      @@RobertWelkerFarmerBob I hope the last few weeks of being dry isn’t a trend! Here in PA, we haven’t had rain in a month. We had a few days in April of downpours that made my 50 gallon rain barrel overflow for 2 days. Haven’t had a single drop since. Not the norm for us.
      Looked like Nick was planting into good moisture, hopefully the crops have had a good start.

    Sometimes the hoses from the sensor to ecu get holes in them and produce ghost blockages. And the odd time the port on the ecu goes bad, so switch the hose to an unused port but don’t forget to change which port those run to in your configuration. That fixed two ghost blockages for us this year.

    I was born in 71, that little bud is making me feel old, but i like it better than the new stuff, so i'm not old. All the different stages from prepping the field's all the way through harvest, is like relearning with you guy's. When i was a kid, my family did a lot of corn and alfalfa over here in lower mid michigan, because we had dairy cow's, a few hogs, along with around 3000 acres of corn, and a couple hundred of alfalfa, and i really miss all that. Thanks for the video's, because no matter what you grow, it's still great every year. G-d bless.

    Big bud really leaking but you can get it through planting season and then slow the leaks some. Yeah.
    The old big bud that Bob is using is doing a good job. Alright!!!!! Getting the seed in the ground.
    That old road is in rough shape. Easy does it going over that road with machinery. Scott is trying to make it better to use.
    About it I guess. You all take care and be safe.

Such a rewarding life!
