Planting our our new Hay Field with a custom Grass Mix
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 вер 2021
- Today I am finally planting our new Hay Field. The field will mostly be grass hay. We are planting orchard grass, meadow fescue, Timothy, and medium red clover. We are going to use a 3 point broadcast spreader to distribute the grass seed on the hay field. Then we are going to use a cultipacker to roll over the field and press the seed into the soil.

We live in southeastern Illinois on a 41 acres homestead. We just finished building our log cabin overlooking our pond. We are trying to grow our own food and raise livestock. Follow us on our journey living the rural life and developing our property and becoming more self sufficient.
Enjoy watching
Hey Evan you want it to rain? Wash the tractor and the truck and the car it always happens .lol
Not too many people would have thought of a cement mixer for getting a uniform mix 🤔!
The seed coverage was impressive. Let’s pray for good germination. That field will be a bonus for your hay harvest and farm income. Thanks Evan.
Good use for concrete mixer
I believe that you were pulling a roller packing the hay seed..you mentioned a cultipacker, they would have a set if cultivating teeth along with a packer
The field looks good. Hope you get a drizzly rain to get it to grow. Now go to work...[just kidding]. Hope your work schedule slows down soon, I miss the videos.
Amen, Nole brother ... Evan seems to be getting the hang of it regards this hayfield. BTW: you might like Field Rows channel, from maybe 100 miles northwest of Tallahassee ... And man, do we need a quarterback.
So helpful! Thank you!
Looks great. well done
Good morning from Grand Forks
Run a light set off harrows over it in front of the roller mate
Good morning from the south of England
Looks awesome
great video
L@@king good! 👏 👍 😊
I'm learning
The field looks great Evan and will look even better when the hay is growing.
Clean Your cab filter now and blow out engine filters.
I worked up My field and My filters were pretty much plugged full of dust and debris. Really enjoyed the drone footage. Hopefully Your long stretch of 12 hour work is almost over. Stay safe.
That old mixer that you got sure has paid for itself.
thx
That field looks pretty good. The old roller did a good job. 👍👍
Enjoy watching all your hard work. I feel for ya though having to pay for the rise in gas prices sure puts a dent in farm profits! Vote!
I'm so glad to see you on the homestead!!! Glad your getting it seeded down!!!!! God bless you!
Amen, to all that.

You look very happy with a job well done.👏 😀 😊 ☺ 😄
Really enjoy your show, your my #1 show.
I enjoy ALL of your videos so much. Watching you and Rebekah build your future business from that old overgrown farm into what you have made it today has been very enjoyable ❤️ You two are so smart in doing this now, when you are still working full-time. It is the right way to go about it. I am 🙏🙏🙏 for rain for you. Thank you so much for sharing

Cambridge roller we call them in NZ
You just really need enough rain to make the moisture meet. 1/2 to 3/4 inch.
Good Luck Evan.
Great job!!!
Making hay!
Next time you plant seed go mow a hay field. That should make it rain for a week.
in the uk we call that a cambrige roller
You've done just about all there is to do, Evan. Now comes the hardest part of farming...waiting.
Have an awesome and blessed day!
You can still get corrugated wheels for your roller as an option. It is called a Cambridge roller
Nice job Evan. Our culipacker we used looked exactly like yours! That should make a good hay field. When you come off your hectic work schedule it will make you wonder how you got it all done! Give lots of credit to Rebekah! Love watching your videos and as always thanks for taking us along with you.
Always plant seed under a new moon.
Going to be a rough ass hay field.
Well you have done your part very well, it now up to good old mother nature to do her part !
Very nice good looking field, rolling also will make it great for making hay will the 🌞 👍👍
ny father use to say milking cows make sweeter milk with clover
Looking good, pray for rain.
Is that a Silva Brothers shirt - as in Tommy Silva of This Old House fame?!?! You’ll have to send him one of your shirts!
Just let's hope for that rain, moderate
Nice T-Shirt! I have one just like it. Silva Brothers
We used those V rollers to bust clay dirt clods that would dry as hard as rock, with concrete blocks setting in the holders on top.
Be sure to keep the neighbors from using round up on this field!!😂
Enjoying your videos here in Memphis.
The field looks amazing. Well done!
Good job young man!

This summer has FLOWN by so fast that we're behind with canning. Hope to catch up this weekend. Also hoping your garden turned out well for your needs.
Cambridge Rolls , perfect for the job .
I like the way you explain things. I'm impressed with the way you produce your videos.
You explain you farming techniques so any man can comprehend and go out and plant hay.
Great job.
Time for a rain dance 😁
Great job Evan…. Your hay field looks amazing!!
You gotta do a rain dance on that field.
As usual Evan great job, looks real neat Dave
I love a cultipacker. In a few days the depressions made by the cultipacker will turn green.
Get rid of that circle mower 😃😃👍
Hope you get some rain.
Great video seed spread looks great
I was just looking at your red wonder and thinking that it really deserves some TLC after a dusty workout! 🏴
Looks great! Be safe!
Field looks awesome Even.
Looks like that mixer is paying you back. #seeyainthenextone

JudithB It looks good, now for rain!!!
Jeezz Evan, You are rockin this field. Good Job.
Keep us posted on the progress
In the future, mix ratios by weight of Pure Live Seed (PLS)... not weight of seed type. I was a seedsman for years and helped many, many of farmers get exactly what they wanted out of their fields.
Good video hope u get some rain
Great seing you will be good to see it sprout up
Awesome job. Your field is in excellent condition. Praying you get some good soaking rains now🙏🏻
I enjoy your attitude towards farming! I hope to start next year. Best of luck to you and yours!
I had a roller like that with oak bearings, they worked pretty good.
Love to watch your love for your farm.
Thanks for sharing with us Evan, the field looks great, hopefully it will be green before long. Looks great around there. Stay safe and keep having fun. Fred. 🙏🏻🙏🏻👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👋👋
Good video Evan, hope everything comes up fine.
So a trick for orchard grass is when you mix it with other seed you can not shake them together because orchard grass will separate it self from other seeds
Field looking good Evan, you're going to get a Good crop, enjoying all your videos keep them coming.👍👍
