As an owner of my own personal 1951 farmall M (with a loader), this channel is exactly what I look forward to everyday! I like that you aren’t afraid to call out the BS when you see it; but, don’t forget that they ARE the minority and I’m willing to bet most of us are just happy to hang out with another red power enthusiast…….BOOM!
He doesn't make hay yet 😊 We used to broadcast seed a little bit, sometimes it's great and sometimes it's a little spotty but it'll fill in. Great video Farmall, I just saw an auction video from earlier so I'm gonna watch that next.
Would be cool to see you do a little haying buy a nice ole IH Haybine a decent little tender and rake and a nice IH baler make and sell some clover bales for some extra money
I always seed yellow clover with fertilizer spreader and then go over with harrows and call it good I once didn't even get to harrow it and I got a rain on it was good clover the first I did that people laughed at me but they weren't after they seen the clover up beautiful clover I even seed canola like that had some of my best crops ever
I love planting wheat lightly and in the early spring spread my clover and it usually turns out nicely. But you got to clip that clover thru the summer.
Can't wait to see the process for planting sugar beets. I used to truck a lot out through and to western Ohio and still remember the smell of them being processed during fall harvesting season around Fremont. Great informative video on that clover you just planted.
Your seeding mirrors how I seeded new golf courses over a 25 year period. We used a Lely spreader for both fertilizer and seed. Sometimes we followed up with pulvi mulcher or upside down scotch chain harrow to help seed to soil contact. Excellent prep on your part too ! Thanks Gino's for bringing back memories of some of the best years in my life! 👍
Glad to see you getting things done with the implements you have and not spending $5000 on something you would use once in a blue moon like our fellow TH-camr friend here in Southern Illinois does ! Make due with what you have and stay frugal ! Love your channel and thanks for the entertainment !
Never planted that much clover but I essentially do the same thing just with a hand seeder and zig zag pattern. Let the rain do the work for covering seeds. The soil and the deer sure love the clover breaks tho
Them 3 point cone spreaders work good. Mix it with sand and it's not all bad . Use to frost seed that way. Or the old crank spreader and ride on the tailgate. Hope you get a good rain on it. Stay cool !!!
I like how things and i learn from you on how to do things like planting and working on red power. That's why i watch your videos to learn how to do it 👍👍👍
I seeded grass seed like that alpha so on works great one year I had no drill and I had breaking land 40 acres I seeded with fertilizer spreader with oats and 100 bushel oat crop
I really want to see your experiments. I am a small scale farmer and little ressources around me that talk about cover crops so i am exited to see what you are doing and maybe i may be able to implement some of your ideas in my rotations.
Gino, guy here from butler. Prior to us getting our 5100 international drill with the press Wheels on the back from no joke boak, we would take our John Deere call the , we would take our John Deere roller hero placing the deer in the rear of one of our red tractors race his teeth and roll the hey seed in with the packer Wheels
77% seems like something you would get with plant seed out of the farm bin. We would do wheat in the fall for the one acre garden we had. The wheat would die out in the spring when we plowed. I was figuring you were going to start doing hay.
Uncle would rotate hay fields about 4 to 5 years. Plant wheat or oats in the fall and come spring walk the field with a canvass bag over your shoulder broadcast spreader you hand cranked. Our fields were hilly so you needed a cover crop to keep the seed from washing away. Straw was a money maker to sell to the locals that owned 5 acres and had a horse for their Daughters to play with till they could date. Be interesting what type of vintage hay equipment you would get.
McCormick adding his $0.02..... 😝 Love the equipment choice...!!! If you are interested in a turkey food plot, I understand they like the tubers in chufa.... 🤔 What's better for turning up sugar beets.. moldboard or disc plow..??
Flinging the seed with FF. Hey brother, send that rain on down here. The 4 wheeler beats hoofing it back and forward across the field with a bucket and your hand.
@FarmallFanatic we had some dry years one had no rain till October and it still grew they are hardy plants we use to seed clover in the dry years just si we would have feed for cattle that's the only that grew
Kudos on choosing ladino clover as perineal choice. They recommend 1-5 lbs per acre. Yeah right😂 I plant all my clovers 10lbs at half rates in two different directions. So 50 lbs should plant 5-7 acres. But from the seed you showed on the ground, looks like you have it perfectly applied. 👍🏽 The good thing about the perennial clovers, they will spread. I’m just not patient enough. I like a thick stand right out of the gate. I also see you buy coated seed. If you are interested and can get it, next time buy raw seed inoculated, but not coated . You get a significant amount more of actual seed, per bag. Just a recommendation, but it appears you know what you’re doing and doing what works for you. Good luck👍🏽 and🤞🏽.
Found out that white perineal clover spreads more by runners than seed. So if you get a decent germ, you should have a lots of clover after a season or two!!
That seems like a very low germination rate, we sell Ladino, Dutch white and medium Red clover at the mill, put out by King's Agu Seed that are much higher, like in the 90s percent range, My Gramp use to broadcast clover seed and then run a roller over it so it would make good ground contact
Dang right!! Super dry here in NC! I'm watering about 6 hours a day in some places!
We are getting rain right now 👍
Excellent video Geno :) also one neighborhood neighbor on 90 acres farm uses ATV 4×4 with seeder you have there and also so cool see how get done too!

