Your father is very lucky to have a daughter like you. Hard working with a positive attitude.
Absolutely love, love, love the positive vibes that result from viewing this wonderful family channel
Just watched your wedding video and have to say that this 62 year old man had tears streaming with joy. You two were meant for each other. I am heading for year 43 of wedded bliss. You would love my baby yaks. They are so cuddly and soft. I am out here in Central Oregon and farm hay and yaks. You two are welcome anytime you find yourself in Central Oregon. I have a nice guest house and excellent yak on the bbq just waiting for a visit. You feel like the daughter I failed to be blessed with. Good luck to all of your family and continue to post your "antics". I find myself addicted to watching your videos. You are the only one I consistantly watch on you tube. Have a great life together.
If anyone else do this what you do there under the pivots, they complain… you had a amazing smile in your face and this was the nicest wet tshirt contest I ever see! You are a tougher farmer than you think!
Laura: Here's another one of those insanely simple life lessons......when pouring out of a wide mouth jug, like you were on the pivot, pour out of the "side" of the jug instead of the "end". You won't get that "glug, glug" and can control the flow much better without those surges from the air. Just pours in a nice steady stream.
NAILED IT⭐⭐🏆⭐⭐
Laura has just discovered how to control the weather by turning on the irrigation pivot to make it rain. I had learned how to control the weather long ago by washing my truck to make it rain. If I wax my truck it will make it sprinkle just enough to stick the dust/dirt to my truck to spot it up like a leopard.
Born entertainer, seemingly also a genuine person! Farm on Laura and Grant!
Laura, to stop (or at least vastly reduce) your drip oil from spilling when you pour it, turn the container over 180°, so that the pour spout is at the top, and the handle underneath. This works also for bottles of motor-oil or just about any container with an offset spout at the top. Pour with the spout at the top.
I would say 90 degrees. Pouring sideways works best.
or you know... a funnel
Sideways +1
I was today years old, when I learnt this.
Or have Grant do it.😊
Watching Laura Farms is a good cure for depression!
laying in bed day 3 after left hip replacement thinking the same thing! And remorse that I didn't follow my Roanoke Virginia grandfather farmer which i spent some time as a very young boy. God Bless those that feed the world!
Excellent! Clouds, sun, rain, more sun….and soaked to the bones from pivots.
Hey! I saw that slick move of yours…driving your 4-wheeler under the sprayer! Pretty tricky 😉. Thanks for teaching us how to be farmers. Sorry for your rough day with the uncooperative pivot, Grant. I’m sure Laura showing up with that cold drink was a very welcomed sight…not to mention, pretty to look at 😄❤️
Love you, Grammy
I like the wat Laura is learning about farming. Yes can put money In it by time of harvest it shows little. Grant only see him less. But by what she has said he is a good husband and handyman. Both of u good luck in future. ❤
I just want all farmers to know how Proud of all of you I am......The Northeast of America thanks ALL FARMERS across AMERICA........WE APPRECIATE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!!!!!! Thank you Laura....Grant.......Dad and PAPA C/Kurt!!!!!!!
Laura help a guy out...is it Kurt or Curt???
I'm finally gonna put a comment up. Your infectious enthusiasm, happy positive attitude makes me wish I had stayed on my dads farm aloooong time ago. Thank you and Grant(he's a lucky man)for putting on such a great vid all the time. Love from an ole x farmer from Downunda.
My wife has worked for the company (Nelson Irrigation, Walla Walla, Wa.) that manufactures those sprinklers for 42 years.
Hello from Germany!
I live in southern Germany, Baden-Württemberg. Irrigation systems can be found in the Lake Constance area and in the Rhine plain where a lot of fruit, vegetables and lettuce are planted. Otherwise the rain is enough in Germany, more than enough. Of course, we used to have no irrigation in agriculture because it was simply not necessary. In Lüneburgerheide, a farmer showed me such an irrigation system up close for the first time. Although agriculture is practiced there in northern Germany on a similar scale, the facility was a lot smaller. I will start planning a trip to the USA soon. This has been a dream of mine for a long time! I would like to see and experience the landscape in the USA for myself. But, it's not even a concrete plan yet. Yeah, I'm so crazy and I will pull this off too! I realize that I will only see part of the USA, to see everything I need a lot of money and time. And that is known to be scarce all over the world. I hope to be able to visit at least one farm. Due to the numerous videos on TH-cam, I have a rough idea of the dimensions, but in reality it's always a little different. But I just let myself be surprised. But it will take some time until then.
I just hope you and Grand don't catch a cold from getting showered from the watering every day. With the cool wind and the colder climate in Germany, something like that would be unthinkable. At least a permanent cold would be preprogrammed.
