@@squatch253 Thank you for your well thought out and well researched answer to my Question. You never disappoint with your thoughts and procedures in your videos. I learn a lot about things I didn't Iknow I cared about. I especially enjoy your thoroughness when you undertake a project. I also really enjoy your dry humor. Peter
@@bcbloc02 I have always heard that discs and plows are two different devices that have very little in common. My dad had a commercial rototiller and stayed very busy for about 40 years until he retired! I have always loved rototilling and crop rotation and cover crops in the offseason! Rototilling vegetation back into the ground replaces nutrients, nitrogen, etc. After rototilling the vegetation back into the ground, the ground seems to be more prolific and grows faster and bigger crops. Also proper rototilling leaves the ground very well aerated and very smooth, a real thing of beauty!!!
@@TF856 A disk plow is a different tillage tool from a disk. I found a decent video on one where a guy talks about it.th-cam.com/video/bVkIvM6NuuI/w-d-xo.html
I grew up in central Ohio. Every spring a Johnny popper would plow at least a 100 Acre field every spring. Hearing that tractor work all day marked spring is here. Nothing sounded like a Johnny popper at work. This brought back so many good memories sitting on the porch and listening to that tractor.
It's funny what sounds you remember from the past. Growing up, a farmer almost 3/4 of a mile away had a fire wood saw powered by a one lunger hit or miss engine. Even that far away, I could hear that engine hit every time they ran a log through the saw. Then it would be quite, one or two pops and then quite until they ran another log through the saw at which point it would fire every time. Now when I go to the country fairs, I always stop at the old engines just to watch and hear them run. They go so slow you just know they're going to stop, but just at that point they'll pop 2 - 3 times and off they go.
Spring plow day is already here...wow! Good to see all the snow is finally gone. This can only mean that tractor show season is coming up fast. I am hoping to make the drive up to Rollag this year. I hope that my work is cooperative and gives me the time off. Thanks for sharing all the plow day fun with us.
Thanks to Rick for providing the ground to turn a tractor to run (since mine doesn’t) and Toby for documenting and bringing a Sweet Plow for Connor to pull. By far the nicest furrows all day were cut by that IH 3 bottom, what a sweet plow!
If you'd told me when I was a kid plowing into the night every spring, sleeping fast (!) so we could get chores done before I had to change for school, that I'd enjoy a movie about plowing, I'd have said you were nuts. But, I really do enjoy the plow day videos. I plowed with an M pulling 2 sixteens, a Farmall 400 (with TA) pulling 3 sixteens and a John Deere sixty pulling two fourteens and a clod buster. I liked plowing and discing better than field cultivating. Tractor ride was a lot easier on the body. I haven't plowed anything since 1967. I did not look forward to cultivating, at all. After the first few hundred thousand corn plants I pretty much knew what the next one was going to look like!
Oh my how this brings back memories from nearly 60 years back. when I was little, Dad let me plow with a Allis Chalmers C, Then when I was about 11 or so, Dad let me operate the old Johnny Pop model 60. This is what I really miss from the farm. Thanks Toby for the awesome vids that spark our memories..
Didn’t get much time plowing as a kid, dad did that during the week. Then when I’d come on the weekends all that’s left was to disc. Now I got my own lil field and starting to get lil time with a plow behind a model A John Deere 1st plow I used was a rope trip 2 bottom JD then next was a 3 bottom hydraulic lift. Found out the model A pulled the 3 bottom better in 3rd gear over 2nd. The more I turn dirt the more I learn an get better at it and kinda fun doing it too
WOW! This takes me back to me plowing behind my grandfather's mule (named Nail) and a single-turn plow. It was not till he hit 70 that he bought a 1949 IH Farmall C Tricycle and we really got business taken care of. As a sidebar, I took exception to Hee Haw, knowing it was Gee Haw.
Great to see the old machinery out doing their very best, brings back memories of the day of dad and i plowing, me on the IH BTD6 with a 4 bottom and dad on the TD 20 with 8 bottom.
I grew up in Northern Maine. Plowed and ran a harrow since I was 12. This video made me absolutely homesick. I could almost smell manure. Love it. Thank you.
Ha...what wonderful memories. We can SMELL the earth being turned, ha. ...Remember being half awake from making round after round...and BAM we'd hit a rock - uncouple and shot forward, ha... took a bit to settle down, ha. Thanks much for taking us along Toby!
