Thank u for your channel.I am 69 years old and can't get out of bed. Due to bad knees and other complications . So I look at ever show an it so nice because there is no bad language ant your family love each other. I like to see your family bless your food some people are ashamed to let people know they love God so please pray for me and my family to thank u Ronnie
Oh that is sweet! I’m sorry you don’t feel good!
Mr McGie you are raising some God loving, hard working and respectful men and women.
Thanks brother!
You are so blessed to have a family that works so hard together! Deo Gratias!
It’s a blessing from God no doubt!
And when you get it done, even if it takes seven days, you will have a feeling like you've accomplished something! Well done.
You know that feeling well brother!
Long time watcher and retired farmer. We used to cut corn stalks a lot try a CHAINSAW with a old chain much easier and faster. Have a great day
Thanks for the tips!
Another great day started off by waking up to a mcgie video
Morning! It’s a great day to be alive!
I think you'll like the wood walls. I like watching y'all making silage.
Thanks so much!
Pawpaw you and the boys make me tired just watching you guys 😅 have a blessed week
Oh we are taking it easy!😂😂😂
My great grand pappy put salt and dried molasses on every layer and it worked great so I still make it that way to this day
Awesome! I’m so happy to hear that!
Opinions are free. Results are not. Well done, McGie clan! Good to see you all making it happen, captain!
Much appreciated! We’ll see soon!
I have enjoyed the silage making videos ! You need one of the rollers they use on the highway to pack it down with lol . We see if this comment comes through this time . Thanks for sharing and have a great day !
I’m going to figure it all out eventually 😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures It don't matter if it's a long comment or short one . I don't say nothing bad .
I completely understand! UA-cam has some serious glitches
Another awesome video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
Dang just to have a crew like that and they are your boys
Nothing to worry about come what may
You’re exactly right! And just think how stupid the people were that said I was crazy for having so many kids! Total idiots!
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures it’s a bad spirit that tries to tell you not to have several kids my Grandmother had 10 children my daughter had 6
2girls 4 boys Jesus loves children the enemy does not
Amen!
Morning Micah, just wondering if you have enough pasture to do regenerative ranching where you just let your cows eat grass and not have to worry about buying feed and making silage. I was just wondering. Not to mention there is a channel I watch called Deep South Homestead. They are in Southern Mississippi. Danny King hss been growing corn for over 40 years and has blended several corn types together for over 30 years. Of course he calls it Danny corn, lol. But this is heirloom and open pollinated. His corn has been shown to grow to at least 15 feet tall and some ears have been as long as 15 inches. It is good for animal feed as well as human. People from all over the country has been able to grow it. Just wondered if maybe you could get a hold of him and see if you could get some from him. Just an idea I thought I'd throw out there. And yes this year was rough on his corn crop too. Before I forget, He and his Wanda started another channel called Pine Grove. That's where last year and this year's corn crop is. They are getting their first Homestead ready to sell. It is 10 acres and they bought 40 acres a few miles from the original 1.
We don’t have that much pasture, but we’re going to try to rejuvenate the one we’ve got! We are desperate for rain and hopefully we will have a wet winter here! We’ll reseed it!
I keep trying to tell Micah he doesn't have enough pasture not to practice intensive grazing. 😉😉😉
😂😂😂
Water tank in the back of a truck will pack lol all about lbs per square inch .. tractor tires are designed to put as little pressure as possible so they don’t get stuck and float
That’s very true!
Great video thanks for sharing keep the cameras rolling from Florida.
Thanks, will do!
keep your sniffer to the chipper
😂😂😂😂😂
Great video, MiCah love the work y’all do. Supposedly we will have another storm coming into the Gulf of Mexico next week. Hopefully this one misses us also, y’all might get some rain out of that thing.
We need it!😅
Frank don't know what he's missing 😅 Chop chop get to it 😂
He might!😂🤣😂
Lol going to be some happy cows come winter work with them youngens get that corn in
Absolutely!
Enjoy your videos but question for you, do you own or could you borrow a sickle mower bar. Remember my father had one on the farm years back. We used it for mowing the roadsides and other stuff. You could cut the corn for silage so much easier and maybe complete a task quicker and move on to your much growing list of projects to complete on the farm.
I’ve got one but it would be a rough way to go I’m gonna do it next year to show people because I get this comment a lot.
You have a thinning saw ? Like a saw blade and string trimmer ? That would cut corn fast fast lol
We’ve got a pole saw!
Biggest pile of sauerkraut I’ve ever seen
😂
Yes indeed!😂
Dude I'm watching the whole video through so that's why there's so many but if you even had a grinder mixer where you can mix it you know grind your corn put your minerals and your salts you know and then feed that with the silage that would be f****** fantastic oh and mmmmm buttermilk Johny cakes made from fresh ground corn meal honey,smoke house bacon bits and grease with cold buttermilk almost heaven country roads take me to Granny's house
I’ve definitely got a grinder mixer!
Have you ever used a sickle mower to cut the corn down? I wonder if it would work.
I’ll try it next year 😂
😄
Be careful on those edges bucko. Lot of pressure
Thanks!
Just curious. Could soybean mulch be mixed in also, for a little extra nutrition?
Perhaps some would be ok but it could potentially cause bloat so I won’t do it.
How many acres do you grow corn on? We did a 1/2 acre of corn for silage this year for our butcher beef. Maybe eco blocks instead of plywood sides?
I’m thinking we grow 6-7 acres, and made silage with 5 of it. My tractor won’t pick up those blocks and that would mean it would be a permanent fixture, maybe somewhere someday!
Great video. I like to watch other people work. 😂 how many of your kids are the age to drive? I was thinking 3 or 4 of them but I’ve not heard you mention their ages much.
Only my oldest two…. A daughter and son!
Excuse me. I noticed a climbing plant around the corn. What is the name of this plant? Did you plant it or does it grow randomly in your area?
It’s growing volunteer and unwanted! Morning Glory
Appalachian
I have one question is your name Micah or Michael?😊
Micah😉
