- With recovery ending, it is time to start getting things done. Trying out the John Deere KBA disc. Getting the mowers started. Removing the old garden area and staking out the new garden area. I nice few days of windy warm weather.
Adjustment for cutting depth on a disk is to change the angle of the four gangs. The more acute the angle at which the blades meet the ground increases how well they cut. Also, disks do not cut sod well. A plow would be used first and then the plowed field would be disked shortly before planting. Any tillage tool will work better when the cutting parts are shiny rather than rusty.
Yes sir Joe, work smarter and not harder, take care of yourself and thanks for sharing your awesome videos! 👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯🌱🌱🌱
Seeing this reminds me, I need to get my riding mowers going
You sure put the test to your recovery.Take care ,good luck with the new garden.🤩👍👍
Glad to see you healing very well brother!!! You were busting your ass big time on this video!!
Joe, I hope you're not overdoing it! Take good care. The pups seem to be loving the warmer weather. They sure have plenty of room to roam. The Salisbury steak with gravy looked scrumptious.
Love your videos and enjoy watching them. May the lord bless and protect you and Melissa
In Missouri where I live the wind blows hard just about every other day. It's very windy today! Hey Joe, I bet you're glad you can be out doing things like you use to!
Spring planting of a garden always places me in a positive frame of mind...it's a good place to be.
You got a lot accomplished. Nice job!
going to be a nice garden Joe. can't wait.
A+ Getting Ready for Spring (!!)
Thank you Joe! So glad you’re better! Everything looks great!
Looking good Joe.
Hello Joe good to see you doing better.
Sitting around is officially done!
oh yes, it is . Joe's firing on all six cylinders again for sure!
Amazing how those old machines still works so well. I know you keep them greased and working. Thank you for a great video Dennis.
Glad to see your able to work.
For what it's worth, I grew up next to a farm in the 1950's and I don't remember a disk being used on any field that wasn't newly plowed. The disk broke down the large clumps of dirt and smoothed the surface for planting.
Good to see you back to your old self again. I bet your are so happy to be out and about on the farm even if it is doing hard labor. lol
Plow it my friend 😊
Joey's nice to see you get around you're always working hard I can't wait to see how much stuff you grow in your new garden you're very busy man and you stay in shape when are you going up to the tent
Finally someone knows how to pull T post with the driver
Melissa actually sent me a video a few months back that showed someone doing it that way. It worked great.
Joe- I like to think you and I are of a similar age. Are you ever amazed at how casual we have become about buying television sets? I know my dad would not BUDGE to get anew set (It was a MUCH bigger deal back then), and I know we had several broken console TV sets, that we kept around "just in case" (whatever that meant, cuz they were never affordable to repair. Speaking of repair, it's good to see you on the mend! (but, try not to over do it!)
Now days it is cheaper to just go buy a new one. I think half the reason they kept those old console was because they were too damn heavy to move very far. Lol.
When those wheels are all the way up on the disc that's all it's got I think plowing the field first and then running the disc over it is your only option
I agree,plow👍
I am dealing on 3 different ones right now. Waiting to get the best deal and closest one to home. Stay tuned. Looking for a 3 bottom 14 with the hydraulic lift.
Really enjoyed watching 👍👍
Me too!..
Nice video the dogs are excited to be outside
lean to off one of those garages would nice for the mowers and riding toys
Thanks for sharing with us Joe and Melissa, like the new garden space for this year. My wife fixed us the same meal you fixed with the hamburger steak with mashed potatoes and onion mushroom gravy a few days ago and it went down so good. Looking great around there , stay safe and don't strain yourself too much. Fred.

Good Lad. That was a lot of work accomplished. Enjoyed the video very much. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Joe , hope you didn’t strain yourself. Take Care. 👍👍😊
Joe question with the early spring usually your sump pumps is working overtime how about this year
It just started going off about 3 days ago. Not very much though, maybe once every 8 minutes. It is raining like crazy outside right now so I expect that to be going off more often by tomorrow. Nothing like the years when we have a lot of snow though.
That's what I call pepperoni pizza!! yum!
