Thanks for the ride a long!! Interesting start to your adventure in harvesting...Grant/ Laura...wonderful to see ya'll again!!!!!!!
🧙♂️👍!!
As difficult as the combining is going in the beans , it is good to see you getting a good start with the 2023 harvest. Hopefully the rest of the fall work goes well.
Really enjoyed the video. This and most of your posts make me feel "I am there"; and I could almost feel everything going on with the equipment and also smell everything going on, especially the beans and the residue (stems and plummies). In Missouri we sometimes call the pods, stems, etc. coming out of the back of the combine - "plummies". Header reversers are/were sure a great invention. Spent a lot of time on my own, similar, John Deere combines.
I love how Grant has become so much more comfortable in front of the camera. And (like Laura), he's a great teacher. Happy harvest, you two.
You two are doing a great job. You are dealing with each situation as it arises and pressing on. That’s what farmers do; fix it and keep going!

It's kind of calming that we (here in the middle of Germany) weren't the only ones who had lots of trouble getting the grain and legume harvest done. Thanks for your great videos and best wishes from the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. 🚜
Thanks for upload more videos of your harvest this year. Keep them coming
It was super fun watching you struggle to drive the truck.... Its so awesome that you share everything, not just the glamorous stuff.... We love you guys!!
My family got out of farming several years after our parents passed on. These videos are awesome and seeing the changes to farm equipment is great, my brothers & I were excited when we could harvest 9 rows of peanuts and run 2 combines at the same time with a John Deere 4020 and Illiston picker's and combine. Thanks Laura farms
You two are doing amazing farming 😊 Thanks for sharing and keeping America running!!!!
I love the concentration and determination you have for driving the Semi. Although that passion seems to come out in everything you do.
Thanks for another great video Laura and Grant and Gage.
It was interesting.
Tough beans to harvest but you all are making it work. Not the best of conditions but my compliments to you all for taking your time and making it work. Good job.
Gage is a good helper for you.
Laura you are doing good with the semi with the driving and shifting and all that stuff. Doing good Laura.
You all take care and be safe. Thanks for everything.

I watch most of your videos. They are well done. You explain in layman's term what you doing and why. You and Grant have such a positive banter. Your videos are peaceful and fun to watch. Thank you.
Great video, years ago I used a class dominator combine with class lifters fitted to the header. Great bit of kit the lifters literally lift the crop of the floor allowing the cutters under the crop. JD equipment is great but I don’t think they use lifters on their combine heads.
The team to watch!!😊
Learn something each video!
Thanks for letting us go with you!
Went back and watched the "spill the beans" video. Can't believe it's already been two years! I have to admit that was 😂😂 but we won't talk about it! Laura you have come along since then. Good luck to you and Grant the rest of the harvest season! ❤
Another great video Laura, you both are doing so well farming and you work great together! That was awesome to see you wheeling that Peterbilt! And I've always said that women can drive too! Thanks again for sharing your videos with us along with your PRICELESS time and effort! Cheers from Laurel, Delaware USA.
Those are the most laid over able to harvest beans I have ever seen. Great job harvesting them y’all. 👍🚜😎✌️🇺🇸
Good morning Sunshine! You and Grant are doing great on day 3. Be safe out there. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.
Laura and Grant, I can understand how easy it would be to get the combine clogged-up with the bean stalks being so green. Your new FuelMate looks good, your dad is having your old one, I believe.
Love from Mike. ❤
You have the reel always on the good speed: not to slow but surely not to fast.
I have seen people combining this week where the beans were combed out of the pot's before they could reach the combine.
Good job, and by god what is the stuf green, for sure there will be some beans going on the field with the straw.
Love your videos. OMG, I used to help my brother inlaw harvest wheat and soybeans here in the middle of Kansas back in the late 70s and 80s. It is amazing how the equipment has advanced.
You are always fun to watch! I always learn something! My dad grew up farming in Montana... best of luck!
Nice fuel trailer. . .Need to move the seat up so I can depress clutch properly. . . should be able to shift with no clutch after starting
Yep it is HOT in Nebraska and same for us down South in Oklahoma 63 degrees over night but 92 as I type a reply. Tough cutting at only 1.5 MPH love your new fuel trailer BE SAFE Laura and Grant. Oh those combine cycle teeth always break when harvesting low bent over crops.