Very well put... They are the minority
I thought that was a great way to plant the clover! Thank you for sharing my friend!
Thanks Mark 👊
Very cool watching the whole process from plowing to planting!! Reminded me of grandpa doing itwhen i was a kid!! Keep up the awesome videos!!
Thanks 👊
He doesn't make hay yet 😊

👌
This was the best most economical and fastest way to break my heart! I thought we were gonna be seeing the Crimson …… king of all clovers……. Oh well 😎
Can't hunt over crimson 🤣
@@FarmallFanatic I do!!😂
Would be cool to see you do a little haying buy a nice ole IH Haybine a decent little tender and rake and a nice IH baler make and sell some clover bales for some extra money
That would be something different
I always seed yellow clover with fertilizer spreader and then go over with harrows and call it good I once didn't even get to harrow it and I got a rain on it was good clover the first I did that people laughed at me but they weren't after they seen the clover up beautiful clover I even seed canola like that had some of my best crops ever
It definitely works
I love planting wheat lightly and in the early spring spread my clover and it usually turns out nicely. But you got to clip that clover thru the summer.
Yea I'll mow it once before winter or the weeds will own it

Thanks Gino's for bringing back memories of some of the best years in my life! 👍
I like the upside down scotch chain idea
Hope you get a better stand than 70%! I guess if you get rain you will find out quick!
77% ain't too good 😕
Glad you are getting some rain..... it's DRY here in Lancaster
Glad to see you getting things done with the implements you have and not spending $5000 on something you would use once in a blue moon like our fellow TH-camr friend here in Southern Illinois does ! Make due with what you have and stay frugal ! Love your channel and thanks for the entertainment !
Thanks 👊
Will be interesting to see how it all grows. Thanks for the video. All the best 🇬🇧.
I will definitely insert a crop update in an upcoming video
Looking forward to the cloverleaf coverage. Always great to see a different crop being planted. Our rainfall in Southeast usually cutoff date is July.
Always amazed at the stuff i find in my fields.
When we dry out I have a few hours to spend out there
Never planted that much clover but I essentially do the same thing just with a hand seeder and zig zag pattern. Let the rain do the work for covering seeds. The soil and the deer sure love the clover breaks tho
Perfect timing we just got rain

We are getting rain now... I expect a good stand within two weeks
Thanks for the video . That’s a handy seeder there. Fine way to do your seeding. Thanks for the ride along and good luck with your project
Thanks
I like how things and i learn from you on how to do things like planting and working on red power. That's why i watch your videos to learn how to do it 👍👍👍
The bees love it too.

