How we Fix Field Tile using SoilMax Gold Digger & GPS | Vlog #38

- A hot Sunday here on the farm and we are trying to get some tiling wrapped up before bean harvest that looks like it may be starting next week. Last year we bought a tile plow to help us fix old tile or add small runs where fields are low lying, or prone to flooding. This technology is probably one of my favourites on our farm. And the best part?... we have it all on recorded with our GPS and mapping. So no searching for old hand-drawn maps, and struggling to find the buried old tiles.

Love when you and Mark are together working 💚 couples who work well together stay together 💚💚 2023 look how far you've come 🥰
I believe that farming is a calling, its unbelievable what farmers are doing, you've got to have faith, do unbelievable hard work!!!! Thank you to every farmer all over the world.
I can remember watching my grandfather tile a field, he would have loved this new technology 😊
Congratulations guys! That tiling was really interesting too! Tfs Sandi! Please stay safe and sending hugs to you and yours 💜🙏🤗
Amazing. I wonder if couple of generations ago this kind of farming would have been science fiction!
been watching your videos for years...missed this one i guess.. was awesome finding out how you tile and what it means. the machine you used was really fantastic how it put that pipeing into the ground..learn something new from your videos everyday ...its great. thank you
Happy anniversary! And thank you for showing what tiling is. I always thought it was maybe just cutting higher rows into the ground, but now I know. Thanks for thé good info. 🚜🚜👍👍❤️❤️🚜
I love your blogs Sandi keep them coming I just started to watch from blog 1 Absolutely love them xxx
Happy Anniversary! Your teaching about tiling and that cool tool are neat. And love the music. 😁
Use rye for winter. It helps the soil and it adds the rain where in the soil, too. I’m not in a farm but I’ve been for 15 acres for organic food 1974. Yes I’m old! 73 years
Extremely interesting seeing the tile and the process of tiling. My father in law was a farmer who grew mostly alfalfa (hay) and cotton in rotation. His fields were irrigated, not enough rain otherwise. ( Southern California in the Kern Valley ) This was old school farming in the 1950’s till 1980’s. No technology like you have now. Soil was tested tho. He was also an inventor and invented some farm equipment for himself with patents on at least some. His hay was always bailed.
30 to 40 degrees Celsius is summer in Australia! I had no idea Canada could get that hot. I thought that usually areas that got extreme cold temperatures didn’t get extreme heat & vice versa
This is so fascinating. What work you guys do to run that farm. Amazing.
That machine that puts the tile in, is pretty awesome!
Very impressive enjoy watching keep up the videos
It was so hot today in Bowmanville(Durham Region)my A/C actually came on. I think this is about the 2 or 3 time it's come on all summer. Congrats on your 19th anniversary!
Keith Brettell thanks Keith!
Being able to do your own tiling is great, and imagine my surprise, that main was real tile ! I like the vids you do with your somewhat reluctant husband, he participates but it's like pulling teeth. ha ha ha thanks for posting.
Thanks for explaining. Didn't know how it was done.
Never seen clay tile used before, how old is that ? Thanks and great video ! And congrats on your 20th this year !!
Pretty old... most of these fields were randomly tiled with that stuff...
And thank you!!!
Congratulations for your beautiful farm. Could you tell me how many sheeps and acres you have? Do you cultivate all your sheep food? From your experience, how many sheep somebody is able to feed per cultivated acre? Approximately.... Thank you in advance.
Thanks so much for the kind words... We grow our own feed yes. We had 60 acres of hay, but are now down to 40 acres as we didn't need that much. About 6-8 acres of corn for corn silage. Not sure how many acres on dry corn usage, will need to calculate that.
That was sooo COOL!
That was so cool!
❤❤
Sandi 🔥🔥🔥
Dow brews a good beer, too. I never have had a bad one, though. O Canada!
LOL!
Lots of fields being tiled like this around me... what is the likelihood of hitting that tile if you re seed a field or convert over to corn? I won the jackpot my field is sandy loam, doesn’t need it...
The tiles are pretty deep, corn seed is planted on a few inches deep. So thankfully no issues there... We have run into cover crop roots finding their way into some tiles and causing major issues however!
Oh my God😱.....you should get into that new business..... because you don't have enough to do......😟 (Missed this one from 2 years ago)
LOL. Thanks Jim!

So I have a bunch if questions, apparently.
Is tiling basically digging drainage ditches? Or like weeping tile around a building? Water can accumulate in the tile and be redirected away? When the tile was actual clay pipe it would be able to filter out silt. Does silt accumulate in the plastic tile?
If there is a lack of moisture because of the weather does a tiled field "suffer" in comparison to an untitled one?
Mark can really lay the pipe I see. Must have alot of experience. LMAO
I see you grid tile
Curious : How deep does this have to go?
Back when Mark was camera shy
I have a question why is it so hot at 30'-35' in Canada?
Celsius it is 86 - 95 Fahrenheit
What is the tile? It is a thing you can hold? I still have no idea.
a long time ago the buried drainage pipes were made of clay, which is traditionally called 'tile' like the clay tiles on your kitchen floor or bathroom walls and floors, or like clay roof shingles etc. Maybe ceramic is a term you are more used to. So tiling a field is now the term used for installing plastic flexible pipes (with holes in them for the water to drain into) at appropriate slopes and depths in fields to drain to a header (a main collection pipe) which then drains into a ditch somewhere. In this video the header was so old it was actually made from tile (clay or ceramic). So tile is still what the plastic pipes are called and tiling is the act of installing the plastic perforated pipes for drainage or dealing with any of it.
