That carpenter 🐝 is probably Tim's dad checking in to make sure that he's planting that corn right.
I agree with many others here - I’d love to see a couple more visits out there to see the progress. Great content Tim!
I agree 👍
100% agree. I just want to see the progress and watch how well they keep up with cultivation.
Same here! Great video in any case.
jack
Would be great to see
Hope you go back in the fall to pick corn with the two row picker. That will be fun!
I see you use the best in digital technology to determine planting depth.
Your dad would never be disappointed in you. Thanks for sharing. Look forward to seeing the stand.
I'm new to farming videos and this is the perfect series to teach us newbies the way and to highlight tractors and farming equipment. I sure would like to see more videos on the progress of this cornfield, the maintenance, the harvest, and the yield... (As well as the tractors and farm implements and such). :) Nice video series!
Hey Doug! We have lots of videos showing not only our sweet corn planting and growing approach, but also some larger ag videos from the family farm.
Please note that I don’t agree with the open pollinated corn approach.
To get an accurate count of plants per acre, wait for the seeds to germinate, measure 14' 7', and count all the plants in the row between the marks. On 36" rows 14' 7" is 1/1000 of an acre, and multiply by 1000 to get plants per acre.
One nice thing with 18,000 population we end up having a dry year that may help the corn not dry up as fast it might grow better that way or should I say stress out
*** I wheelie liked the video! 🤣😂
Thanks for the real world video content and not editing out mishaps.
Hey Tim, I know in another video you said you lay down some 46 before tilling and planting. How often to you side dress the corn during growing and what do you use? Thank you.
Great thumbnail. My wife would say, “That’s the last time you’ll be doing that!” :)
indians plant the 3 sisters, beans and pumpkin and corn, the pumpkin shades the ground, the corn makes a pole for the beans to climb, and the beans give nitrogen to the corn.
You can get more corn in a crooked row! 😂
Another great corn planting video! Loved the thumbnail! 😁👍
*Keep on tractoring!*
That planter looks good all hooked up to Johnny
For weed control, I would love to see a propane burner mounted on the tractor. I use a handheld one in my small garden. It works great. I would think it would complement the land owner's all natural approach too. Great video!
Interesting! I have never heard of this for weed control. How do you keep from burning the plants while burning the weeds?
Fascinating to see corn planted by someone who knows how. P.S. did you ever download the new software from GE/Café to add air frying capability to your range
Your farming is coming back very well Tim. You adjusted the feed almost perfectly!
Good video. I enjoyed it.
Good stuff. I had to replant my corn. That wet, cold spell we got a few weeks ago killed my seeds. I replanted about a week ago and haven't had any rain since. Always an interesting year in hobby farming.
Same with me.
That planter is heavy! I wouldn’t have thought it was that heavy!
Should you run talc in the seed too to help keep things lubricated? I know farmers use it in their planters.
Actually that is a finger unit, they use graphite to lubricate.
I really don’t think GPS could have made the rows any straighter! Good job Tim.
Neat! I'm always interested in the small scale farming stuff. Will look forward to hearing how this turns out!
Fantastic equipment for the home-size farmer. Great job and even rows.
I see you Tim popping a wheelie in the thumbnail 😂😂 next you’ll be popping wheelies on Johnny 5 lol keep up the hard work Tim
Keep us posted on the progress of the corn and how they harvest it. It will be interesting to see how well it turns out.
This is what I and many other homesteaders enjoy, it’s all about being self sustaining
Iinno
Very interesting thanks Tim regards from N Ireland .
Great job on keeping the rows straight Tim. I like that planter!
I just want to know why no one uses the title "heirloom seeds" anymore. even on packets of seeds.. that has been removed as well as GMO and we have not idea what strain they are. ( this is in NC )
i loved the virtual expereince of planting on a small plot
I learn something from a seed corn farmer, that if you water when it is pollinating you can save almost as much money in drying the corn as the cost of irrigation. The thing about seed corn farming is that you can not leave the corn out if your going to have a hard frost (more than 2 hours below freezing). So the have a lot more drying time to get the moisture content down.