I'm glad that you are feeling better, enough to do something with the garden and disc. I'm sure you still have some restrictions, but looking good so far. Stay safe and have a great day.👍🤓👍🤓.Randy.
Please don't over do it. I know you have been chomping at the bit to do stuff. Be careful.
I admit I cheered when the hydraulics worked. Weight will give more depth for sure. Sharpening and cleaning the blades is helpful too.
That dinner sure looked good. Hope you aren’t overdoing it pal.
Hello from West Fargo...man am I glad to see you up and about.
Can you give us an update on the guest house?
Also any final decision on the future of the mobile home?
Amazing how you start a project, but to do it right, first you must do one or more sub-projects to get the main project done! It is highly entertaining. example: getting the mowers out, but having to pull the winch cable out at a different location in order to pull the mower out. thanks for your methodical sequential problem solving, in order to complete the original project!! Hilarious!
Joe, the way you pull that tarp you must be feeling much better. I’m glad for you, your patience has really done well, considering it’s you 😂😂😂, just yanking your chain, my dear friend.
We plowed the garden spot in a field every fall. Then we disced it. In the spring we would pull the cultivator and harrows over it to get it really fine for planting. If it was too lumpy still we raked it by hand. We had that spot at least ten years. It fed our family of 7 all winter long. We always had at least 100 hills of potatoes. Usually had many 50 lb bags of carrots. Always had two or three rows of corn. Rows of peas too. Pulling a cultivator and harrow over that spot will be better for you because you can adjust the depth so you don't hit the sand. You can mark your cylinder for depth.
Try to find an old duckfoot plow. Your tractor will easily pull it. They are only 10-12" accross. Wont go super deep.
I am looking for a 3 bottom hydraulic lift plow right now. Farmall M is rated to pull a 3 bottom 14. I have 3 different ones I am interested in. Just waiting for the right price which all 3 are (300-500 dollar range) but I am waiting for the one that is closest to home. I will have to haul it home on the snowmobile trailer which is 10 feet long and the 3 bottoms are about 11 feet long if you remove the tongue. Not something I want to haul home all the way from Iowa. Lol.
On a virgin field like that you would usually plow the field before discing . When I was a kid I remember having to set the disc by reversing the tractor a few feet to "set" the disc. so it would dig in.
Salisbury Steak yum.
Careful there Joe....lifting !
I really enjoy your videos. They help get me through some tough times.
Joe I think you'll hafta break that land and then that disc will do a good job. I hafta break mine.
Your sure feeling better
Hello everyone from goderich ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Great video👍😁
Been getting things ready to my new permanent home in Western NC. We have been in the mid 80s all week. I just turned on the Air Conditioner about 3 days ago. It drops back unto the mid 60s on Sunday then back to the mid 70s the rest of next week. When I get to the mountains at least the humidity will not be as bad as it is in the central part of NC.
Great watching all the developments at the farmhouse. Don't overdo it, there is still time.
Chicken coop is bigger and better than my Grandparents home/cabin was!!!
Joe if you can make the angle of the disc increase it will cut and dig deeper give that a try but it takes a few passes to break up sod.
Its good to see you up and around Joe! Cant wait to see more tent vids!
Joe I think there’s away you adjust the angle of the disk to make them dig in deeper or to cut more aggressively.
OMG! Melissa's Salisbury Steak Gravy!
Recipe or video?
It was sooooooo good.
My wife Lisa really misses her cooking videos.
I pulled my fence tko. It was a pain getting it free of the grass. I have old bords I am going to use at the base of the fence. Hoping it will help with keeping grass from growing in.
Cool, I'm 64 and I never seen a pounder used to pull T rail that way.
getting it done Joe! Looks great!
Time for joes project list to start back up 1) finish guest house 2) get rid of old mobile home. 3) get Melissa’s pottery room done etc….. we had a company come in and remove our old mobile home from property up north and it was pretty reasonable actually! It was a demolition/junk haul away co
Love your new garden
We've been having a tease with the weather too. It's supposed to get cold again this weekend after a week of beautiful weather.
