Nice looking soil. You'll have it worked down nice come next spring. Yeah the cub was doing as best she could with 10-12 horsepower. They are nice garden tractors. Thanks for sharing the video and I hope you can get to cutting beans soon.
55 years ago, I used a Farmall Cub to plow gardens and made good money in High School. Look at the work this 10hp tractor does compared to tractors with 10x the power. Pretty cool except getting the plow hooked up, lol.
A food garden on a farm is almost a de facto standard for showing your independence. Congrats on your successes and thanks for also sharing the disappointments as we follow your farm saga. Honesty, hard work and intelligent decisions are precursors to prosperity. Hope your cup of joy overflows, my friend.
International made such good stuff, everyone had one! Never used a cub, but the B, BN, A and Super A have about the most reliable engine you could ever want, and not just "for their time". Pretty good, for 70 plus years old.
Looks like pretty rich soil that you’re turning over Ethan, Farming is in your blood when out of boredom, you turn dirt in the garden🤣great job young man. Keep em comin🇺🇸💪🏻🇺🇸
My dad and I bought a cub from his neighbor with a plow, and I remember after my grandpa, a John Deere man retired my dad took his restored cub to plow my grandpa's garden and kept spinning with the same plow as my grandpa remarked jokingly, I now know why Cyrus McCormick never invented the plow! It's because he didn't have a tractor powerful enough to pull it!
It might have been a little wet, but it did a fair job considering the roots that were in there. If nothing else, it was fun to watch the cub out there working its little heart out, lol. Shelly will be happy to have a bigger garden. And I agree with a farm having a garden. It just seems to be more complete. See you soon in the next one.
Teeter doesn’t want to stay clean she went right for that freshly plowed dirt. I love her ears the way they point and go from side to side. Nice big garden.
If I remember right I think you said those trees are "pee" "can" trees"... Seems that I thought it was kinda funny cause down south we call them "Pa-con" trees. Either way, the nuts are good eat'in. Great video thanks!
To help here garden let a bale of straw set out in rot then till it in the ground just like we do corn stocks , I usually chisel plow are garden not real deep in the fall . Spring time I use the Kubota and the tiller to stur it up and some 10 10 10 fertilizer before I till it .
Ive got the one point fadt hitch on mine as well. I would love to get a fast hitch mower and the coulter disc to go with ny plow! Great looking equipment!
We have had dry weather and good frosts here in eastern ND. Soys are well along to getting done. Most reports are corn in the 18 to 19% range. Some dryer, some wetter. I tested some of my corn today 18 or a bit higher. 8 and 85 day corn. I blame the Canadian smoke this summer for keeping things wetter longer.
@@Oliver66FarmBoyYou probably would be hard pressed to find any beans in the field still here in Central Illinois now. A lot of the corn was in the 20% - 22% range the middle of September.
There isn't any downforce on the fast hitch, correct? The plow would need some weight to get it in the ground and keep it there. Wishing your weather would start cooperating for harvesting beans. Have over half ours out, but with the rain on Friday, switched back to corn. Thanks for yet another great video!
I always wanted to get a cub, our neighbor when we lived on the beef cattle farm had one with a belly mower on it. The old guy passed on when I was young yet and never was able to find out what happened to the cub
See i was way to young to understand what a fast hitch was back then, He had it fixed up too, took it all apart and painted it piece by piece after sand blasting everything rebuilt the motor, ETC. Did different years have the exhuast out of the hood Vs underneath ? @@Oliver66FarmBoy
@@shaunault7538 when this happened I just put in my first garden. That summer I put in an actual plot I call the Pickle Patch and have to rows of lattice that I found on the roadside. As my Grandma always said there is more than one way to skin a cat.
I've never heard that reasoning before but I suppose in areas where spring /summer rainfall is scarce it is quite reasonable. Over here in the UK forest land being prepared for planting where it is usually really wet and flooded or at least a very high watertable they plough the land in parallel furrows to contour levels on steep land using a crawler and heavily built trailed plough (to cope with roots, stumps and rocks). They plant the young trees on top of the clean, weed free upturned soil. The created furrow acts as a shallow drainage ditch and the covered double sandwich of vegetation rots and breaks down to provides nutrient for the young saplings.@@Oliver66FarmBoy
I wish you and Shelly many decades of happiness together.
I don't mind seeing the red tractors. Especially love the old cub. They're like a swiss army knife. You can do everything with them.
As long as you have enough attachments to outfit them.