Good job Laura👍👍👍
Love the new fuel trailer. You both are a great team all around. Your humidity is like my area in the Great Lakes region in Canada and Michigan USA. Be safe.
Another great vid! Never a dull day in farming! Stay safe @
love the ride alongs! keep up the good work.
I only farmed as a kid but we were able to adjust the reel speed on our New Holland unit. Also it seems like your reel could be set closer to the sickle bar. With a reel speed faster than the ground speed and a one inch clearance between the reel tips and the sickle bar, we handled downed crop much better. 🚜
All of your videos make me smile!
😃
Stay safe and good luck with harvest. Enjoying your vids. Eli in CT.
95 woo, same in TX right now. But compared to what it was all summer it feels almost chilly.
That episode of spilling the grain on the semi cab was the only time I've seen Laura cuss. 😅 Great video!
Great Job Laura!! Double Clutch and your golden.
😂😅 I may say it’s crazy on how we loose the hang of shifting when we haven’t been in the truck in a while 😂 it’s been 18 years since I drove truck for a farm so I am certain that I will be a little bit out of the loop on as well 😅😂
Congratulations on the new equipment!
If you run those things diagonal you could roll right along! I never cut with the row except the outside rows. They just flow better.
Where getting 65 bushels to a acre on our beans. Laura nice to see you driving the semi you drive it enough you will get use to hearing the rpms and upshift with out clutching. It will save your leg from being tired.
Yeah it's a hell of a year all over the globe. Hopefully it will turn around. Fingers crossed for corn harvest and you want to check your fuses on the Pete.
Enjoyed watching the video Laura and Grant 😊
Pro tip. Until you get the timing of shifting gears in a non synchronized transmission, try double clutching between gears. It helped me get the timing figured out.
That's the exact advice I was going to give cuz I tried going to truck driving school myself and that's what they showed me to do
No shame in double clutching. Farmer Grayce double clutches her old Mack R. Floating gears takes some practice.
My truck would do the same thing no gauges , How I fixed it was by pure chance it was in the key switch turned key off and on again waa laa they worked again pure luck I guess.
Glad harvest is moving along. I know from growing up on the farm harvest involves a bunch of work and long hours. Don't forget to get your rest while harvesting. Being overly tired can result in a accident. Harvest is a dangerous time of year for farmers. Take Care and Be safe on the farm Out.
Got a good chuckle from the shiftin' gears part. Thanks! I like the shorter videos BTW
Doing good together Laura farms.
You guys are doing a super job. Keep up the good work. Cool video. 👍❤️
Great video good to see y'all
We love you guys blessings from Martinsville Indiana
When changing gears you should depress the clutch it makes for a smoother shift in ❤
Awesome Team!!
Did They Deliver the Fuel Trailer Full ? 😂
My Guess probably Not!
Thanks!
Keep Smiling On!!
😄👍👊❤️
Thank you for sharing. God Bless 🙏
Very pretty at the end.......Idealic Farm Shot!!!!
Laura the engine sound is good to know when to shift gears I use to do that I'd use the RPM then after u get use to it then just listening to the engine is then second nature after getting use to it good job shifting keep it up
LOVE IT ! Love you Guys !
Good you did the right thing buckling up!🤠
When it's all your gauges at once that's the accessory bus circuit. Probably try a new accessory fuse first(20A resettable) and if that doesn't fix it then it's probably the accessory relay. That's usually behind the instrument panel on a Pete. When you've got the instrument panel loose replacing the relay look for any wire harnesses rubbing on metal brackets.
Rough soybean harvest everywhere i believe. We have had a lot of storms here too, bunch of a beans laying down on the ground, Wheat harvest was bad too, yields were low and buy out price super low. Lets see what soybeans and corn will look like :)
You are changing the sections on the sickle , enjoy your videos !
Lol, recalling the story @10:00 highlighted how long I’ve been watching Laura Farms 😂
I got question for you do you like old big combine harvesters or the newer ones
So good Laura Farms
Your videos are so nice! I was wondering if you have ever looked at a field with so much weather damage, that the cost of harvest would end being a loss after the expense of getting equipment in and out?
Go against the fallen down soybeans.
And check the tire tracks of combine for loss. If it lays on top on track it's loss out combine.
If it's squeezed in the ground it's header loss...