I wish you a successful harvest and continued success and lots of fun! I'll keep watching the videos, at least until I've seen it myself. Until then, stay healthy!
Stefan
I like how Laura's pivot is like an Ipad pro, push a few buttons, presto. Grant's pivot is like a model A ford, gotta hand crank it to get it going.
@@scottsoper Laura has motor driven ones too, just not those 3. I assume it's based on vicinity to utility power sources.
Laura's tractor also has more extra electronic goodies/monitors whizzbangs than everyone else's! She's started out as a high tech farmer.
@@scottsoper the electric ones are cheaper to run but often the fields are often too far away from the power company's lines so they have to use the engine powered pivots for those.
So enjoy watching your videos. You always smiling and giggling. Thanks for sharing I'll be waiting for the next one
Adorable little farmer you are! 🎉
You've got one of the best smiles on TH-cam. Right up there with Pocket Queen!
I don't subscribe very often... It has to be very interesting and real.... This Stuff is Great... Will be following and watching all the Videos...
When you pour the drip oil turn the 2 gallon plastic bottle 180 degrees from how you normally pour it. You will find it won’t chug out of the plastic jug. Normally you do this on full containers more so. Providing you have no funnel.
Hey laura, i been around mechanical stuff all my life, i have found and been told, when pouring from a barrel, turn the barrel 90 degrees, and pour it sideways, that way it doesnt spill, because you dont get the air lock which makes it go plop plop plop and splash everywhere, it pours gently 🙂
Grant is one lucky man, Woman like Laura are not in abundance. She is a rare breed (for lack of better comparison). Cherish her and Love her with all you have my man. She is a "keeper".
You've sure got that right on the money!!!!!
First, I love your smiles! Thank you! Second, when you went under the sprayer, I ducked! The voice thing, I struggle daily trying to talk and if I have a hard time understanding myself, I know other people will have a hard time understanding myself.
I love how Laura is super scared up mice, but thinks squirrels are adorable as heck. Squirrels are just big mice with fluffy tails if you think about it XD. Anyway, love the content Laura, keep it up!
We think of grey squirrels as rats with good PR.
The trick to pouring out if a large jug like the is to pour out of the side no chugging and lift it a little till your steam narrows. try it when putting wind shield washer fluid in your truck.😀
when pouring liquids from a covered bucket, a jug, or just about anything else, hold the vessel so the opening is UP, relative to the vessel (when you were pouring oil into the little tank on your pivot pump, turning the big jug so a broad side faced down would've meant ZERO spillage)... when air can get in, liquid flows out smoothly (no burps), makes things so much easier...
The world needs a million more Lauras.
Really like viewing your videos Laura and Grant, thanks for taking the time to make them.
That's what you do all day, makin' rainbows.
A little rainbow on the lens I'm retired Navy Photographer 71 to 75 I notice things like that. I like your reports.
You two are the best! Atta boy Grant holding the door for Mz. Laura!!!! Good video Laura!!
I made a mistake and left my pickup to close to the pivot for 7 hours once. It took 6 months for the dried spots to come off the windshield and hood. Not even steel wool would remove the hard water spots from 200 ft down. Now whenever I drive under a pivot I stop and clean the windshield before it dries no more looking though white spots for 6 months. Ha..ha
They irrigators are pretty neat. Thank you both for showing us how they work. Around here they are used on the sweet corn.
Laura you are one of a kind,, thank you to you and Grant with letting us know that a farmers job is not done after the seed is planted. I absolutely love you enthusiasm for life 😎
Great intros and outtros: Good Morning, Great Summer, Have Fun Farming, love all these. Please think about making something like that for an intro or an outtro. I will watch whatever you do. Love the Vlog!!
Yes, finally ! There's one we used to use in W. Texas - 8 cylinder engine running on propane. We had to break apart and move all the piping by hand. Piping was all aluminum, not too bad to move.
Squirrels make wonderful pets by the way...Ya'all make hard work look easy. You and Grant make such a wonderful pair. Keep the big smiles coming!!! Both of ya!!!
They can also be very destructive. They get trapped and taken far away at my house.
@@barrygrant2907 they keep wrecking my beautiful lawn! Digging holes everywhere!
@@barrygrant2907 Indeed. In the wild they certainly are. I had a red squirrel that I raised from a baby when I was a kid. Had him 6 years. Wonderful pet.
A tip here Laura there's a D cell electric pump that has a two foot long pump end with a two foot hose on it. The pump can pump any fluid with no mess for 20 bucks. I got mine from Harbor Freight any of your supplies outfits probably carry them.
