I came here for your "declutter my 100 year old farmhouse" series all those years back, and I've stayed for the family. Now I know more about farming than I ever thought I would for an Oregon girl. It never hurts to learn more, and I love that this is a *true* family farm.
👩🌾 👍🏻💪🏻
I did the exact same thing! Saw the declutter 100 yr farmhouse and have been an avid watcher ever since!
That little boy is adorable Cole
Shout out to Nave for serving you 5 ounces of meat, 2 eggs, a cup and a half of rice, and a "little bit" (4 ounces) of orange juice. She is a good woman.
Cole please make sure you check your safety bars are the right height when you are doing push ups. God forbid something happened you want to make sure that bar is caught BEFORE possibly hitting your chest. Especially when you are by yourself & have a spotter there. Chest crush injuries can/are fatal. Give little Edward a kiss for me. Absolute miracle & perfect in every way. ❤. Hope you all have a safe & successful harvest season.
So many small details to remember about so many things!!!
I’ve learned more about cereal crops in 1 year watching you, Zack and the Welker’s then I learned in 4 years of Ag college.
As well as all those, Mike's been keeping it fairly educational as well
That clean white shed sure looks much bigger when you have all your "stuff" on one side to make more room for the equipment to park. 👍
You are an incredible young man. The farm is flourishing with all your hard work. I am sure the whole family pitches in especially at harvest time.
You show SO MUCH patience with your Dad; you are a GOOD man, Cole.
Funny I was going to say his dad has sure shown a lot of patience with Cole over the years.
@@tommosher8271 i was thinking the same thing!
Love your dedication to self improvement!!! Very smart young man❤👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼
Yup just about as smart as me
Congratulations on your 2nd child 🎉
When I was 4-5 years old mom said she let me outside and she was doing some yard work and I disappeared she started looking for me and she found me on top of the grain bin about the same height as the one you showed the dog on she got me down and I didn’t climb it again got my butt blistered lol so be careful when the kids get big enough to climb the ladder or stairs buddy great video glad you guys are getting started praying for you guys a safe and plentiful harvest thanks for sharing god bless
People may not realize how important it is for you to exercise, despite how busy you are. This helps your mind, but it protects your body from injury. If you do have an injury, you are able to bounce back more easily. You need a bit more protein and complex carbohydrates. 😊❤
I love your enthusiasm for farming and farm life. And that is one seriously cute baby.
Hope you have outstanding yields have a great harvest and no major break downs
A bushel varies on the crop because it isn't a unit of weight, but of volume.
It was it ain't no more
@@tommosher8271historically a bushel has always been a measure of volume but because it’s easier to measure weight than it is volume, there’s standardized weights for each product that determines what a bushel is for that crop
So a bushed is still a measure of volume, there’s just a way of measuring volume based on weight
@@dantethunderstone2118 Yeah that's why I said it was. Bins and carts are measured to see how much volume they hold for the most part. Semi's and combines go by weigh and you lose bushels after you dry them and in places that have no way to weigh them as they pick and dry they keep track of the volume if displaces til it's sold and then it's wieghed to determine the amount. It's like logs at the mill they are bought by the pound but sold by the board foot. There's no cut and dry answer to it but for Coles world it's determined by the pound because it's how it done where he lives.
❓❓R u doing keto❓❓❓
Meanwhile in the other 90% of the planet we use metric 😅
Hope your harvest is great! I can’t believe that you work out so hard after a long day! I struggle to exercise at all!! 😂❤
Thank you for making us a part of ur life. I am loving every bit of it. Wish i could help too. Good luck with everything.
Wishing you a successful, but more importantly, safe harvest.
Thanks for sharing, Cole. Get some rest.
Such a disciplined person! I'm very impressed.
He's known to the ppl there as a mental warrior. At least I heard one of Coopers friends call him that.
A Bushel is a measurement of volume. Even though farmers are concerned much more with the weight than the volume. So the 1000 bushel truck will hold the same physical volume of corn and soybeans, even though they weigh different amounts. Same with the grain bins.
Well explain that to the grain elevator when they go to pay you 😉😉💁♂️🤣
@@kevink4914 Yeah yeah I know. That's why I mentioned that most farmers care more about the weight than the actual volume because that's how you get paid.
Had that discussion with two employees at an elevator. They finally understood that a bushel is volume, and each comodity has an estimated weight per bushel, which has become a weight standard for a bushel *for that comodity*.
The weight difference became that 'ah ha' moment for them.