The old fuel trailer is still freaking cool but the new one holy cow
Blacksmiths are always looking for good thin steel to make knifes out of them combine teeth 👍
Your videos are awesome! I learn so much about farming. How much yeald can you actually glean from crops that have been laid down? Of course it must depend upon the type of crops you're harvesting.
We didnt get to see the shiney new sickles. U guys are doing great. Your teachers should be proud.
Prayers Allways you two ..!
I miss the good Nebraska storms from when I was a kid back in the 70s and 80s when we flew our plane back there to visit our family
I also recommend using lifters when the crop is fairly dry, they should lift the beans up and you can run the header an inch or so higher thus avoiding most of the stones . I ran lifters all the time . Lifters don’t seem very popular in the U.S.
I was in Northern Iowa on Friday, not farming related, but as a retired farmer you never stop looking! and I couldn't help seeing as we walked near some fields how low the beans to the ground, I don't see how anyone can get the header knives that low down without digging up soil and rubbish, it seemed a good crop though.
I love how you drive that truck 😊 You make it know you’re boss.
Good job making the best of the harvest... 💪
My favorite farm Gal oh and Grant her husband lol 😂 God Bless u two
Good job guys
Wow, incorporating solar. Great jobs folks. Best wishes.
Likely a loose ground on those gauges in the Peterbuilt
I am amazed at the combine in soybean and corn harvesting. Branches, stocks, leaves, cobs, and beans go in front...just kernels and beans come out the exit pipe.🤔
Hi laura yous are doing a great job
Miss Laura, when are we going to see part of Gauge's Football games?
Again, prayers for a Safe and Bountiful Harvest 🙏❤️
Forget Gage's football games....I wanna see Laura pole vaulting over cattle fences!😂😂😂😂❤
Nice work 💯
Love that decal!
Might be worth investing in an impact screw gun, light torque, you can get 3/8 socket adapters. Faster fix, and back to harvest quicker.
I remember sit'n in the cab of an International Harvester combine all day with my uncle. The humm at ??? 1-1/2 mph. 61yrs old now. The good ol' days. ...Alan in 🇨🇱. They didn't have two seats back in the farm in our day.
Awesome video!!
I have a small garden and raise peas or beans in the early spring and 8n late late summer. I till the plants in after harvest
Have you and grant ever think of getting a wind system for your combine head for doing beans
You are a business woman who understands how to do bizness.
You really/ need to move you seat forward in the semi so your not having to sit on the edge to reach the clutch.
Your gauge issue is probably a bad ignition switch. Try wiggling the key, or turning it off then back on.
a few comments back i saw someone talking about how this one time he just took out his keys, tried again and was amazed they worked again.
Funny to see this comment after, must be a common thing
@@stonedmountainunicorn9532 especially older trucks.
also, it's likely to be a faulty common earth wire somewhere in or near the ignition steering column or in the panel, as it's taking out all the gauges. Gage should be able to put a finger on it with a name such as his! :)
Really enjoy Ya'lls videos. Laura, I think you & Grant were meant to do this.
Looks like you dont push the clutch when shifting gears? 12:50
Phantastic Video again. Wish you a good harvest.
Trucker Laura in the making! Keep up the good work! 🙂
Great 👍 job blessing for you
The dew point is what determines how hot it feels. Any dew point over 60° and it starts to feel sticky!
Try checking the ground from the frame to the engine and see if that helps with the gauges not working.
Try moving the sickle bar right and left. You might be able to take the sickles off by moving the sickle bar over to the end of it's travel which might clear the hold down.
When the plants lay down from the wind is there a predominant direction they lay if so which direction should you cut at ?
It's sweet that all the gauges go out because that could only be the power connection. Could be under the dash (just lay on the floor and look up) or at the fuse box, or even a connector on the firewall under the hood. Y'all have a test light, don't you? Figure out the wire and when it's not working just trace it until the power comes back (or goes away depending on which end of the wire you started on.) A quick visual inspection might find the culprit though. Annoyingly, a connector with several wires might be plugged in tight, but one prong has come out of the connector a little bit. You _can_ find that by inspection, but it's easier with a test light. Putting the probe in one side of the connector will light the light but the other side won't,
The other thing to look for is a bad ground. They can reek havoc.
Nice tan.
Looks very familiar. Changed a bunch of them myself