Im changing my phone alarm to your "Good morning..", this husky version. I might start waking up without the mental deficit lol (not a morning person). The birds chirping take it to another level. You should sell it as an NFT (not even joking).
About filling drip oil from that type of canister - just put it sideways, like you want to lay the canister on one of it's larger flat sides - that way it's not going to spill as much. Thanks for the videos!
You Guys are a Blast To Watch!!
Good Days Work put in both of You!! 😀👍👊
As soon as Laura got back on the 4 wheeler in the shop, and was still filming, I said to myself, "she's going to drive under the sprayer." 😅 Such a great video!
Same here! I am 68 years old and grew up on a wheat farm. My intuition told me "we're going to go right under that rig".
When you pour your oil or windshield wash any container with handle like that hold it on it's side and pour . Y ou won't spill .
I just came here to tip her about holding the can sideways while pouring, but you beat me to it. :)
You are correct! Especially anti-freeze jugs and oil bottles that are oval/rectangular shaped. Hold the spout up the highest with the jug on it's side then roll/tip it over and up to pour and stop.
Or use a funnel.
Hi Laura, a little tip for you when you are putting fual or oil into A commitment or Machinery tune the container side on and steady then you should not spill to much.
Watched you bend the hose to pinch off the water to unplug the sprinkler. Try using your vice grips with a couple blocks of wood to pinch the hose then you will have two hands to work on the sprinkler.
You can put a nice google maps overlay of the quarter or half or whole section you are irrigating with that pivot on the main screen there instead of the default circle. It's in the book from reinke. Never fails we start watering here and the wind blows.
Great tip turb container 90° you'll find it easier to control.
Hi...get a set of rubber hose clamp to clamp off the hose so you can repair the pivot..the brand is ...gear wrench
The couple that plays together, stays together..........thru wet and dry times....lol
Tip - turn the canster on its side so the opening is at the top and then pour more control to pouring drip oil Great channel ex farmer son appreateing you vlogs
I was hoping you would go under the Sprayer while leaving garage.....and you Made my day!!!!! Cool Shot!
Right know you are at the post office and I am guessing Berry Blast for drink!!!!!
Pro tip for pouring from a can; make the nozzle the highest point before you start pouring. You want the oil level in the can to be as low as possible, so air can pass easily through.
Grant. I'm so glad to see the power transmission screen put on.
You guys are funny as hell. It’s nice to see you both enjoy what you do. Awesome. And Grant, as you know, you’re a lucky man. Could Laura possibly be any cuter?!?! lol Best of luck to you both. 👊🏼✌️
Weld 1.5" wide lips on to large pair of vice grip pliers use as hose crimp while cleaning pivot sprinkler.
Outlets on top or side of the trunkline wont hardly ever stop up in normal conditions. Never put metered restrictive water divery units on the bottom of trunkline where all rustflakes, mineral build up, / debris will travel down the pipe. clogged heads will be a common occurence otherwise
I used to love squirrels. But now I work for a fiberoptic provider in an area of California where trees have more rights than people And squirrels are the number one problem for the aerial cables. They chew through them and do enough damage to affect the customers service. So in about a month I went from loving squirrels to hating them. I don't even hate rats this much.
Oh man I was just going to say Grant I love the sound of the 454!!!!! And the Flappers on the exhaust!!!!!
Bummer it quit on you!
My Grams would be proud of you Grant...she would say...now that is how a Gentleman should look!!!
When you are filling the drip oil tank try turning the jug on the side as it will lower your chances of spilling. Hopefully that helps.
The mighty Ogallala Aquifer. Don't ever let it leave Nebraska.
Is that where they get the bay rum aftershave?
We farm in west Texas. Most of our wells pull anywhere from 50 to 100 gallons in my area. That kind of water off 1 well would be awesome
@ Scott Nebraska is fortunate enough to have the largest underground water deposit/aquifer in the USA, possibly On the whole continent.
At 650 gallons a minute that's 1,560,000 gallons over a 40 hour revolution. That's some serious water usage. And that's just one pivot!
@ AlaskaErik and Nebraska also knows a thing or two about pivots. Last I knew every center pivot in the world comes from Nebraska. Reinke , Valley, T&L, Zimmatic, and I’m guessing there might be more.
I sent you a tool to help service the nozzle heads. Pinching off the tube so no water flows.
its a plastic or metal pipe not a rubber hose.
a rubber hose would blow around in the wind and get ripped off
@@allenmason1098 the drops are reinforced rubber. Grant was folding them over to stop the flow on the nozzles that he was unclogging.
Glad you have a guard around the drive shaft. When I was a kid one of the farm hands had clothes caught in the PTO of a tractor and was killed. Be Safe.
es ist toll euch bei der arbeit zuzusehen ...