Joe glad to see you back at it after the surgery, I know it was hard sitting around.
A disc is a great ground compactor. At this point of years of discing I'd be ripping that ground to break the hardpan.
Seems like you are ok after surgery Joe..........
Still sore but restrictions are lifted as of today. I will just keep taking it easy as far as heavy lifting. I am not going to do the wood boiler at all for the rest of the burn season which is about 2 or 3 weeks until we shut it down.
You need to build a lean-to on each end of your garage to keep your lawnmowers and tractor under.
Glad to see the new garden type as I was worried about all that chemical fertilizer in those bales.
Just need to get yourself a three time plow 😊
look at the angle adjustment with the holes in the brackets between the discs front to rear but yes better used after plowing
Within an inch, good enough for goigle Earth. Must be the best Joe saying ever.
Woohoo!
I see lots of potatoes in the future. Can't wait
Glad you are almost recovered. Neat trick with the fence post driver. No need to wiggle the posts.
Bravo! 👍😎🇨🇦💫🌾
You need to adjust your gangs angle to make sure it cuts the soil well. Also you can go online and find a manual to your disk.
Get ya some feed bags full of sand and drop them over the bars on that disc. She will cut just fine
Haha I had to do the same thing with my new tv
U r working too hard already, you’re an exact copy of my dad. Don’t push it so hard Joe. Love ya man
My father would have said something like you can`t keep an ornrey cuss down!
Check out a cultivator you don't have a big enough tractor but that you can adjust the depth on go through the top or down 6 to 8 inches and then disk it to brake the clots up they are not used that much anymore a chisel is for deeper and you don't need that heavey a machinethey are not that expensive anymore
I had a similar issue with a Vizio Tv, same type of feet, I just reversed the sides on the feet and made them face in and it was enough to fit the TV stand. Still sturdy though.
Thursday & Friday it's suppose to snow here in Manitoba don't know if it's coming up from North Dakota or not
Time to find a brushhog for the tractor. That would have made short work of that scrub.
Glad you are doing well. Everyday stuff is a little slow for me, miss the tent and big Z. Where is the other half of your show? I know he has his own sceene.
Sweet corn. When I was about 20 years old, I was into gardening bigtime. The quality and taste of home raised veggies was a healthy choice. On day I got up to go back to the garden and I was shocked. I planted six rows of corn and every single ear was plucked off. I couldn't believe it. A neighbor came over and said he didn't hear anyone during the afternoon or night. It is one thing to worry about animals eating your garden but for someone to steal from it? I wish I had a fence put around it like yours.
Watch the heavy lifting still, I know you don't want to have to have them go back in! That's ole mother hen speaking right there. Lol
70 today tomorrow 30 and snow. OH MY
👍👍
great video as usul. Just curious if you did maple syrup this year I saw you get ready for it
I did and I did include that in one of the videos I did after the "getting ready" video.
you shd have left some of the brush as wind break for garden
Joe, you need to plow it first.
I can’t figure out the reasoning for discing up the field I thought that was for just grass, maybe aerating for hay? Or plans for a larger garden.
Be forewarned, we had a 50-inch ONN TV, and it only lasted about2 years. Serious pixelation issues developed.
Did you guys get a new dog?! It has been a while since I have been able to watch your vids. Hospital stays and strokes and such. Means that I have something to watch while I'm at home recovering.
Yes. Melissa found her when she was about 6 weeks old. Someone dumped her off in the ditch.
The found a puppy wondering on the road, took it home and looked for the owner but no one ever claimed him so they kept him.
@NorthernSeclusion that's awesome that he found you guys!! He's definitely in a loving home now!!
@@asalbert79 I believe it's a SHE? Annie
Joe's going farming ! Looks big but like you said some stuff takes up a lot of room & the garden gets small fast" I'm trying to go smaller more time for fishing then :))
Have you seen Dune Part 2? Great!
Joe, when does the double-wide go?
Didn’t realize you still had the 6.0 you gotta drive that in some of your future videos 🙂
You will see me driving it in the next farmhouse video. I used it today.
