You look very happy doing this. I miss that. Working your butt off doing hard work is....hard work... but it's so stress-free mentally compared to the office BS. It makes you happy.
Best part of the video was seeing that cheesy smile of a man living his dream! Great video and thanks for taking time to document your journey! Best life Bud!
We used a bigger haybuster in NW MN, fungus issues slowed down our no till movemnt. Then it didn't rain for about 8 years. It was a good drill for any seeding, the hoppers were very large.
Its not inoculated to prevent disease its inoculated to provide the bacteria that take nitrogen from the air and form nodules on the roots of nitrogen to feed the soil.
I’ve never seen 40# per acre on establishing pasture. 25# for fescue here in East Tennessee is what all the farmer co-op say. We are being reimbursed this year on 100 acres through a program with university of TN and although we have to plant fescue and clover the specs were 25 and 4# per acre. Great videos and keep us posted on how this field comes up.
Looks like fun! Haha! Well I get to plant strawberry plants tomorrow. We too are using JD 5065. The planter punches the hole drops a little water and we plant them by hand! I dread it! Kills the back!
From experience I always use a pull behind Aretor and seeder all in one made just like that but has an aretor instead of using the slit seeded it drops the seed into a hole about 3/4 of inch into the ground I have also found the over seeding about a month or so after helps the Grass take root over the winter just food for thought. Rye grass also helps establish a quick root system so the Grass has something to attach to.
What I was thinking when you were cutting them bags of seed, is the lil white pieces of the bag clog the seed cups up. Josh going to be digging some seeds out.
been watching the use of the no drill till application in the use of food plots . the benefits are great and useful for building soil in crappt rocky ground if used with a buffalo crimper
Great video, just what I needed to teach my city raised daughter about how a "tractor" seeds a field, hope it countered the silly cartoon tractors she was watching.
Hi Josh, I’m about to drill k32 and clover into established native warm season pastures. Was advised by my hay guy to seed at a 1/4” depth. What depth did you seed at and how did the stand come in?
lol.....don't waste your money on K 32 if you have any K31 it will cross pollinate and you'll be back to square one, the endophyte in fescue is down next to the ground...in other words the first 4-6 inches...if you don't over graze you shouldn't have any endophyte issues...what you said in this message seems strang...so for seed depth....simply double the size of the seed...and that should be appropriate. Basically with what you are planting ya need to barely scrape the ground. You should be planting fescue and clover in the fall v/s the summer...those are cool season grasses that would benifit from the wet season in fall to get a root hold and start really taking off early spring. Seeding in spring is often a waste of seed, time and money. You'll have some germination...but not as much as you'd like in the spring and you run into a dry and hot spell in June and you'll potentially lose your grass crop. My advice....broadcast your clover seed at around 1/2 to 1lb per acre...it will take! Drill down your grass seed at 25lbs per acre in the spring...drill again at 50lbs to the acre in the fall and you'll have a bumper crop next year! Save some seed for fall my brotha...you'll be pleased. Trust me I wasted thousands on spring seeding!! THOUSANDS!!
Hey Josh, I am in the process of getting south poll. One of my pastures is over grown with black berries. I am working on cutting that down. My question is how well this worked for you? I am in NE Alabama any lessons learned is greatly appreciated.
Works great and where blackberries grow…. Fescue will most likely flourish! Mow mow mow! Try not to let the cows get scratched up by blackberry bushes if you can help it. Greg judy told me some horror stories about cows getting scratched up and having open little wounds exposed to bare soil. Bad for tetanus and black leg. If I were you I’d vaccinate for tetanus and black leg just in case
So how did the stand of K32 come in? I've had a few farmers around me swear by it and just as many others say it died off and thinned out after it got hot. I just have a few acres that I need to rejuvenate and thought about going back with some Max-Q until someone mentioned the K32. What part of the state are you in?
I want to take a soy bean farm turn it to pasture for hay. Wanting to a mix of mainly fescue with some orchard (southern Missouri) would you reccomend seed drilling or do you think I can get away with dragging the field with a harrow and broadcasting thanks in advance
Do you have to till the ground before using a no till seeder? I have a bout 5 acres that has been used for horses the last few years and is now packed dirt or patchy weeds, and I want to turn that into a nice pasture or lawn. I'm looking for a no till seeder to rent, but do I need a tiller too to break up the ground before seeding? Apologies if this is a dumb question.
You don't need to till, which is why it's called a 'no till' drill. You do want as much exposed soil as possible to maximize seed to soil contact, and the soil needs to be soft enough that it can cut about 1/4" in. Before you drill, mow the pasture very short, scalp it almost right down the ground and minimize residue (clippings, chaff, etc) by removing them, or mowing for several weeks in advance so the clippings can start to dry up and break down and decay. Then drill the seed in. If your soil pH is correct and soil is fertilized you'll have better take of the seed.
It was cool to that smile while you were working. BTW, I think "tilling" implies turning the soil over, and relativrly deep. Discs just cut and break up the surface with very little turning. I could be wrong, but what are the odds of that? ;o)
I'm gonna be nosey. What kind of job do you have that supports your farming? (Or did you have?) Obviously this all takes money and if I had to guess at this time it's costing more than it's making?
yep farm isnt making too much right now..cutting timber is helping to clean up the land..I work as a RN to support the farming until it gets off the ground
Nothing wrong with medical field. I am a truck driver wife in school finished her certified medical office assistant and now she’s going to school for the clinical part of it. Since your close I guess you might work at Baptist in Winston I hate that hospital my mom was in and out of there in 2002-2003 and died then. But love your videos.
Where is your farm? In Ohio we like orchard grass timothy clover alfalfa for hay. Fescue is very evasive will smother every thing out. Good job like your vids.
Nice work, Josh. Am I right in my understanding that you're looking at a good couple of years regenerating the land before the fields become productive?