Looked like Ellie was surveying her realm to me, happy harvesting
❤ Cole this is a great episode. Enjoyed this one very much. Hopefully you will find time to sleep.
Yeah, the Tractor pulling the flag is a great shirt!
I have been trying to buy my grand daughter one for almost a year now. If she waits ten years, she could fit into a adult small.
Pretty disrespectful towards the flag
@@dantethunderstone2118 how so?
YEEEEEEEEEES :D Every year i have been waiting for your harvest videos :D For me the harvest time is the most interesting. takes me back to my younger years when i wisited my grandpa turing summer times. All the love for you guys from Estonia! ❤
Happy Good Harvest !!!
Tractor supply stores usually stock a variety of premade hydraulic hoses and all the different quick connections for remotes.
Your dad is so awesome
Cute little kid. Looks like a chip off the old block mate!
love the videos, very underrated.🎉🎉🎉
Blessings to the Cornstar family.❤
Cameras are a must on any vehicle or farm equipment especially when you have young children or adults that are around you
And pets!
Working out never gets easier, but take it from a guy who just turned 67 on Thursday. 67 years from the day I was born in Mason City, IA, at Mercy Hospital.
It gets harder, especially if you get out of shape, for whatever reason. Lockdowns, motorcycle accidents, and so on, it's much more difficult as you age.
Take it from an old guy.
Ya aint old yet! We are the same age, and i just finished chain sawing a third of my overgrown yard!!(we got busy after the rona, and the yard got neglected. Hubby doesnt know what to do or how to do it (I am a Master Gardener) so he mows the grass and I do everything else). So old is relative
It’s started and before you know it will be over. Time flies. Have a safe harvest Cornstars.
“Knock out two stones with one bird.” Cole, are you channeling for Daddy Cornstar?
Such a busy life. Y’all work so hard. Beautiful baby❤❤❤❤❤
First day of harvest is always the day you try to remember what you did with a part 15 years ago. It just is.
God bless this harvest season! 😇
Prayer for a Abundant Harvest:
Heavenly Father, As a farmer, I humbly ask for Your blessings on my fields and crops. May the seeds I have planted grow and flourish, and may the harvest be abundant. Help me to tend to my land with care, and to protect my crops from pests and disease.
Save it for the pulpit buddy, not everyone shares your belief in invisible man made constructs that have been responsible for countless wars & worldwide human suffering & death.
Great video today, Cole !
My blue shirt with the flag on the back is my favorite too.
I try each and every day, to be a little more farmer.
I'm a Gardener right now, But I hope eventually, if given enough days, I'll get there.
Cole your workout are working well you look fit. Thanks for sharing as always have a great harvest.
Good comments on working out. I am 81 and still work out 3 days a week. Do 50 minutes of cardio and about 1-1/2 hour of weight work. Always feel better after work outs. People can stay mobile if they keep moving. I salute you for the continuous learning comment. As long as you are learning you are still alive.
May God bless your harvest and the Cornstar family. ❤️🙏🏼
Just got back from the Hawkeye Homecoming game, ( they won btw)… got a picture in front of the corn in front of Kinnick Stadium and thought of you all. It was a great day in Iowa!
Love the t-shirt!❤
Thank you for sharing this video with us
Never thought I would like watching machine harvesting and all that jazz ….first time I watched you gutted the house lol …great video Xx
Hey Cole! John with Headsight. We should just be a pass through with your gps system for beans. If you’re running into issues it could be a wiring issue that needs tracked down. Let us know if we can help in any way. 👍🏼
Such a cute kid
Congratulations on starting harvest your wife is gonna be so happy
Get this pinned
Love the part of you sharing your workout! My son, who is the same age as you also lifts weight.
He has been learning over the years also on works for him.
Edward is so adorable❣️
Go get the bean done guys. Corn is right around the corner..
Cole ur gonna need that strength when ur playing with ur kids. Ask ur dad,lol ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
That little bit of drool at 9:35 just shows how much you been hanging out with Edward.
😀 Now you've got to polish the whole bin to make it look nice again.😂
😂
cole i really love your videos
I was in Iowa last week with farm rescue couldn't believe how many gravity wagons farmers use out there.
Baby CornStar is adorable 🥰
We all love Edward
Wow, nice to see you using the weights correctly. Keep at it, you'll be very happy you did. I'm 77 with no significant health issues and I give weight lifting most of the credit.
Damn Cole you seriously have some energy and strength don’t know how you go so many hours in a day it’s impressive, reach over your shoulder and give yourself a pat on the back 👍👍👍
I’ve learned a lot about farming and family. Thank you.
