i'm really glad I came across your channel and subscribed. I follow a few select channels and based on discussion, drone footage, learning/teaching content; I'm glad that I added yours in the last few months. Keep up the great work Carson, and of course your dad.
Great stuff Carson, brings back memories for me also, I, like your dad grew up cultivating corn, great northern and pinto beans and sugar beets…wish we would’ve had a machine that big and nice😂lots of time on farmalls with small equipment…keep em comin young man 🇺🇸
A buddy of mine planted peas one year. He put so much dirt through his combine picking them up he has never grown them since. The little tangly things allow garden peas to climb fences and things like corn stalks. It keeps them off the ground and less susceptible to mildew.
Have not seen your j b weld motorcycle this year ? Nathan Baker @ border view recently noted that the lack of rain HIGHLIGHTS every small error made during planting . Too deep, too shallow, planted through mud, & so forth 🗽🇺🇸🚜
Great video and looks like the lift wheel assist helps picking the unit up easily and not so much stress on the 3pt. Yes use to use a 8 row John Deere cultivator back with my family farmed and had a John Deere rotary hoe for our beans back then.Looking forward to seeing the progression of the corps this year. May you and your family continue to be blessed.
@6thGenFarmer this year we are running about 4300 acres of organic crops almost all of it gets culvated. They are easy to adjust and stay in place very well. I'm running one right now with C shanks for side dressing the conventional corn I've only had to tighten down one row twice and that's because it needed a new lock washer. After today I'm done and have done 2500 acres
I remember WALKING BEANS with a small hook blade 1000 acres. Then when Round Up came out we rode on seats across a rear bar that we could spot spray velvet leaf 🍃 etc with spray wands as tractor 🚜 pulled us down the Rows. Now everything is automated precision spraying.
Canning peas are about a 60 day crop from planting to harvest,being you cultivate your organic beans do you have less problems with white mold? I read someplace this winter that cultivating can help taking out the mushroom type producer of the spores
soybeans typically even themselves out by harvest. They mature by the amount of sunshine during the day so the later ones will start turning earlier than they are supposed too. If you google soybeans under streetlights you will see some pretty cool pictures of perfectly green soybeans surrounded by ready to harvest soybeans
As much as I see your point, we’re zero input, zero till organic. Very little equipment, low number of passes. You’ll grow more towards that, for now, your doing everything right for where you’re at. The main thing is getting your soil right. The crops that pay are merely a byproduct of the most vital crop, which is microbial and below the ground. It will go a lot slower for you without good lighter weight good grass fed genetics livestock. But it will still happen. It’s good you’re not betting the farm, and taking it slow.
This video was recorded before the last one. Plus our dealerships base station is off about 3ft to where it should be so the autopath lines don’t match up. Next year we will be planting and autopathing with it for sure!!
The organic fields look great! Good to see the peas.. I can't wait to see how those are harvested.
I FELL ASLEEP IT SUCKED
What a beautiful day you had that day, not one cloud. Blue sky, green fields! Keep up the great videos.

Awesome, thank you!
All this technology is turning Ryan's hair grey 👍

Thank goodness the cannery combines these for us!
Glad to see the cultivator seems to be working out well.
The FS version of the 846 is almost done!
Can't Wait!
Growing up on the farm dad listed his crops in and the we made 3 cultivator passes. We threw it on them threw it out and then laid it by.

The dirtbike hasn’t been ridden yet but now that the crops are taller it probably will soon

Thank You for the great comment!
Great video .
Glad you enjoyed it
Lorenz makes a damn good cultivator and solid. We have 6 different ones at work
Good to know

Good farming friend🙏
Yes, thank you
You should get a tine weeder for the peas and do a blind pass in the pre emergence stage even for soybeans and corn its a really good tool to have

A Schweiss bean rider??
I still cultivating is the way to go. Loosen up the soil

I'll have to look into white mold and cultivating. I know that moving from 15" rows to 30" rows helps reduce it a fair amount by itself
A lower population also helps with white mold
Fields look great! What size shovels do you use on the 856?
Did you get a chance to look what size shovels you have? I am setting one up for organic.

What is your plan for when the 2nd wave of soybeans or the smaller ones .. stay green when you harvest because the rest are ready to harvest?
soybeans typically even themselves out by harvest. They mature by the amount of sunshine during the day so the later ones will start turning earlier than they are supposed too. If you google soybeans under streetlights you will see some pretty cool pictures of perfectly green soybeans surrounded by ready to harvest soybeans
What is your soil moisture situation ❓
just use a rock roller (land roller)
We did on the rocky part of the farm. We don’t roll very much

Someone obviously 🙄 does not have a garden or otherwise one would know where the pod grows. 😅
Haha nope, no garden😂
No CRG?