Good to know on the alfalfa
I enjoyed this, something a little different than you see on most ag channels. Loved your Alice in Chains impression too BTW 😂
The Wooster natives are made at me for it 🤣
Nice FF, except in this video it was orange power gettin her done with the Honda😁👌🏻💥
Pumpkin heads love orange 😄
I really want to see your experiments. I am a small scale farmer and little ressources around me that talk about cover crops so i am exited to see what you are doing and maybe i may be able to implement some of your ideas in my rotations.
I mean, I could have hand spread this too
Fine Job.
Thanks 👊

Yeah, I need a grass seeder on my grain drill with press wheels
I agree. Run the packer after seeding and keep the teeth up. Increase the soil to seed contact. Keep the soil and seed in place when the rains come.

It's something i'm interested in doing

I'm definitely interested in the sugar beets ....👍👍
McCormick adding his $0.02..... 😝
Love the equipment choice...!!!
If you are interested in a turkey food plot, I understand they like the tubers in chufa....
🤔 What's better for turning up sugar beets.. moldboard or disc plow..??
I've never used a disc plow
Should've tried that 3 wheel e-bike out and see if it would pull that seeder
I think it would on this flat ground
Thanks for the cost info.
Needless to say three years ago clover was half the price
Flinging the seed with FF. Hey brother, send that rain on down here. The 4 wheeler beats hoofing it back and forward across the field with a bucket and your hand.
Up and back would be a quarter of a mile
Do you ever run a metal detector over those fields?
Never have
❤💪🏼❤Red Power in motion.
Hi McCormick 🐓
So do you harvest those sugar beats? Nice video.
Sometimes
Same rainy season here in wisconsin also, usually headed to dry time on June 21, but not looking so this year.
we are supposed to get rain tomorrow
Your crop will turn out great that clover grows dry or wet and in any soil I found
Do need some water to get the seeds kickin at first
@FarmallFanatic we had some dry years one had no rain till October and it still grew they are hardy plants we use to seed clover in the dry years just si we would have feed for cattle that's the only that grew
We just got about a half an inch of rain yesterday.
Same here

I did about 7lbs per acre
@@FarmallFanatic oh yeah. 👍🏽
Found out that white perineal clover spreads more by runners than seed. So if you get a decent germ, you should have a lots of clover after a season or two!!
Yeah i'm pretty stoked
the amount of those spreeders ive assembled good 500 +
Yeah then when you need parts they are not available
So when you put the clover down (dumb question) it doesn't need to be covered?
I generally don't because the seed needs to be shallow
@@FarmallFanatic ok thanks
Not taking a tag off seems to be a reoccurring theme
I'm getting good at it
That seems like a very low germination rate, we sell Ladino, Dutch white and medium Red clover at the mill, put out by King's Agu Seed that are much higher, like in the 90s percent range, My Gramp use to broadcast clover seed and then run a roller over it so it would make good ground contact
Where is your mill?
@@FarmallFanatic Ward and Van Scoy inc Owego N.Y
I am curious. Will that 50 lbs bag of clover seed on 7 acres sprout and be as thick as hair on a dog's back??
Probably not as thick as that, but a good stand
Central Farm and Garden where your seed came from is literally 2 minutes from the RES yard.
Awesome 👌
If everything goes right I'll be out there this week
#303👍 🚨
Cub on the spreader?
The wheeler has a digital speedometer
Crop update?
What no Farmall tractor lol :)
Hon da da da da instead
What rate per acre are you planting
About 7lbs
102% humidity?
Sense of humor?
@@FarmallFanatic Aha! I tought so , but it is not always clear to recognize the different types of humor in someones voice in a different language.
When the clover starts to bloom need get some honey for some clover honey
The bees are really busy in that other field
@@FarmallFanaticSee if you have a bee keeper in the area and bring in some hives.
