The garlic doesn't care up or down just likes to be in the ground. Thanks for sharing! Good to see you repurposing the transplanting.
Hey Jeff
Thank You. I’ve been eyeballing it for a while now and I knew I had the parts to get her back going.
I recommend the pvc pipe I'm not sure of the size but ours never fell out wedged in there nice and tite we use to plant everything with ours when I was a kid . Great piece of equipment brings back lots of memories of growing up
Thanks John
I look forward to planting the sweet potatoes with it.
I have one of these transplanters that I got to plant an acre of garlic. Never used it . I'm encouraged to go through now
It works pretty good. The bulbs will develop sideways if it lands sideways.
@@Jtwes I made pvc cups for the end of the fingers that would set them upright. Geard the planter for my desired spacing. It ran to fast for hand loading behind a jd 40 at idle. May revisit it now that you have peeked my interest in how the water valve is tripped. Maybe rig an automatic loader for the fingers trips like the water. Or a tube straight down into the sword that is tripped and places the clove. Anyhow ,your vidio has me drawing up several designs of boltons for this type planter and planting using the water trip.
.
Love the Farmall
We’re planting pumpkin seeds this year with our Holland transplanter. Pretty much the same way, using a PVC pipe to guide the seed.
I believe that might work. Be careful of how deep the sword is running.
@@Jtwes that’s going to be my toughest challenge, we’re going to do a small test run early May to make sure we can get the right depth.
You read my mind Joe. As I was watching the boys drop garlic bulbs, I wondered about planting potatoes that way. I think that's the first pull behind Holland I've seen for one row. Mine was a pick up planter and the water barrel mounted on the right side of the tractor. Either way, Holland planters were second to none. My Great Uncle Claude had a Powell and when he saw us planting with our Holland, he went to Leinbachs and traded for a Holland.
I would like to had a pickup one. I was telling William about them the other day.
Holland makes a bulb attachment just for that job…they can be used to plant potatoes as well. It looks like a cup that bolts to the chain where the transplanter pocket goes!
We have planted several thousand sweet potato slips with the pocket setup.
Great video!
Might have to see if I can find some on eBay.
I've put many miles in behind a two-row Holland transplanter pegging tobacco in the ground.
Oh yeah you didn’t start out as a rider you had to be a Pegger first. Made you appreciate hitting all your fingers with a plant.
That’s pretty neat to watch
Thank You Rochelle
I’m glad you enjoyed it. We’ll hopefully plant broccoli next.
That's awesome video. That does take time to get it right no matter if planting tobacco or any type of plants but they did awesome.
Thanks Paul. Hopefully we’ll use it for several other things.
Good teaching for your boys. Thanks for sharing it. That was really awesome
Thank You John it was fun. Look forward to doing some potatoes.
That’s a nice little tabacco planter can’t find ones like that anymore I’ve got a four row c&m transplanter I use to plant my hemp acers and so far it’s done a good job
Hey Ben
You’ll like my next video. Working with old hemp fields.
You could plant sweet potatoes with the holland planter.
Hey Roger
I hope to use it for that this year. We planted some corn with it one year. It was corn raised in green house tobacco trays.
I think they got it done. Didn't take them long. Good work guys.
I wasn’t planning on doing 2 rows but they wanted to.
@@Jtwes you could tell they were having fun.
Hey Joey! Such a great educational video. The young men did a great job, and the music was so beautiful. 🙋♀😊P.S. Will your videography is very nice.
Now I’m going to have to delete the comment so Williams head don’t get swollen. Lol No just kidding. Thank you Torri he does a great job.
Good video Joey. I really enjoy watching the older equipment still getting the job done. The boys did a good job. Take care buddy👍
Thanks Kevin, You take care to.
I have 2 Holland setters if you need parts! Thanks for sharing,really enjoyed watching y’all planting garlic. We use to plant our garden the same way with the tobacco setter . So it will work . Tell the boys there naturals
Obtw you have a good idea on pipe!
Oh yes sir Bro Scott I’ll take all the spare parts you want to get rid of. Hope you got your tire straightened out.
Enjoyed this video my friend! I love watching the old mechanical equipment in operation
Hey Brandon
Just listen to your video this morning. Am I in a long day or a short day for onions.
@@Jtwes I would guess you're like me, intermediate day, which means you should be able to grow either one, if I understand it right, Dixondale has a lot of good information on growing onions look them up online
Awesome planter like they say when it comes up you will know how well it's spaced. Hope it does well.
Thank You Danny. I’m sure with out a doubt there’s not going to be the same controlled spacing it would have been if we hand planted. Enjoyed porch time I always said I think I would have liked late 1800s to early 1900s
@@Jtwes I've always said I was born 200 years out of time.
I dont recall ever seeing a pull behind planter, just the lift up type. And the hand setter that my father still has that he used back in the 1930 - 1940s.
Looks like we will have to eat garlic stew at the next plow day.
I hope to have some ready to give away. Around my area that were quite a few pull type.
Agro supply has everything new that u will need to the planter that we’re I get everything best tractor I have found for planting with one is a Kubota l2501 and u will have to send u a picture of the planter I bilt for red Patos and garlic and ounces
Hey Dylan
I bought a water valve online from them but that’s really all they had. Getting slim pickings on parts for that planter.
That was really cool, I hope you do plant potatoes with it. I don’t think it really matters with eyes up. I plant them any witch away and they always come up for me.
Hey Ron
I got to thinking about it after the video, and I did plant some with it. William was a little boy and I got daddy to drive. They did really good. I do plan on using it quite a bit this year.
