The outdoors has always held a powerful attraction for me. Whether it's the woods and fields of Ohio, the ocean and beaches of the coast, mountains, lakes or the desert I am drawn to experiencing the outdoor environment.
For a guy working a desk, it's hard to beat getting away to my property in Southeastern Ohio where life is a little slower and the outdoors is at my door step. While I get into lots of projects, my primary focus is habitat management and improvement for wildlife as I work to reclaim over 80 acres of a 1970's strip mine to native habitat. I call this effort the Habitat Oasis Project as my goal is to create an area that is so attractive to wildlife that it draws them in from miles away.
Join me on my adventures in southern Ohio as well as wherever my travels may take me. Spring, summer, fall and winter, #OutdoorsIsAlwaysInSeason!

Good info on this for.. makes sense
What a transformation. Well done, Jason!
Thanks! I wasn’t expecting it to turn out so well!
Interested to see them pour the inside.
It was pretty cool to watch. Video coming soon!
you are a cool dude thanks for the info
Thanks! Glad it was helpful.
I inherited a large family farm that has been "wilding" for 40 years and we're covered with autumn olive everywhere. As a test, we used our John Deere 50D excavator with a 4' brush hog to knock some of it down and we'll brush hog it for several seasons to keep it down before we resort to chemicals. May even disk and plant clover or some other cover variety to keep the deer fat :D This video came in handy for us! Thanks for making and a great video!
Glad it was helpful. I’m planning an autumn olive video as well. We have probably work 50+ acres to reduce the autumn olive. Some field and some in the woods. Keep fighting the good fight!
@@HardyLifeOutdoors So I just got out of the woods and tried a different tactic with these damn autumn olives even though it's summer (June 16). The week rental with the brush hog on the excavator expired but we have a John Deere 5055E 4 wheel drive tractor with a 520M loader which both are pretty beefy. I realized that after some trial and error, I can pop the root bulb of these things out of the ground pretty simply and consistently... then push them all into a pile to be dealt with later and drag them to a burn pile. I can't convey how happy I am that I didn't need to chem or buy another piece of equipment to deal with these things at this point!! If you're interested in more details, let me know. I may try to put up a video showing the tractor technique. 🍻
That is one of the techniques we have used. Definitely works well with a larger tractor. A few learnings from that. Be careful to keep the broken material in front of you. We have put sticks through the radiator and ripped hydraulic hoses off the tractors. Just need to be aware of what’s sticking up. Don’t pile your brush piles on top of an area where there was an autumn olive bush. The roots will grow a bush back and it will come up through your brush pile where it is hard to get at Popping them out will remove the large plant but there will still be a living root system in the ground that will resprout. If you spray them right away with glyphosate you will reduce grow back. Those that do grow back and can later be bush hogged or sprayed. We have used the USDA EQIP program to help with removal. They paid us around $150 an acre for removal and $25 per brush pile that we created. We were able to recoup around $800 for one 3 acre area we cleared. Good luck and keep at it. Take pictures, it’s nice to be able to see the before and after, especially when you feel like you aren’t making a difference.
@@HardyLifeOutdoors Wow! Thats excellent info regarding the USDA program! We're in western WV (Ohio Valley area - not too far from you) so we may also qualify for that program. Which USDA initiative would this project fall under? Great insight regarding the tractoring technique. You definitely have to keep the brush IN FRONT of the tractor as much as possible and clean up your immediate work area of other saplings and such that are more than happy to take out hoses and wiring (ask me how I know!) Our property is a lot of acreage and since the tractor will see a lot of time in the woods and brush doing this type of work, I have to upgrade the protection on the tractor and operator station or else the tractor will get damaged and I was at risk when in certain areas. We have massive mature vines (as big as your upper arm) that have grown out of the autumn olive (and other small trees) up into mature timber and trees that pose a hazard when pushing the brush around when the vines are tangled above and tug on the overhead limbs. Those vines are tough!! As such, I'm seriously considering a package from this outfit: www.grtractors.com/productpages/agriculturaltractorpages/agriculturaltractor (if the link doesn't post, search for grtractors.com - agricultural tractors. A John Deere 333G high flow skid steer (similar to what is shown @ 4:16 in your video) is in our future but we don't have it yet but will make much quicker work of these buggers. 🍻
If you buy one of those, I’ll be watching your TH-cam channel! Eqip programs are brush management for covering autumn olive and if I recall correctly habitat for wildlife covers the brush piles. They were reluctant to do the brush piles but I told them I wouldn’t do the brush management with out it.
Just a man, his tractor, and the great outdoors. Keep up the great work brother.
Thanks Andy! It was a good day for sure!
I try to give you a thumbs up but it doesn't register. Keep up the GREAT work!
Thanks Dusty!
👍
It’s coming along!