Is there money in having pasture land? Wonder if soya would be more profitable or even feed corn. up here we grow a lot of soya and its quite profitable
Local landscape supply Green Resource...let me tell you ...don't waste your money before you do some research...planing k32 v/s k31...if you have any k31 in your pasture..it will likely blend with the k32 and render it ineffective against fescue endophyte
Lots of comments down below....well opinions are like.....belly buttons; everybody has one. Anyway, I have 18 acres of hilly overgrown fields that have gone fallow for a few years and are in rough shape. I would like to get them back to hay production. I'm wondering if I have to completely kill them off with glyphosate, then plow and disc before reseeding. No way I can get it all done this Fall, but I sure would like to start
We took a dozer to our overgown mess....or go rent a skid steer with brush cutter on the front...give it a year or so and clean it all up with a toothed bucket loader
@StoneyRidgeFarmer I did and no body does, we have watershed district that offers cover crop programs and other programs but don't have a no till. It's not very popular here yet, slowly catching on but very slow. Thanks for informing people on this way of farming, sustainable and regenerative.
You're on the right track, and a lot further than most folks but you're a bit off Mark still to be able to build soil organic matter efficiently. Being that you have an off Farm job I'm sure you're really pressed for time but if you can spare time to read a book or listen to a audiobook please do yourself a favor of reading Gabe Browns brand new book called Dirt to Soil. Also, another favor for your fields, head over to regenerativeagriculturepodcast.com by John Kempf and listen to a few, if not all of them (Also found on Google play). If you're pressed and don't have the time to listen to all of his podcasts over the coming weeks/months then I will go through and put them in order of how pertinent I think they are to your knowledge. I want the best for all farms and I'm trying to do more than my part to regenerate the land we eat from. You'll be thinking in profit per acre vs production per acre in no time :)
Yea...well we all got together and planned the route for them to travel that would leave the least footprint....it's coming together now...land is healing...just takes time...fortunately it will be 30 years before I cut again...maybe my kids will cut....who knowss
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer My forester leaves 24 inch trees at chest height and we cut every 12-15 years.Never breaking the canopy making more expensive veneer lumber with no limbs 20 to thirty ft. of trunk.
Love your videos brother! Pls correct me if I’m wrong but, I thought a “no till drill”, was to help with water and, soil conservation. Noticed that your soil had been cultivated beforehand. Just starting out ourselves and the wild turkey population is killing us in certain parts of WV. Any pointers? Whooooo!!!!
So "no till" works great....for drilling grass seed and planting in well established land....we just cleared all this land...in other words we took forest and made pasture land.....season after season we'll continue to drill down grass seed as these pastures become more and more established. Broadcast spreading grass seed on newly cleared land like this is like throwing money into the wind...you get about 1/3 germination.....where drilling the seed you get about 9/10 germination...it really works well...not without a cost though.....$15 per acre drilled...the machine has a meter on it and you "rent" by the acre.....we spend about $500 on the drill and thousands on seed. Thousands more on lime and fertilizer to get a start on building the land back up. As for turkeys....we have them bad too......don't plant corn or they'll just pluck it right out of the ground!
Never have understood why people get rid of weeds for pasture. It seems like that if the cows eat it it ain't a weed but maybe that is why I aint a farmer.
watch a few more of my vids about pasture my friend. So...it's more than just "getting rid of weeds"....our plants in the pastures are telling us something...they're telling us about the quality of the soil....however ruminant animals such as cows, sheep, goats need high quality forage....weeds or undesirable plants are much less palatable, sometimes poisonous in certain quantities and have less nutritive value...so that's the rub my brotha
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I am a long way from being a farmer. I am just parroting Gabe Brown. As a matter of fact, it is a direct quote, and he seems to be doing ok.
Hmmm....well we have a month or two before frost..the ground moisture has already sprouted the grass seed...I guess the heavy dew in the mornings...rain is coming and fall is the best time for planting here where I live...mild winters and dry summers...better risk a light frost than a sprouted seed that gets baked from the dry heat...I will go back and overseed areas that need attention in the spring though...after the sprouts can shade the new growth and retain moisture ...thanks for the comment JB..I appreciate ya buddy
Cool Josh, just found you today. I started to follow you. I'm upgrading my website, gazelledaily.com, the new site will be up around the Tuesday 3rd, I would like to add you to my farmers group if that's ok. keep up the good work. I'll be watching to see if you give me the ok. Jesse
Sorry to hear about those Asplunde guys . That has to be one of those stupid crews . I used to work for the comoany back when i was way younger . respect for the home owner was our top priority on our crew. It pisses me off to know that these ........ Clowns . (trying to keep my comment clean here ) . If they damaged your field any they have to pay for it . Complain to thier general manager. Get in touch with your electric company and ask to speak with the general manager and contract coordinator. See if ya can get something started there .
Stoney Ridge Farmer id love to see what they have done . make a video of it . They didnt need to be on your dam . For any reason . and thier saftey is one of them .
Tree cutters are jagoffs, they aint the sharpest knife in the drawer,,, You should contact to company and bitch about what they did to your hay,, and take it to small claims court or a magistrate
You look very happy doing this. I miss that. Working your butt off doing hard work is....hard work... but it's so stress-free mentally compared to the office BS. It makes you happy.
Best part of the video was seeing that cheesy smile of a man living his dream! Great video and thanks for taking time to document your journey! Best life Bud!
Thanks BIill..I was enjoying myself for sure
Same here :) you rarely see a genuine smile like that when at work
Keep it up josh. There is really no one out there show the process of setting up a farm. Great job man.
I had so much fun watching your video, great attitude!
Glad you enjoyed it!