I never saw one of those tobacco planters at work (although I did help harvest it when I was young) but it seems to do the trick on that garlic. The 2 boys had to be fast to keep it fed but I think they stayed up with it pretty good - I guess we'll see if/when they come up 😉. And like you said Joey I thought about planting potatoes with it as well. Seems it would do good with those too. Anyway, thanks to you guys for the video and God bless. See yah on the next one.
I remembered now that I did plant some with it and it did really good. Definitely will try to plant some with it this year.
Did you get to see L B s new combine it’s really nice😊
Hey Dawn
I did. I went and got to ride a few rounds with him before it got to dark.
I have a one row mechanical transplanter that fits on a john deere m used for planting tobacco tomatoes just about any thing you want to transplant tomatoes just drop every other one will plant potatoes just drop them down the shoe worked well for me need to move my planter as honeysuckles trying cover it up hasn't done much last few years need to get back inside bought a cub been cultivating with it maybe mount the planter on the m an leave it on till done planting garden as use to have to take it off to cultivate when was planting tobacco it was on an off bunch off times in the spring to either disk land or to cultivate before I got it all planted
Hey Robert
Thanks for watching. I remember those days when I was younger. Having to take the disk and the back feet on and off the 100 during planting time.
Hey Joey, I have the pick-up type transplanter (Holland) for my 100 like Mark W. Young says he has! I think you can plant Sweet Potato slips and tomatoes with these as well! That is if you're fast enough, lol!
Hey Bobby
Your right. I do need to see if I can idle it down a little next time we plant.
Great video Joey. Really enjoyed it. Sounds like we are going to be raising a lot of the same things this coming year. Really like that setter. Wonder if I could find one? Thanks for sharing. You are going to make farmers out of them boys yet. Hope to see you soon.
They enjoyed it pretty good. Elliott wants to drive his new ride up there when we come.
@@Jtwes that's good .I heard that I'm sure he's excited about it. Looking forward to seeing y'all.
I have 2 tractors (wrong color though 🤫) with creep gear that would be really nice for that, even could handle one person setting. I want to think I have saw a add on gear reduction on a Farmall on a video once. But you could buy a whole lot of garlic for that price I guess. Interesting to see all the different equipment you use that is uncommon here. Seems every region uses attachments that are unheard of to others and region specific
I was surprised to see a comment from a subscriber,that said those planters were common in Canada. Your right though between different regions and farming techniques there’s a lot of different equipment. Yes you did see a creeper gear for a Farmall.
I planted mine Sunday morning here. I did all mine by hand pointed up….. guess we will see if it makes a difference or not 🤔
See which one comes up first.
@@Jtwes we shall see. They got watered a little bit this morning here. When do you plan to plant the taters?
Probably mid March
I just got a planter almost identical to that one, only difference is my water tank attaches to the front left of the tractor
Hey William
Thanks for watching. Ive seen them attached on the right but usually with a lift up planter. Wouldn’t mind having a 1 point lift planter.
@@Jtwes that's right, mine is a lift planter.
Interesting, that's the first pull type I've seen like that. The pull ones I've seen almost have you laying down. Your butt is literally inches off the ground. I inherited a 3 point mechanical transplanter from my Dad. We used a Ferguson 35 to pull it setting tobacco so we went slower. Still use both of them to plant tomatoes and sweet potatoes. Now that I'm watching, those fingers don't grip that tight. I almost think you could put the bulb in the fingers instead of dropping tthem. Potatoes probably wouldn't work that way though.
Hey Jeff
I think your probably right about that. I thought about that but I knew it would be to hard for the boys to keep up. I would need to see if I can get that idle down a little first. Lol
That's a very interesting planter I've never seen a tobacco planter like that. I've see one point and three point cool. How are the turnips coming along.
Good question. That came up good and looked real good and all of sudden some type of bug eat holes in them.
@@Jtwes hate that hope you got to get some of it.
Hey Joey. It looked like the boys were having fun and did OK for zero experience. That planter is something I have never seen, so thanks for sharing. I’m over Covid and we have some exceptional weather for me to finish storing my “toys”. All good. Glad to see everyone involved, including the “dog in the woods “. Leave the cat alone.
Lol You should have seen them , even William wasn’t even looking at what he was filming for watching the dog. 😂
You may take up garlic farming
Funny thing is I haven’t even used any I raised yet. I got a buddy at work who loves it and Sammy likes cooking with it.
Hope you have a market for the garlic. Did you test the soil for PH before using lime
Hope to give it away at plow day next year. I didn’t check the ph . I figured that healthy crop of broom sage right beside it was a indicator it could use some.
Nice. Can you go Is slower?
Yes you can , I need to adjust my idle down a little to do that.
Out of curiosity, what does an old Holland planter generally go for there? They're pretty plentiful here in sw Ontario and go for 200.00 cdn (150.00 US) in working condition with really nice mint ones that are around 500.00 cdn. People here do plant potatoes with them, my neighbour has been since the 60's.
That’s probably about what the bring here. Unfortunately most of them got sold by the pound over the years and came back as a Walmart toaster oven.
@@Jtwes Maybe not Joey. Those old implements were made with USA steel back in those days. The Chinese have their own junk to make those toasters with. 😁
Why so much garlic? You sell it?
Hey Steve
I’ll just give it away. I like raising stuff. I used to raise and give away sweet potato’s until the deer came in hard. Hopefully with a electric fence this year I can raise some again.
That tractor is a little too fast for my liking to set tobacco a cub would be better with that real low 1st gear
I agree totally. If I was riding at that speed I would have had a word of prayer with the tractor driver. Lol 😂 I’ll probably see if I can adjust the idle down when I use it for sweet potatoes.
I would just about fight 10 grown men over one of them transplanters. At the same time! I know a woman down east that plants all manner of stuff with one of them things.
Hey Kimmy
I probably felt that way when we we’re using it for tobacco. Lol Thanks for watching.