Its typically 2-4 oz per gallon for most weeds depending on species and size. It doesn't have to be that complicated.
That might be the formula for a hand sprayer but certainly not how you measure for a sprayer on an atv or tractor.
$89 for that same bottle today. FJB.
And that’s the price coming down.
Congrats on the new 1025R. I see you got the hat on this purchase. lol
Heck yea! Always have to get the hat!
How is it that your neighbor has no fence or barrier around a finished pool? Hope there are no children in the neighborhood.
They have an auto cover on their pool. It’s like a heavy duty fabric garage door that locks into the sides and the end. When the pool is open, it rolls up and is stored inside the patio. Our area accepts that cover in place of a fence. We will have a fence as we don’t want to have to have the pool covered every time we are not in the immediate area.
How much is concrete a square yard in you neck of the woods? Thanks Mike from Virginia.
Just talked to the guy that did the concrete in my barn and he says $7 a foot for prep, concrete and finishing. That’s in SE Ohio
most good weed killer quadrupled in price what's going on
Shot up during and after Covid but has come down quite a bit.
Biden....
Yep
I'm planting live flowers, not using seed. How long should I wait after spraying to plant live plants? Great video by the way!
Glyphosate acts on a plant by being absorbed through the leaves and stems so you should be fine immediately but I would give it 24 - 48 hours just to be sure the don’t make contact with any wet gly that might be on the ground.
Awesome stuff! Thanks for the shout out!!
Yea man! Can’t wait to see my plots and get some pics to share.
I too have this same sprayer. Before purchasing saw the reviews about the bottom bolts causing leaks. My remedy for this problem, do not use bolts. I use strips of non-skid router table mat. Place between frame and tank. Use straps to lock it down. I use on my tractor with zero tank movement. Sprayer works great!
Glad you found a solution. I tried it without the bolts but didn’t use a non slip material and it slipped on the frame. I now own a frontier LS2006 and love it!
What if you didn’t put the bolts in and just use the straps?
I tried that and the tank shifted on the frame.
Great information! have a like!
Thanks for watching. Glad you liked the video. Jason
Good video, it caught my eye because I too got a 2023 1025R this year and I am moving it. I found your channel through the video glyphosate and thought it was very well well informative!
Glad to see you found me and the videos are helpful. I have a lot of 1025R videos. Let me know if there are any topics your would like to see me cover. Jason
Worthless video
Great video I’d swear you are a teacher or coach
Oh yea? Thanks! I’m a technology marketing guy but have done a lot of training over the years and have coached some youth sports. Hope the video was helpful to you.
Howdy Jason! Working on getting caught up on all your videos... been out of service for a while and am just getting back into my regular channels. The apple trees look great! I didn't get mine pruned this off season... so will probably have a bunch of small apples if a late frost doesn't thin the blossoms down. Last year there was no late frost and I had apples coming out my ears lol. Good job my friend - thanks for sharing 🤠
Hey Steve. They are coming along. For the age they are they would be doing much better if we had better soil but no major complaints. I am hoping the pruning results in a better crop of apples. Need to get out there and do some better cleanup and mulching around them. Hope you are doing well.
I've always been taught to go by the 5 hp per foot rule. 20-25 hp = 48 inch. 25-30 hp = 60 inch. Ect, ect.
I’ve heard that as a rule of thumb as well. Lots of people out there damaging these small tractors without realizing it. It may not break right away but overtime you are going to damage the tractor if you go to large on implements.
Fantastic video, love the depth!!!
Thank you! Hope it was helpful!
The strap on the Solo attaches to one side of the hopper, the other end of the strap attaches to the body of the spreader. That may make it more comfortable for you.
Thank you! Others have mentioned that.
Added a Curtis cab to my 2018 1025 r.. this change in COG has drastically made my tractor more tippy. I am very cautious using my tractor on any degree of incline now. Even using my snowblower crossways on my driveway apron can get you a bit nervous. I have added ballast to tires , use a quick hitch with weight bar and 4 suitcase weights @ 40lbs. Kept low. Hard to get used to that feeling. Not sure if JD makes any design changes if you order a new 1025R with their factory cab. Guess I’ll try a set of wheel spacers next.
I can imagine a cab would change the COG quite a bit. I would be curious to see how much you gain with every inch of wheel spacer you add. Does it give you 1 degree. 2 degrees? I also wonder about being “tippy”. I’ve never rolled a tractor but a pucker factor has made me nervous. Was I really that close or just a bit puckered?
Interesting that the math for these problems are nonexistent. I found a nice ballast vs front axle video last week. Tip angles should be more accessible vs the bullshit tippy stuff. I get concerned over 15° but many do up to twice that. I plan to level out my property holes. FYI small plot BX but some challenges.
