    Watching you plow the sugar cane brought back so many childhood memories. I recall the cane being cut and processed under the shed, using the juice to cook down into molasses, with several families helping. All of us kids would be given a joint of cane to chew on and keep us out of the way. Hard work for the adults, but good times.

  • @jamesranger6283

    Great. The advantage to the cub cultivator system is that you can adjust it how ever you want. There is no set of specific adjustments. Your crop your choice. Nice. We have been using our cub and attachments since it was purchased in new in 1949. Its job was preparing and maintaining crops of strawberries and potatoes, a farm garden, haying and firewood in the fall. The Cub and the super A were the most versatile small farm tractors ever built.

    Danny, I already told you that my sainted maternal grandpa had a Farmall Cub and wore bib overalls. Riding on that groovy tractor, you remind me of him, except you're a LOT skinnier, a bit shorter (I was a tad under 6'6" in my youth) and have a pony tail. Also, he always wore a hard safari-type hat when doing farm chores. He had 30+ acres that is still in the family. He raised all the usual animals for food: chickens, rabbits, geese, pigs, 2 milk cows and a beef cow or two. He'd get up early, put on his overalls and rubber boots and go do the morning chores. Then he would come in the house, take off the overalls, eat the breakfast grandma made for him, put on a suit and tie, go down to the furniture store and sell furniture, come back home and reverse the process for the evening chores. He and grandma had 10 kids, my mom being #4. Part of why I love your YT channel so much is because of how much you remind me of him. He even had a pond, and my mom saved a little neighbor boys life who almost drowned in the pond. She swam out, brought him to shore, put him on the pond bank head downhill and gave him artificial respiration. Grandpa Irvin was gifted with a special genius for making ANY chore fun for the kids who were helping him. God bless you and Wanda for all you do to help educate people in the skills of self-sufficiency. You and I both know we're going to need those skills before the cultural crisis in America is over.

    Oh my goodness. When I was a little girl, we were renting a farm. The much older high school kids were smoking behind the barn and set it on fire. The owner lived across the street and she farmed the land. So while the barn was fully engulfed, my dad ran in the barn with the keys and rescued the lady's tractor. It was a farmall. I still remember it as if it were yesterday. Farming was the lady's income and she let us use about an acre to grow vegetables for our family. I think the tractor was bigger because it had blades that would go all across the back but it was a 1940s or 1950s model. Couldnt have been newer because I was born in 1953. Just love your channel. Reminds me of good times when growin up.

    I have an Allis Chalmers B with cultivators and setup the same as you for laying down row covers in the spring. First I make the trench on both sides with the disc turned out. Then lay the cover down, turn the disc in and cover the edge. I find that the more I flatten out the disc to the travel there's a sweet spot where it turns the soil real well. I can send a rooster tail of dirt or a smidge of dirt. I also use them to hill corn and beans in a couple acres as well. I have them turned in so as to put dirt on the row to cover the in row weeds. Good job on the tractor restoration. Looks real good.