I have never plowed. I looks to be soothing. My aunt always did the plowing on her farm. She made straight rows. She has not plowed for a couple of years. She has to be 83 or 84. She is quite the woman. I love her.
There's the joke about the city slicker who thought he knew everything about engines. When the farmer started the old John Deere and took it out of the shed, the kid listened to it for a few seconds, then told the farmer "I think there's something wrong with your tractor, it's only running on two cylinders." The farmer looks over and replies "I sure hope so son, I sure hope so."
Awesome plough day, that John Deere sounds ace. Loving the d4 ploughing as well, I’ve just recently bought a cat r2 6j Can’t wait to get her hooked to a plough later this year, I’ll post a video of her online and I would be grateful if your could cast your expert eye over her. Keep up the great work👍
Good day from Ontario. Ploughing deeper gives more topsoil, also water drains quicker & on dry roots can go down deeper. also ploughing u watch dandelions will come up there quicker because that is not plough, ground thrown over. It is OK though. Your 3 furrow is that narrow points Boy those stones on dad's farm were a bugger. We had a stone pile about 6 ft. high. U know there is alot of minerals & topsoil on them piles Thanks good nice ploughing
This is the time of the year I always looked forward to for us in mid April between spring rains ,After field prep came planting good old memories Thank you
this was a most satisfying plow day or should i say plough here in uk!loved the way those old ploughs and tractors worked hard and enjoyed the work out! thank you squatch!
GREAT camera work! There is just something about watching the turning of sod but moldboard plowing is becoming less and less common in the southern part of MN. Some of the combinations did a much better job than others and it appears speed may have been part of the recipe. Maybe you and Senior could put on a "Plow Clinic".
That old pull type harrow reminds me of one I bought from an old man who was our neighbor when I was 13 years old (I am 64 now) for five dollars. My Dad had a little 240 IH with the two point hitch that was his garden tractor. Boy did I think I was big timing it when I hooked that 240 to it and plowed the garden spot. Could only go in a race track fashion but I got it done. Then came the two row Covington planting rig. God that seems like a lifetime ago...
We would pull a rotary hoe section off the right side of a plow to even out the freshly turned soil. This would avoid another tillage trip through some fields such as prior year soybean or prior year corn fields. This also helped save some soil moisture which was necessary in our area (Chippewa County, MN, 1950s & 1960s). I would have liked to have been part of your plow day with the Super M-TA gas tractor and 3-16 plow combination of my day.
You guy are doing a nice job!! There isn't anything like the sight of rolling sod, the souund of the ripping sod and even the smell of the rich mid west black dirt. Havin' fun there fella's!
Thanks for the video Toby! Man I wish I coulda been there. My tractor club always has our tractor show Memorial Day weekend. Looks like a lot of fun! Woulda been an expensive weekend to bring the 460 utility and 311 plow up. Woulda been great to meet all of you guys. Can’t wait for the next video
There's something about seeing these older rigs doing their work that looks so much more...relaxing I guess at least from the observer's perspective...that doesn't seem to exist with watching newer equipment churn up vast swathes @ a time.
Thanks for the video Squatch!! What a great deal of fun! I sure hope with some rain it will take out some lumpiness as well as the killing of the dust!
This reminds me of a story. When IH came out with the 1206 model my older brother was working for an IH dealership. He and the dealership owner had gone out with a 1206 and plow to demo for a farmer. On the way back, they passed another farmer who had several different new tractor brands plowing and showing off their tractors and plows. They stopped and asked the farmer if he would like to see the 1206 since they were right there. The farmer said he would like to see it operate. They unloaded the 1206 and pulled in in front the John Deere tractor that was part of the demo. The dealer had turned up the pump on the 1206 and installed some M&W parts in the pump to increase the horsepower (he was shooting for 200 hp, got close but never made 200). So after a couple of rounds, the dealer told my brother "Watch this". He started moving the draft control lever down until the plow was plowing about 18" deep instead of the 10" that everyone was plowing. The 1206 lost about 100 rpm and just kept going. The John Deere hit the deeper furrow and almost stalled. They had to stop and shift down in order to keep going. Thanks for the video. Interesting to see the older tractors and plows. The "A" sure did a nice job. It would have been interesting to have each tractor and plow have their own set of furrows so that it would be easy to compare the results. Even a few rounds with them being the only 1 plowing at a time.