On non-seed corn if you let it freeze the moisture will lower faster after a hard freeze.
You should have put a skip row every few rows so they can drive in the rows. It helps them when they pick the corn. And sweet corn likes spacing, it doesn’t want to be planted tight together like field corn
Once again, I would like to give a shout out to Christy for her video work! Those drone shots, even close to the ground, just make it so much more enjoyable to watch. And her skills at knowing how to frame the shots and zoom in and out are the best. GREAT work, Christy!
So with the 1 row planter is that providing the optimal spacing between corn rows?
Most modern farmers use 30”. Some have moved to 20”.
36”-40” was the standard in the 1960’s...when more cultivation required.
We were aiming for 36” rows.
Good job, before GPS the big thing was to cruise the roads to look at the neighbor’s corn rows to see who had the straightest rows. On the other hand my Grandpa always said you can get more corn in a crooked row. Great memories!
Orville pop corn I think have changed their variety. Pops good but the flavor not so much. It’s almost a waste of money buying a box or it’s their butter 🧈 is the wrong choice. They need to go back to their original butter flavoring. Plus some variety can cause upset stomachs. Back when Mr. Orville did commercials what was that corn 🌽
...I see a GARDEN FULL OF SWEET CORN real REALL REALLLLY SWEET SWEET CORN yummmmm!!! :)
I grow everything heirloom/open pollinated. Don't have a huge issue with hybrids except that companies can literally patent food which to me is a little scary to give them power that god/nature gave us for free.
Also as the video said, you can save seeds year over year and after many years of doing this, you are selecting for the plants that grow the BEST for your soil/climate or specific needs. That is how heirloom varieties were created. Families kept seed lines going for their own purposes and over a many decades they perfected certain kinds of plants. Its awesome! Hybrids are fine for some things but not for the things I think are most important.
Tim, I agree with you on the GMO seeds that I think that its two steps backwards as well. I too won't get into the debate here.
This has been a really interesting couple videos on this topic. Looking forward to seeing how the harvest turns out!
Hey Cash! Great to hear from you!
Another awesome video Tim!
ok, going tomorrow to my local john deere dealer to see what they can help me with. hopefully they great buying programs.
Hello tim I finally got my 1025r i am in aust it would be great if you could talk deere with us in aust God bless regards shayno
Behold the faith of a farmer. "Is this all works out we say thank you Lord
My dad was always disappointed when I didn’t get that gene for his love of gardening. His knowledge of raising a garden is probably why I’m alive today. My grand dad raised corn to feed cattle when I was just a young boy. It’s good to know these methods are still be cultivated…….
How much does that planter weigh? Those front weights are your best friend for sure
Tim, I think you dad would have thought you could have cut straighter rows, but I don't think he would have ever been disappointed in you.
There was a man that lived near me years ago he had a theory on rows. He always said you can get more seed in a crooked row than you can in a straight row. But there's always something that will interfere with the planter and bump it over slightly so you can have a bump out.
How do you call bees? Just give them a buzz. ( old phone joke )
I look forward to seeing the follow up video on how this project turns out.
Dad always said, you can plant more corn in a crooked row 🤔
hindsight... wouldn't have been ''better'' to put in 10% of the bag... run that thru... do your checkes and verify calibration BEFORE you dump the whole bag in and possibilly drop the whole acre in ONE ROW ... ???? that popped into MY HEAD...
No calibration necessary. With this planter,, we could choose precise seeding rate.
My grandpa always said you get more in a crooked row
Tim I try to hit between 34,000 and 36,000 population but in my case I fertilize enough to produce 300 bushels per acre but in reality I hope to grow between 230 and 250 bushels per acre. I actually try to put 300 actual units of nitrogen so that figures out to be 1 unit per bushel available under perfect growing conditions. It seems to me that 18,000 population is really low but then I don't know the available nutrients in the soil where you are.
…but this is old open pollinated corn. I though they used to plant it much lower population?
