That is a great looking tractor. Those front tires really toughen up the look of a 2wd tractor. If you have 2wd, those are the style of tires you should have.

[@SimonKL11]

Always liked this style of john deere tractors👍

[@bigtractorpower]

👍👍

[@randalperry2934]

Adding lime to the soil raises the pH, it doesn't lower it

[@bigtractorpower]

I misspoke. I meant to say adjust it. Trying to film and put out a video out everyday caused a slip up on this one.

[@scottpykare801]

A farm near me has a John Deere 4440 and a 4755. They are in great shape and run like new. They were the first big tractors on their farm. They've graduated to 3 Challenger MT875E's these days. Lol

[@bigtractorpower]

Very cool.

[@jeremyswindell2330]

Nice john deere! Takes me back as a kid when they were new!

[@bigtractorpower]

👍👍

[@johnleden1909]

Applying lime raises the pH thereby lower the acidity.

[@gr82bcrazy1]

When you don't have enough ballis on your loader and you're doing some heavy lifting, use a hay bale. 👍

[@carterbowe9964]

Improvise. adapt. overcome.

[@markrskinner]

Ballis? 😂😆

[@misingkoneng6411]

Thanks so it would not be able to you and your

A friend of mine put a 4955 engine in his 4850. Bigger valves, bigger turbo....pepped it up a bit!

[@bigtractorpower]

Cool.

[@vehicle_pictures_2328]

Why do the 40 series John Deere tractors have the front of the cab round? Is there a purpose for that?

[@NS-hw5wz]

PlowableGore 14 they are called sound guard cabs and the shape of it disperses and mutes the sound

[@bigtractorpower]

The 30,40,50,55 and 60’series used the Sound Gard cab for 21 years. The design was built to lower the decibel if outside sound in the cab.

[@smacdiesel]

Strange seeing a no till operation. Planting amongst all those weeds. Cool video!

[@bigtractorpower]

The green is volunteer wheat from last years wheat harvest in this field. The field is sprayed and it cleans right up.

[@smacdiesel]

@@bigtractorpower Ok thanks!! Learning a lot from this channel!

[@giorgospantelaios3928]

I wanted to ask for a video with a 4960 2 wd and next day i saw this in you tube keep up the good job your biggest fan from greece

[@bigtractorpower]

I hope to find a 2wd 4960 to film. I have a 2wd 4850 and this 4955 here on the channel. I have a 2wd 8200 on the way.

[@d5ncat227]

No way I'd let my tractor suck in that lime dust

[@davidphillips6571]

How do they get rid of all the grass?

[@bigtractorpower]

Herbicide. It is volunteer wheat.

[@davidphillips6571]

@@bigtractorpower Thanks.

[@jaythomas4695]

Does the spreader have the shut off on the ends like the self propelled units an auto steering

[@jefftexas7948]

Jay Thomas There’s no satellite receiver on the cab so I would say he does not have auto-steer installed. And therefore that spreader would not have an auto-shut-off mechanism either. I bet he’s doing it the old fashioned way.

[@patrickreilly5202]

Great video, enjoy them all. I think you meant raise the pH-lime is a strong base.

[@bigtractorpower]

Yes. I meant to say adjust the PH.

[@patrickreilly5202]

@@bigtractorpower Yep-gotcha. Thank you for providing history on different tractor brands, interesting how the companies develop and adapt to market demand.

It’s the eco friendly option. Bio degradable 😁

[@dimduk]

Is lime expensive?

[@augustreil]

This is no comparison, but lime for my garden is around 5 bucks for a 40lb bag of pellitized lime.

[@billbooth4147]

Pat Kelley that’s a loaded question,but not really for what it dose

[@billbooth4147]

Phil Hall makes crops be able to uptake nutrients,adjust your soils ph so herbicides and nutrients work properly

[@22jbwest]

The lime kinda looks like wet gravel.

[@bigtractorpower]

In essence that is what it is. It is dug from the local quarry and crushed.

[@22jbwest]

bigtractorpower I had no idea. Thanks for the info.

[@mfreund15448]

Jon West It is the fine particles left from processing limestone into crushed stone.

Lime raises PH...

[@bigtractorpower]

Yes I meant to say adjust. I was in a rush to get out and film more footage and just did not hear the mistake in the audio.