I've seen too many plow day videos where they just make a mess. You guys know what you're doing. Wish my sod turned over that nice. Tends to come out in bricks ready to build a sod hut no matter the moisture.
After watching your video I feel like getting dad's old MF plow out of farm's junk pile and hook it up and play with it. I'd bet it hasn't turned soil in 50 year!
Love the old time ploughing videos 💪💪 thats my passion come Autumn take part in a few vintage ploughing competitions 🤔👍 the M just sounded awesome with that 3 bottom plough 💪 to be fair every tractor did really well including the race day Cubby 😁😁
I ran some long hours in a CAT this weekend and I had to do a double take when I saw that thumbnail pic, I knew I'd put in some long hours and I wasn't thinking quite a clearly but that sir was quite a shock!! 😲😲🤣
Great time turning the good earth for planting. If I have it close it looked like the average age of the machines being used was something around the 1953 time frame. Funny to see the old iron still does a fairly good days job.
What are some of your tips and tricks on loading little genius plows or any traditional trip action plow with the tail wheel? I'm new to plows and just bought a ih no.8c three bottom for my M. It's hard if not impossible to back up with because the tail wheels wants to go into the plow when it swings around. I love watching all your videos no matter what the subject is and admire your attention to detail! 👍🏼
I think i have at one time or the other, over the years driven every one of those tractors but my favorite is the green popping johnny. A sound i never tired of.
Are you marking the rocks so that they can be dug out later? I have found that using a stiff rod ,about 3/8 in diameter works very well. You only have to rehook and not worry about trip rope.
Since we don’t see much green on here and I living a half hour from the moline IL mothership. I would love to hear your opinions on the two cylinder era, the goods and the bads of the design. Obviously the two cylinders would’ve never been able to keep up with the power output of the more traditional machines that came along in the sixties, but nevertheless they are neat, and judging by a lot of the local “yard art” quite popular as well
I think this was one of most fun plow day's ever with you narrating all the time, just hoped to see you on the D2 plowing as well, but nevertheless this was fun
Is that a official thing or just a bunch of guys plowing another guy's field with their antique tractors? Either way, all went well and everyone seemed to had fun... Thx for showing! 👍👍👍
So many questions! I'm down in Louisiana and typically we don't plow. I guess softer ground and no rocks . We disc and then use ridges to build rows. Have yall ever just disced and not plowed? After discing, do you run row builders? What crop are yall planting? It's absolutely beautiful ground you guys are turning. Love to see the old iron still working hard.
Allis would work better with a punted plow designed for it. My Grandpa got rid of a new WD-45 after one. He called it Teddy Roosevelt (Rough Rider). He was using IH plow that he had on previous Super M. He traded the AC for another Super M.
@Squatch253 mine is a 3bottom, hyd lift,rubber tires, and it has a iron beam on the right side that looks like a train track beam. I'm looking for the breakaway on the hitch and a right hand hitch support.
What's your feeling on the pushback against plowing? The internet is rife with pro and cons about this process.

How about three or four working the same field and the exhaust cadence gets together?
A neighbor south of us liked to plow at night with a John Deere 60 or 70. I could have my window open a lay in bed and listen to that Johnny popper.

Great plow day Squatch. D4 looked really cool with the cab. Can't wait to see the cab on 1113.
Sweet furrows from the single bottom! I loved the super A.
Great video. Nice looking ground there. Love plowing. But I don’t get to do much. We have one plow match per year.
Good grief, that 3 bottom little genius is doing an excellent job 👏
Gotta love how easy a John Deere two cylinder plows. Torque for days.
I've seen too many plow day videos where they just make a mess. You guys know what you're doing. Wish my sod turned over that nice. Tends to come out in bricks ready to build a sod hut no matter the moisture.
Nothing is more miserable than discing fresh rolled over sod, nice job boys!❤️❤️👍👍

Looked like a really good time!
Nice unstyled deere
Have to stay on the steering when plowing as fast as that one-bottom. I was taught that any faster than 5mph, add another bottom and slow down under 5

@Squatch253 mine is a 3bottom, hyd lift,rubber tires, and it has a iron beam on the right side that looks like a train track beam. I'm looking for the breakaway on the hitch and a right hand hitch support.