Yea. I need to buy a gauge or something for my tractor to get a sense for how out of level I am. I think the pucker factor kicks in well before the rollover is imminent.
Read your comment to my post at a Facebook group focused on the John Deere 1025R tractors. Thats how I found this video. Thank you.
Hope it was helpful. I was hauling my tractor all over the place on my trailer thinking it was insured and then I asked. News to me that it wasn’t!
2-4-D for Broad leaf.
That’s what I was thinking as well just wasn’t sure if it is safe for switchgrass? Do you know?
Not to Expensive here in Virginia. Get a gallon and try a Small area. Been using it a long time on my yard but I'm afraid to say about Switch grass . M.D.Sears
Thanks I’ll do a little research.
Also I was thinking that's thermoplastic so you could try to repair with a soldering iron or even just heat a piece of scrap metal and try to repair the crack. I just did a search on "rotomold tank repair" and a guy did this exact thing with a polyethylene plastic weld repair kit.
I’ll check that out.
I'd recommend keeping everything and getting a rotomold tank from an AG supply. Many of those tanks are designed to use straps like what you have. I've seen some people don't put the bottom bolts in and just rely on the straps for the reasons you mentioned. I just bought a 45gal version that only has pawls to hold in it place. Who knows if it's an updated design because they still sell that 40gal version at TSC.
Thanks for the tips. I still have all the parts so I might just try a repair. I tried mounting one of the tanks without the bottom bolts and it didn’t stay put on the frame.
Cropcare made in lititz pa
I’ll have to check that out sometime.
Earthway is good at throwing granular or seed. I own a pest control company, and we do a lot of tick treatments using bifenthrin granular. Earthway covers your arms and fills your pockets with whatever you are spreading. The strap is extremely uncomfortable when you are filling them and using them all day. Scotts spreader is not even an option. I just ordered hooyman chest spreaders and am waiting to see how they work.
Yea I don’t wear them for hours at a time so can’t comment on that. I can vouch for pockets full of seed though!
That pool is going to be real nice. You and your family will enjoy this for a lot of years
We are very excited about it. Definitely looking forward to some relaxing pool days!
Wondering why you kept the smaller tractor when you got the bigger one? Thanks
Well..actually. I had a 2016 1025R for 6 years and I sold it after I bought the 4052R. I found that the 1025R was just sitting in the barn. After selling it I started to realize I still had some use cases for it so in 2023, I started shopping for a new 1025R and purchased one. I am really liking the flexibility of having a 1025R and a 4052R. Definitely some mowing jobs that are easier with the 1025R. Thanks for watching and commenting!
We had a neighbor spray this religiously along our fence line bc apparently we brought weeds with us to the neighborhood. He would spray during high winds. It was constant. I have video of him doing it with our dog out we begged him not to. And he had a huge field with a ditch he didn’t spray that he let weeds go to seed in. Our dog died from kidney failure at 5 years old. There are lawsuits out about this causing cancer. *she was the best being I have ever known best dog to ever live.
Sorry to hear about your dog. I am aware of the lawsuits and am aware that it is deemed safe when used properly. Using it in high winds is not proper use.
oh yah, totally not a design flaw...it's totally normal to have to stop every 20-30 minutes to clean it out when mowing a lawn or clearing brush with it. No issues when doing other types of work, but c'mon. That's a design flaw since these are primary use cases for these models. I get that you disagree, but you're just wrong. There is no reason to buy a tractor that can't run all day due to 20 minutes worth of dust being kicked up. It's stupid to even buy one with these issues.
Between my brother and I we own 6 different models of tractors of 3 different makes. All will collect debris on the front screen, and need cleared, when working in an environment that kicks up leaves and fluffy pollen. When I hired a guy to clear autumn olive with a CAT skid steer and mulching head he commented that he would check his radiator through the day for leaf and debris collecting. The fans are designed to pull outside air across the radiator fins and cool it. The grill screens and secondary screens are designed to catch debris before it lodges in the radiator screen. A pretty good design that apparently is flawed by at least 4 top tractor manufacturers and their engineers. Please share your credentials and experience so we can understand what your feedback is based on.
Beautiful tractor and sprayer. Good ones for tractor or utv are $3-4000. Hard to know whether I should spend that much for food plot sprayer. Buy once cry once? Love the videos.
This one cost me a little over $2000. No regrets! Thanks for watching and commenting! Jason
What happened to the Hardy Brothers channel??