Tim you need to check out tractorpartsasap they make a funnel insert for the seed box that helps every last kernel get down to the meter. I have a two row John Deere 7200 planter that I use for sunflowers the inserts made a huge difference and they are relatively inexpensive. part number 117465
Nicely done. I'm impressed with how well you held you row straight. I might have to upgrade my #71 Deere 1 row planter. Take care, Jason
Throw 50 pounds of something in the fertilizer box or strapped on the back of that planter. Skip the tilling and plowing and all that stuff.
How do you plan to control weeds with that approach?
Tim, maybe you could start your own RTK business for compact utility tractors and call it B(ee)PS... when I was a kid on the farm in Alabama, we planted our corn in 38" rows because that was the row spacing for cotton and the planter was already setup that way and my dad wanted the white OP corn 8 inches apart in the row so we would shoot for 20 to 21 thousand plants per acre. We planted up to 5 acres that we pulled by hand in the ear and would crush it for cow feed and use some to make corn mill. There was still an operating grist mill in our community up until the late 1980's. Great video and I would love to see the progress of this plot throughout the year.
When we planted our garden(s), my parents, both sets of grand parents, we used a single row planter but it was a "push type". Meaning you yourself could push it and plant with it. Only, we used small chains and mounted it to the rear of our garden tractor, our rows were planted identical to yours. Followed the tire tracks from 1 row to the next. I'd love to get a 4 row for my 4710 JD.
1 acre is 66' x 660' just for future reference. Great video, cheers :)
Wish the focus was better.
Just some ideas for next year, personally I'd do a minimum of 2 acres and rotate one acre of corn the other into clover and keep switching. he could still graze the clover once it's mature, also I'd buy a non GMO seed and plant a minimum of 28k seeds per acre, it will help shade the weeds out faster and has higher yield potential. Overall it was a fun video
Hi Jim just wanted you to know how much I appreciate how you talk about your dad obviously Meant a great deal to you I can appreciate that because my dad died on Father’s Day 2019 and I miss him dearly so I understand
Wow! Back in that day I remember cultivating the corn fields for my Grandfather on a John Deere A tractor. Two row corn picking in late fall while it was snowing. And shelling corn for the next season. Work was non stop, every day. What a wakeup! Thanks for the video. Best wishes.
Also, I would say, you get more plants in a crooked row. My cousin(the farmer) replies, you know who says that? He that cannot plant straight
I'm old enough to remember what trying to farm without herbicides was like.
Good luck!
BTW, if someone could have found a good use for cockleburs and giant foxtail, farmers back then would have been richer than oil producers! 😁
Was impressed in how straight you were able to maintain it. Probably would have been easier if you would have brought your harrow or if it would have been last worked inline with the rows. Didn't see any seed trench digging to confirm depth and spacing???
Carpenter bees will sting it you run. I was raised around them and my wife (who I told to move slowly) got scared and ran and it nailed her in the back. When I had my own place all buildings are metal.
Would of liked to been there with you to run old iron against new iron. I have and use my grandfather's 62 Ford 4000 and a 50something Ford 12-88 two row planter. Many acres of sweet corn have been planted with it. Maybe next year we can get together on a project and tear jp some ground.
Two row planting means the tires should be adjusted. We had a row wide and changed to 8 row narrow which changed tire width. One row is the max on that one. Rows were for the mules to go down. Funny we haven't changed. You can get more seeds in a crooked row! 😁
You did great with little Johnny getting in the corn. Now you need to plant some beans, that way with the pumpkins he'll have the 3 sisters.
I love those old 7000 planters. Even cut up into pieces they are still better than anything else that doesn't require obscene amounts of HP and $$.
If you went straight to planting without stopping, how long would it take to plant an acre with that one row? I have a 4 acre field and curious if I can get away with a 1 row and save some money. Thanks!
Sure. Could easily do it in a day.
What will you be using for harvesting? If a one row harvester, you’ll be fine. If 2 row, you’ll have to ‘drive very straight’ while planting.