Laura, is a very hard working young lady keep up the hard work ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😀😀❤️😁😁😁😁😁😁
I'm not a farmer, but it seems to me that as much as you clean pivot heads that they would come with a shut-off valve at each head to make it easier to clean them without shutting off the water flow to the entire pivot. It would also make it a lot less messier.
Ya irrigation is a lot of work!! Have several myself . Flood irrigation even more work!!!
Squirrels....Yeah..Cute?.....Till They Inhabit Your Attic😭
They have these really cool little inventions called funnels! 😆
Laura squrriels are awesome I watch a squrriel on tube last year giving two bob cats a run for their money on a person house roof it was neat, and I miss the hit and miss engines not exactually known what they where used for but it seems like they were very fuel efficient, good video
They make these cool little quarter turn plastic valves for your drops so you can clean your nozzle and flush your regulators. But on a hot day your way feels nice
hi laura I'm from malaysian I like to watch your video all the videos you I see ❤
12:39 Truer words have never been spoken! 🤣
To clean them easier take a piece of fence hot wire and put it in there and it will push all the junk out. 😎
To avoid spilling from cans like that, try to tilt it sideways and pour while it leans sideways. That way you avoid the air gulps and splashes that comes.
Hope u can put some covers over the distributors...to keep the crustys at bay
Squirrels....MY NEMESIS. Rats with GOOD P.R.
You must be friends with my dog. She makes friends with bunnies but chases every squirrel that enters her fence.
Well Laura LOL coming from a fellow farmer from a good bit east of you most of us around here don't irrigate unless we are maybe orchardists or vegetable farmers that's livestock farmers and crop farmers in Western PA if we want the rain we generally go out and cut some hay LOL actually it's really not that bad some years it seems like it though I hope your crops keep doing well they look nice now I'll keep watching you this summer be careful you and Grant both
whoa, the fields look grt
Why isn't there a quarter turn shutoff valve on each of the pivot sprinkler heads to make decloging easier???
Laura's sunscreen. All natural and organic and comes in farm and outdoor sizes. It's also Guaranteed to last all day.
😭🇿🇦🇿🇦
I love seeing your videos, Laura! I grew up on a farm northwest of Manhattan, KS but we didn't have any irrigation at all. I really enjoy learning about how the pivots work and everything you need to do to keep them going! What kind of pumps are in the wells and how deep are they? Driving under the sprayer was great! I always wanted to do that when I was younger!
1:16 can confirm, I got my worst sunburn during a cloudy day.
Pro-tip: flip the drip oil jug over so the opening is at the top. Makes it easier to pour.
Now I gotta ask, is the drip oil just for the well pump??
yes, it lubricates the lower bearings down at the bottom of the shaft and along the way.
Cool cool. I never lubricated a pump like that one. Usually I encounter electric motors that get greased and have a shaft going to the pump.
I enjoy ur narration in vidieos retired small grain farmer from mt
Howdy my farmer friend
You are a sweet young lady. You have a great attitude with a fabulous smile. Love watching you on the farm
I’m not sure if the drop tubes on your pivot are flexible. If they are, have you considered using a hose pinch plier tool to stop the water while you clean the pivot nozzles? Really enjoy your channel. Keep smiling!!
@@scottsoper reason I suggested the pincher tool is I saw Grant fold a nozzle tube back to stop the flow while he cleaned a noodle. I thought maybe the pincher tool would be helpful. 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for the reply. 👍
Okay lets make that Tsunami Check!!!!!!
Ever thought about filtering the water as it comes out of the ground?
Great smile. Great video.
Hi Laura, this is Dirk, a farmer from Germany! I just found your blog on YT and watched a few videos. In this video I wonder why you grow corn after corn? Is this usual in the US? In Germany we are not allowed to do so! And another question: is the amount oft water you use for irrigation limited? Thanks for answering soon!
Hint, never set fuel container down next to motors electric or fuel. You could regret the end result. Things go boom with just a spark.
Gorgeous woman. Grant seems like a perfect match he seems decent and always cheerful. There will be tough times keep working thru any tough times it will be worth it in long run. Dont end up like me. Alone 50, no kids, having wasted years with the wrong people.
Laura you so much fun to watch. God Bless you.
Tell grant hos 250r 3 wheeler is awsom. I had 1 long ago n my buddy. N 350x,n 200x n many others. Great see interest. From others. Maybe u can bring out d 250 act. Lil bit mor. N d cultivator. 1st cutting done here n limbo now. Except mow yard.
Put the oil on it's side and it's easier to get in without it going all over the show!
yes, you know whats up
3:55 you have to learn how to pour sideways :) its easier to control and the air flow into the can is less of a problem.