Hey Josh. Thanks for asking. The Hardy Brothers channel still exists but is focused on Josh and his content. We made the decision last year to split our content so that long term we would each have an asset we could grow into retirement. Appreciate your continued support! Jason
That looks to be the answer! I may go to Deere and check it out as I have suffered the same frustrations with lesser quality sprayers as you have. It gets old fixing them every time you want to use them
You aren’t kidding Jim! Other than my dumb mistake of leaving water in the filter over the winter and letting it freeze, this sprayer has been awesome! Thanks for watching, commenting and always supporting the channel! Jason
I received my Earthway spreader this week. I put 8 pounds of clover into it and started spreading. The entire bottom popped off the red vinyl top so all of my clover seed ended up in a pile. It’s held on by a big zip tie but, there’s no way to tighten it. I’m returning it for a solo. Be careful with your earthway. You may dump a bag of seed like me.
Sorry to hear that happened to you. Very frustrating! I’ve had mine for years and never had a problem. I’ll have to take a close look at it. Thanks for watch g and offering the heads up! Jason
Quick list of necessary soil minerals tied up by common herbicides; zinc, manganese, cobalt, copper, boron, and potassium. If it's entirely necessary for your plot then do it but generally unnecessary at that scale. There's farmers on 10's of thousands of acres managing without and unfortunately deer love those fields.
I’m assuming you are referring to farmers doing no till. I try to use minimal tillage and herbicide as much as possible. These have not been tilled in years. My gasline hasn’t been sprayed in over 10 years. It’s time to do some spraying to set back some invasive and give the plots a good start.
Forgot to mention in the other video, but I been looking at Chapin sprayers, they look well built. Also, Chapin sprayers are built like 30 min's from my house.
I use a Chapin backpack sprayer and it has done well for me. Good quality unit!
Great video. I’m looking to get a sprayer for tractor 40-60 gallon boom sprayer. What would you recommend?
Thanks for watching and commenting. I just shot a video and will publish it in the next week about the one you see in this video. It is a Frontier LS2006. Below is a link to the entire LS20 line. The one I have is boomless and I really like it. www.deere.com/en/attachments-accessories-and-implements/utility-tractors-attachments-accessories/landscape-equipment/ls20-series/
@@HardyLifeOutdoors ok cool. Yeah I’m looking at a 65 gallon fimco right from there website , it has a 10’ boom, and is pto driven. I seen the boom less ones but am hesitant with wind drift. I also watched your fimco 40 gal video. I bought one a month or two ago and returned it the next day. It ran off the battery and the cables were about 5 ft too short, and it was not what I thought it was.
I know plenty of people have had good luck with Fimco, it just didn’t work well for me.

I bought this exact sprayer and my tank cranked, Tractor Supply gave me a replacement and I added some rubber under the tank. Knock on wood , so far it has lasted. IF it isn't used for Ag, why make it for 3 point hitch ? I also strap mine in the back of my Kioti side by side.
Fimco sent me at least two replacement tanks and I finally quit putting it on the tractor and it still split. I was so fed up with it, just done! Good to hear from you. Jason.
Looked at a lot of them and settled on the Good Works tractor model. Its better sized for subcompact tractors, be careful with one like yours that is deeper than the bucket, that can really torque your loader arms.
Thanks for the info. I’ve only used it a few times but good to know. Jason
Was going to say the same thing. GWT is a good design and safer for the loader.
Good to know there is another good option out there.
Thank You!! i feel that You made a excellent & thorough video!!! Please keep up with the good work. i will definitely share your video!
Thanks glad it was helpful. Those are many of the questions I was hearing over and over. Thanks for watching and commenting. Jason
True!
Oh yea!
April 2, 6:00 pm... As I look out my window northwest towards Columbus, I see it's getting a little darker up your way. The weather guy says we might be in for a rough night. May be a good idea to tie down the dog and the lawn furniture and head down the road to the Hocking Hills. At least the trees and hills will help protect you. Hope I don't need to hide out in my basement down here next to Chestnut Ridge Park. Stay safe!!
So far so good here. Hocking sheriff was reporting a tornado warning until about 9pm. Hope things doing get bad around your place. Jason
Those “towers” are Transmission line structures and appear to be carrying conductor in the 200,000-500,000volt range. Being near them, including driving below, is a very bad decision. Until one works for the utility, most have no idea the danger with regard to severity and proximity they present. Let this be a learning opportunity for all. They can hang or lay there while being energized and you wouldn’t know until it’s too late. While a libertarian, your commentary on EVs should heed more warning than just the far right. That mandate is not in anyone’s favor, including Mother Natures and especially not our own regarding free society.
Yea I knew they were high high power lines. There was a car that passed through before us without a problem so I proceeded. Definitely wouldn’t do it again. On the EV front, I don’t like the mandate but have tired of the far rights comments. The far right will drive by 10 broken down internal combustion cars to point at the 1 broken down EV. The modern automobile had major issues and resistance from the horse and buggy crowd when it came out. The first models weren’t perfect but have evolved into safe reliable transportation. The EV of today will be very different from the EV of 2035. Thanks for watching and commenting! Jason