I almost 🤮 when you noted the prices. I wish seed was still that cheap lol
3 guys goin’ at it; plowing in a field. God, farming sounds great.
Great video, dude!
Ew...
So wish he could show us some drone footage of that
Your property is coming along very fast & looking more & more beautiful Every time I watch.
Wooooo!
Thanks buddy
Why does everyone who make a vid on haybuster drills not explain how to set the depth
because we don't know how? I didn't know you could change the depth
Back in the day, I used to use the seed bags for floor mats.
Looks like fun! Haha! Well I get to plant strawberry plants tomorrow. We too are using JD 5065. The planter punches the hole drops a little water and we plant them by hand! I dread it! Kills the back!
Ouch..yea bending over a hole all day does wonders for ur back that's for sure

Cool video and background music ! Greetings from Panama and thanks for sharing !!
Think about farming! Thanks for the info I'm not a hater...so keep up the good work and you got my support!!!!
Thanks buddy!
Livin' the dream! Looking great!
Why you discing and dragging if you’re doing no till ? Plus can you add fertilizer to the hoppers
newly cleared land has to be smoothed my friend...that's why. This is not designed to incorporate fertilizer and could damage the seeder
Hi you are doing a great job on the farm nice video buddy
been watching the use of the no drill till application in the use of food plots . the benefits are great and useful for building soil in crappt rocky ground if used with a buffalo crimper
Check me out in a few days..will be planting some fall food plots too!
Dope work,farming is life..
Good to watch such a small operation compared to my families broad acre farming in Australia.. but good to watch
Do you have a video on that tool back you have on the front left of your tractor?

When ever I have my own small farm I thought about building my own seeder and disk. Also planning on owning a 6k+ acre farm to in Texas.
Good luck with that
lmao, three guys goin at it...in what way? fighting or??? you crack me up.
Dont you innoculate clover to get more nitrogen into the ground?
Great videos...thanks!
Loos good brother. God Bless
good job
Howdy, I just saw this is two years ago, how's it look today?

It was cool to that smile while you were working. BTW, I think "tilling" implies turning the soil over, and relativrly deep. Discs just cut and break up the surface with very little turning. I could be wrong, but what are the odds of that? ;o)

Thank You
how did it turn out?!
What time of year?
What is the difference between Kentucky 32 and Kentucky 31 fescue
Google my friend...to.much to explain in a comment
haha 3 guys going at it working hard :')
very funny
I love your videos! I am local, could you point me in the right direction to find where I could rent that seed drill?
josh really like your channel. good job(not that my opinion matters) with the farm and the style of the channel. do you sing the intro songs yourself?
I may of missed it but didn't catch the depth you were drilling seed , fescue probably ½ inch or less

rain!
Nice work, Josh. Am I right in my understanding that you're looking at a good couple of years regenerating the land before the fields become productive?
That's about right
👍interesting & informative, thx✌️
What's the recommended hp rating for that no till
Is that white second gen Cummins a diesel or not?

Is there money in having pasture land? Wonder if soya would be more profitable or even feed corn. up here we grow a lot of soya and its quite profitable
The ultimate goal on the farm is to have Cattle and pastured poultry ..after we get done cleaning up the land and building fences

Corn planter puts a bigger seed in the ground...I'm working on borrwoing one from my step dad this year
How does the local farmer charge by the acre? does it count the acres?
+John Sorlie yes it has a meter on it
I wish there was a no till drill to rent in my area.
check your local ag extension office...I'll bet you'll be surprised
@StoneyRidgeFarmer I did and no body does, we have watershed district that offers cover crop programs and other programs but don't have a no till. It's not very popular here yet, slowly catching on but very slow. Thanks for informing people on this way of farming, sustainable and regenerative.
This is pretty much an airseeder. People use em a lot in southern Iowa here.
Except no air pressure.
Can my 1025r pull that?
lol funny
you should do a video of you tring to say no till drill 10 times fast
no doubt...