Good job, I like the small tractors.
The Cubs pull out a pretty good size tree root When you rotor tiller it this spring it’ll be in good shape be careful, Ethan

Probably gonna end up bigger again next year. Or we will add more boxes. One of the 2.
@Oliver66FarmBoy it should save money on veggies. And fresh grown is always better in my opinion.

She always does.

I don’t know where you claim to live in the south, but in NC we call them pecan too
About as far southeast Texas as one can get. Miami or Brownsville has me beat.@@lancebass9883
Was fun watching reminded me i have to do that with our garden😊😊😊😊😊
I do like your Cub videos.Shiwws how useful .Makes me want one.
Thanks.
Looking good buddy be safe out there your buddy from Nebraska
Thanks.
Ethan, nice seeing the cubs at work. Having a bigger garden for some more sweet corn I think is a great idea👍. Thanks Michael
Thanks.
The starter lever on the newer cub is the factory setup. Ive never seen the long throw rod like the one that pulls easy like you said.
I’ve never paid any attention to other early Cubs.

It’s going to get compost mixed in by spring.
Cool video thanks for posting
Thanks.
Ive got the one point fadt hitch on mine as well. I would love to get a fast hitch mower and the coulter disc to go with ny plow! Great looking equipment!
Gonna have to be patient looking for a mower
Saw the thumbnail and thought what's he up to now. Then I thought Nothing rlse todo so I thought I plow with a CUB. Then the title came up.
Yea

You’re lucky.
@@Oliver66FarmBoyYou probably would be hard pressed to find any beans in the field still here in Central Illinois now. A lot of the corn was in the 20% - 22% range the middle of September.
Just a handy size tractor for small jobs. By the time it freezes and thaws a few times, ought to mellow out by next spring.
Yep
Love the videos Ethan your my one of my favorite YT channels keep up the good work and Go Bucks
Good job - thanks for sharing
Thanks.
Right there with you corn to wet still and can't get more than one day of sun at a time. So no beans since last week.
There isn't any downforce on the fast hitch, correct? The plow would need some weight to get it in the ground and keep it there.
Wishing your weather would start cooperating for harvesting beans. Have over half ours out, but with the rain on Friday, switched back to corn.

You can put down force on the fast hitch.
There isn’t downforce on any 3pt? Lol
@@Oliver66FarmBoy
Thanks for the reply. I’m not real familiar with fast hitches.
Fun little video
Thanks.
Good job something different thanks
Thanks.
All my cub stuff is OG bolt-on. Not a lot of fun to change implements.
That’s why the 57 gets used more than the 48.
Really like your dad's cub
Well, it was something useful to do for now. Here's hoping for a dryer week!
Hoping.
It's a factory lever on the starter I have 2 cubs both have the tall lever
Y’all must have some hard ground up there in Michigan e are in NE Ohio and it is stupid sandy
You need to sit a little harder to get enough traction. 😂😂

They are handy. Get one with a fast hitch.
See i was way to young to understand what a fast hitch was back then, He had it fixed up too, took it all apart and painted it piece by piece after sand blasting everything rebuilt the motor, ETC. Did different years have the exhuast out of the hood Vs underneath ?

The name of the tree may be Hickory
Cucumbers are just as bad as pumpkins tried some cucumbers in my garden and they took over the side yard😅 good thing I like sweet and sour pickles.
There's way to keep that from happening
@@shaunault7538 when this happened I just put in my first garden. That summer I put in an actual plot I call the Pickle Patch and have to rows of lattice that I found on the roadside. As my Grandma always said there is more than one way to skin a cat.
She ended up with more cucumbers than she knew what to do with to. Apparently they like the manure compost we filled the raised beds with.
Ahoj. Nebylo lepší vzít rýč a bylo by to taky hotové 😊❤
Oak trees drop nuts. Acorns
They were pecan trees.
@Oliver66FarmBoy one of the curses of Autism. I remember damn near everything.
Well you can at least you can say you have a start on fall tillage
I guess.
Ethan, what year(s) where the Cubs built?
57 and 48.
Hi Ethan!
Slide hitch all the way to right for proper width of cut
I like the trenches to capture water over winter.
I've never heard that reasoning before but I suppose in areas where spring /summer rainfall is scarce it is quite reasonable.

Little thing did well until the root got in the way.
Yea.
