Some people have an ax to grind with whatever you do. It’s best not to waste time with people that are pessimistic about anything you do. Life is to short for that.
@@gregjudyregenerativerancher yes sir... and jealousy and envy are ugly monsters to get away from, but I pray those who have them can overcome, in time! Blessings!
Thanks for the visual on those parts! We got a lease today, Greg! It's pretty exciting for us. We are thankful for it! 🙏. Thanks for imparting your knowledge on Regenerative farming.
Greg this video and ones like it are worth so much! Thank you for doing this. For ranchers like us who didn't grow up doing it or have been doing the wrong way our whole life...this was amazing. Thank you!
Thanks for the demonstration and the information. You recommended the things that work and that you use, and to save other from learning the hard way. Even with you not being a dealer for the you are one of their best advertiser / sales men the have. Hope you all have a Blessed day.
Jesus said a man is worthy of his wage. And Greg, your knowledge and expertise is valuable, if it were not, no one would be watching. Ignore those who complain, they always will. God bless you and your wife abundantly! Huggs from Texas.
Thanks for the video! When I get there I’ll be ready with all your awesome advice! I was thinking putting one every 250 feet then have a long hose to the tank since we don’t have many animals. Our property is long and narrow. It’s like 2700 feet length and width is ranges 120-900+ feet width. The back half of the property I was thinking of putting a pond and make a rock skirt at different parts of the pond. All those connections are so easy to do yourself.
Greg, I value your endorsements. I've been loving my Jobe Rojos, they are flawless. Any suggestions on manifolds? All the ones from all the big box stores are, of course, junk (I've went through a few). Thanks for all that you share with us 🙏 Also, I always found it easier to apply teflon tape by holding it with the tab hanging down on the back instead of in the front, not much unlike Isaac's pet the cat method with the bale unroller. As an aside I unrolled my first bale a few days ago, it was a very satisfying experience. I will be doing a few more and cant wait for the results.
We use these and a low pressure version for gravity fed systems. Unfortunately our frost can go 4’-6’ into the ground so we have to come up with other solutions for the winter.
Greg thanks for the advice! You’ve given away so much FREE knowledge that it’s a shame people get upset if you have an endorsement deal. Your allowed to make money just like anybody else. Plus I don’t recall you ever recommending a poor product. I’ve bought some of the things you’ve shown and like them all. Thanks again
In previous videos, you had said the depth in Missouri was 16-18”; was there some catastrophe that made y’all put the pipes deeper? The distance between the coupler and the pipe in this demonstration is only about 6” in length it looks like; do you use extensions for it in the field to reach the pipes so far down? PEX is just plain cheaper and can be buried with a tractor using a subsoiler attachment. 3/4” is available on VEVOR for less than 50c/ft. Was there some issue you have had with PEX in the past, or what disqualifies it in your experience?
I use the Plasson quick connectors - and a Kiwitech drag trough for cattle. They're excellent - in winter I cable tie wool food insulation sheets around the quick connectors to prevent freezing. I bought spares of each this week; in the UK the pre-tax prices: Male 'Key': £8.13 Female 'Coupling Valve': £14.99
The Philmac Female Tee 1 1/4 is priced at $42.72 at Powerflex today. Quick coupler is $15.25. 6" or 8" PVC prices are pretty high as well, so I'm estimating another $25-30 for that per water point. Total is $90-100 per station.
Thanks Greg. I will be installing water on some paddocks this year and looking for a good way to supply it. You are correct hydrants are a pain. One caution, especially for any dairy farm users. You can't use that style float valve on a potable water supply as it is a submerged inlet.
Depending on how long you have frost. You can get away with shallower pipe but you have to let the water trickle to prevent freezing. I’m in CT and have a bunch buried only 18-24 inches deep.
I’m worried about the water freezing in the supply line at the connection point when not in use. And with our frost line being at 48” my arm is not long enough. I have the quick connect parts but until I can adapt to my environment I’m hesitant. I am definitely open to suggestions and willing to try ideas because I’m sold on the quick connect idea
@@jonathannelson8070 I haven’t done this but an idea I have is to have the quick connect below frost and then have the male end on a ridged pipe of proper length so you can connect the 2.
Greg, I wish you would have a link for all these companies that I could order through so you could grab a few % points. This is great advice about all these water products. Get one for #timelessfence too

Not according to some people, they just get plain mad about it.
@@gregjudyregenerativerancher ignore them and keep depositing the checks! Tim

Yep

Another rock star video
Thanks for teaching us Greg
See you in May
Thanks Greg for the info.
Keep Smilin!!!!
Had watched other of your water videos and this one clarified exactly how each part works, appreciate your time and efforts 🙏

That doesn’t matter to some people, they have to much hate and envy when folks are successful.

Thanks for sharing this. I want to set some water lines up on our farm this summer.
Could not use these in freezing temperatures like ohio, correct?
the Teflon is a lubricant that allows you to tighten the joint more ... not a sealant

Still cheaper than a good hydrant. Don't have to worry about cattle breaking them off either.
Yes it is. I recently priced this system out for my farm, so I had the numbers handy.
Who makes the quick cupler?
Plasson
You could use a clear plastic bin for demonstrations of a water tank. Otherwise, good job on the demonstration. It was really helpful.

Greg, I bought 500' of the continental hose and an industrial reel. Its too HEAVY to drag around in the pasture! How do you handle it??
Can you use a quick disconnect?
How would you adapt for an area where our water needs to be 4’ down? How do you manage your set up to avoid freezing?

That’s the thing. I know I can trust the tools you recommend because your not willing to sell your soul for a quick buck.