All for dove hunting ! No harvesting, we just bushhog strips and eventually mow it all down. We have been doing broadcast spreading and plantings, but looking to plant on rows. Very good to know, thank you@@TractorTimewithTim
The bee is because of the exhaust
Better a carpenter bee than a deer fly. Just fought off a couple while mowing the yard. I remember years ago working on the farm and the deer flies were lined up on the hood of the tractor like planes on an aircraft carrier just waiting their turn at dive bombing me. Miserable!
It’s awesome to see examples that you can still accomplish a lot with what you got. Your videos show how useful the John Deere 1 series tractor can be.
Pretty sure you'd need to know how many seeds in the bag to be able to figure population per acre to plant at. That's how I do it anyways.
Where did you get that planter? I’ve never see one like that with a real John Deere planter row on a frame like that
joharrissales.com
the other advantage of open pollinated corn is : it will over years adapt to your soil and climate, so saveing it each year gets better, but to save it you need seed from over 200 different plants otherwise you get inbreeding. also, if you grow sweetcorn and a neighbor grows maize / dent / or popcorn, you will get a mix of that,
I always get a kick out of seeing those enormous planters heading to someone's farm that Vaughn Bauer builds. Makes me think of all those farmers putting the corn flakes in my cereal bowl.
It’s amazing what you can learn when watching something you enjoy. If I was in a classroom, I wouldn’t retain any of that information. Great video guys. Great camera work too!
Tim Christi and friend this is some of the thought of how much and what kind went into farming in in40s and 50s
God Bless All
PaK
Idk anything about farming & will never be a farmer but I do like knowing a little about a lot so your vids are really a great educational tool.
I love the Bible verse. And all that you do. Back in my teens and 20s dad work his garden.
It's going to be interesting, seeing how that corn turns out, without adding any fertilizer. On a side note, when I was a kid, I remember my grandpa always used the same corn each year, saving out the best ears for seed corn. We lost that seed in a flood one year
Interesting video, I too am curious to see how the corn and the operation works out. I’m guessing we’ll see some follow up. Blessings.
Dad started on a farm at birth. He said that they would plant two rows of sweet corn and the rest in feed or field corn. He then went on saying they ate early field corn as it was ready sooner and it was still soft and nice. As the field corn aged on the stock they switched back to sweet corn. He plowed with a 4 horse (Morgans) plow. It would be really good to know if a cup of seed or a pound or half pound - to the number of rows or length.
What you’re thinking of with the gmos is they use a tool called a gene gun, typically the desired gene like the roundup ready trait, is coated in gold, and they use helium to inject it into the cell wall of the plant. Pretty neat process.
I said a little prayer to keep disease and bugs away from that crop and for it to flourish. Good video
Tim must have been giddy with excitement to have an excuse to use the planter for more than 5 minutes planting sweet corn.
Hello, would you help me tell me where I can buy such a planter. contact the sellers
Listed in the video. joharrissales.com
What’s the name of this planter and where did you get it from?
Discussed near the end.
My neighbor used to say if all the rows are straight your due to break something for sure.
Hi Tim an Christie thanks for the video have a day love from TEXAS
This is great Tim. If you have time I would be interested on seeing how Rich's corn field is doing from time to time. Very interesting video. Thanks.
You just have to love planting season....love these types of videos👌
I was always told growing up that you get more corn in a crooked row than a straight row
HI Tim, would you know how much your one row planter weighs, I have a 2038 and am thinking about getting a 3 row on 36" spacing and am wondering if the 2038 would lift it, also I did hear what type of meters you have, I don't know anything about the types there are only heard the term finger pickup and precision pickup, I am wanting the type best for Sweet Corn, Thnxs
I have the finger pickup. The precision are better. ...but doesn't really matter honestly. You don't need 99% accuracy in seed drop. You'll get 90% accuracy (or better) with the finger pickup.
If you call joharrissales.com they will fix you right up. ...with either meter type.
I think the 2038r would pick up a 3 row, but not totally sure.
Great video!!!!
Wow! I never saw a single (double ? ) row planter before
What kind of corn 🌽 🤔 are you planting?
