tried it or not but you can actually shrink up a dollar bill in it. We would catch the drippings in a half of pop bottle when we were bleeding off the lines until we got about half full. Then you just dip the bill into it and let it dry and then keep doing that until you get it as small as you want. I had one in my wallet for years that was literally as small as monopoly money lol
Tony are you controlling the drone from inside of the tractor? And them drone shots from high above showing the entire field and where you had already been was cool as shit thanks for the awesome videos I love them keep up the great work and keep them coming appreciated it
A cool trick is to take a dollar bill , put it so when you vent off line directly onto bill, then immediately put bill next to high heat source , like radiator or exhaust manifold, , it will turn bill into monopoly size bill
Since we farm in different areas, I gotta ask why the chiseled bean stubble? I'm sure you have your reasons but we just don't see any of that in central iowa.
We quit doing it around here. Used to run in the spring and then side dress what what we missed directly into 1-2 foot corn. If you pulled out the machine before you for it shut down the anhydrous would burn the corn. The bass could always see where you screwed up. Haha. I don’t miss pulling tanks. That was a real pain. Have a fucking great day.
I have worked with nh3 for over 50 years and the first thing you do is put on the gloves and gogles all it takes is one mistake and you wont have to worry about seeing the next forever. My teacher said treat it like a snake and never trust it wear your gloves and gogles.
If you don’t know the feeling of walking past the anhydrous bar and getting a fat sniff of anhydrous and thinking your gonna die then you’ve never put in anhydrous
The rate is 1 qt per acre so they figure how much actual N you're putting on and then they pump it into the anhydrous tank. The custom rigs around here have an n-serve tank mounted to the applicator and it injects the n-serve in at the manifold, instead of running it through the tank.
$420 a ton and we put on 175 lbs of actual N per acre. That equates to a little less than $45 per acre. The N serve stabilizer is an additional $12 per acre.
It literally cuts off your ability to breathe and if you get into a cloud big enough it can cause damage to your lungs and even kill you if you can't get away from it. The problem is it's invisible so you don't know where to go to get out of it lol
In a split second you can find yourself battling to breathe and on your way to a hospital and a ventilator hoping the anhydrous, which is attracted to moisture, is not burning away your lung tissue as it reacts with the moisture inside your lungs and airways.
@@hendrik1636c because we always feel like bad things only happen to "other people" and not to us. It's a belief as old as time and it's especially true for those of us raised on farms. I did it without PPE from the time I was 13 because we simply didn't know better.
Tony I love it when you're straight forward. No BS. You always tell it like it is. Keep the videos coming
I didn’t realize you had a RUclips channel subscribed and bell rang brother

Been using this stuff over 40 years first good video on how it’s done
Great content! My family has a big farm in the area and I always wondered what it looked like up close.
Awesome Video!!!
Great job explaining

If that's a mole knife, that's the most worn out one I've ever seen.
Very interesting

😍😍😍
Tony where are your gloves and goggles lol I use to put on custom NH3 also only ever used leather gloves great content love how blunt and real you are.
Love watching your videos man, put a lot of ammonia on for the equity real close to you
Monitor makes it nice.. Back when we farmed I had to pull a damn rope to turn it on and off
That's exactly how we did it too.

Yep sure enough, i made a couple of those for the kids. I showed it on tik tok and had about 100 requests for me to make them for people 🤣🤣
@@growincorn745 LMBO that's awesome

The word you may have been looking for is an inhalation hazard. Anhydrous is good stuff. Can’t get it in our area anymore and I wish we could.
I think the word he was lookin for is volatile.
Since we farm in different areas, I gotta ask why the chiseled bean stubble? I'm sure you have your reasons but we just don't see any of that in central iowa.

Does the coop own the bar and the tanks? Only the big guys around us had their own bulk systems.
Tony snowed here in Ohio today

Tony how many acres to tank fill
If you don’t know the feeling of walking past the anhydrous bar and getting a fat sniff of anhydrous and thinking your gonna die then you’ve never put in anhydrous
How does the N serve get into the tanks? I’ve used anhydrous for 30+ years and I’ve seen stuff like that N serve and wondered how they get it mixed
The rate is 1 qt per acre so they figure how much actual N you're putting on and then they pump it into the anhydrous tank. The custom rigs around here have an n-serve tank mounted to the applicator and it injects the n-serve in at the manifold, instead of running it through the tank.
Didn’t ever know that 👍
Potent
How many acres can u cover with a tank?
Hell yea ole son
Are ya near Springfield
Do you use RTK when applying And planting?
No just standard SF1 deere signal.
Sup bud, can you explain where you live like three Illinois or Alaska situation, me and my dad are just confused.
He lives in Illinois
Gloves!
No gloves and goggles?
Face shield!
What different social media do you use like Instagram etc. and what are your handle/name you use on them
Ive got Facebook, snapchat, and Instagram but dont use any of them
@@growincorn745 okay cool. I don't have any of them either but was going to make a account if you were on there.
@@cntslesfabrication he's now on tiktok and his vids are great! Lol
Is this stuff expensive ?
$420 a ton and we put on 175 lbs of actual N per acre. That equates to a little less than $45 per acre. The N serve stabilizer is an additional $12 per acre.
@@growincorn745 Thamls for the answer.Likeking the video youre makening i m always suprised you guys keep you re traktors so nice and clean
It’s usually the cheapest form of nitrogen
One of my friends shot an anhydrus tank and it made a 5 foot hole in the ground
That’s not true!
That’s BS
We farm 8,000 pounds of rabbit shit a month
No gloves no goggles not very safe
So why does everybody wear gloves and goggles and looks like guys that goes to the moon.
Because it will kill yore eyes lungs everything it can
It literally cuts off your ability to breathe and if you get into a cloud big enough it can cause damage to your lungs and even kill you if you can't get away from it. The problem is it's invisible so you don't know where to go to get out of it lol

But why is he not wearing anything?

it don t matter if you have put on 100 million acres all it takes is one little mishap and youre done!!! i thought you were smarter than that