Great video
Cooper deserves a raise!
Pretty tight tolerances on your grass lines, yessiree.
Get you some BIG rocks on the edge of the driveway Cole!!
A bushel is actually a size of volume (8 dry gallons, or 4 pecks), which is why the weights vary for each commodity.
I love that you guys seem to know what to check on each machine to make sure it is safe and ready. 💖
A bushel is actually a unit of volume, 64 US pints (or 8 gallons for the brits). The USDA defines a bushel weight for every crop because grain is bought and sold based on weight.
Sorry but 64 US pints is not a imperial gallon. It is a US gallon but as the Brit’s gallons are larger than the US version your statement is incorrect.
@@perpersson442 nope because bushels are defined differently for the US and UK. Much like Imperial gallons are larger than US gallons.
Cole put a fence up by your driveway. They will be forced to readjust or they’re going to hit your fence
We use a big clevis and pin to attach two single hitches with the auger hitches on top like you had it.
Forget what a bushel weighs, I can't believe you weigh less than 170 lbs. With the obvious muscle mass, I would have put you closer to 190. Very healthy regardless. Best of luck this harvest to the whole Cornfam.
Cole, try isometrics for 6 to 8 weeks for definition toner works amazingly on all parts of your anatomy.
I have that same blue shirt love my Cornstar Farms shirt.❤
Time to think of making a home for the wife and son. You have a house. Fields. Machines. Vehicles. A house to turn into a home pleases the wife.
Couple of things I do when I lift weights. Bench: I try not to arch my back so I put my feet up on a chair, makes it a LOT harder. Curls: I call this one the "21's". Put your body flat up against a wall (feet included) with either a full bench bar or curl bar with small diameter weights (dumbbells will work in a pinch). Do 7 reps from full relax position to half curl, 7 reps half curl to full curl, then 7 reps full curls (do all 21 motions without rest). You will feel the burn with that routine. Standing up against the wall when doing this exercise prevents cheating. It prevents the bodies propensity to arch the back when doing curls while standing. Try it, its a lot harder than in looks.
Your current meals sure make me think of Stan Efferding's style meals.Also it is normal that your Bench is stronger then your rows and your overhead press is weaker then your pull ups. That 80% comment is spot on, consistency is key.
Love this time of year
A little tip with the backrow. Rotate your hands, grip the bar the other way around
Lifting explanation was brilliant. I'm only starting to learn this stuff in the last year (I'm 40yo) and it's interesting learn a bit more about what the movements I'm doing are attempting to accomplish. I was a bit scared of big weights till now but I'm starting to get a sense about proper form so I hopefully don't injure myself when I try amp things up a little more.
Like Cole stated, focus on the muscle and be smooth in your movements. I learned from a champion body builder a long time ago, worrying about how much you can or are lifting is for kids. Yes you need to push your muscles by adding weight when you can, but as long as your smooth in your movements and not herky jerky.
@@hawks2252 yep slow and steady is the plan. I've got a trainer is monitoring what I'm doing so should be alright.
We all pray our farmers' harvesting offset the mass buying of farms by people trying to create a shortage.
I heard they going to plant grass
@@1961muskrat Thy will need that for the bugs they plan on feeding us.
Correct, us front line civilians need to help protect our food supply systems by not allowing those billionaires from buying up our farm land and controlling how much is produced and the cost. They are already trying to control the trucking industry which effects the supply chain.
It would be nice if Cole actually grew food
@@CSmith-oz4wp When they are ready they will shit off our phones and the internet most will be dead in a month. It's a long term plan and the same one they used with the Indians when they replace them with us.
Interesting. Majority of the farmers are done combining here in south western Manitoba. Yes, we harvest soy beans too.
Love it!!
A bushel is a measurement of volume, that is why each crop weighs a different amount. Some are heavier than others.
This video hit home for me. Your outlook, structure and discipline is going to let you enjoy life to the fullest. Health, mind and soul
Love watching your channel
A bushel is a measure of volume equal to 8 dry gallons or 4 pecks. When you list bushels in pounds those are equivalents in weight for different commodities. The volume of a bushel is the same for everything. How much each bushel weights depends totally on what has been put in the bushel. And even your pound numbers for corn or soybeans are only estimates as weight would depend on how much moisture was still in each kernel or bean.
Dear Cole, I’m always amazed at the infinite knowledge you have on everything piece of equipment you touch. It’s amazing to me. I have come to realize what an amazing farmer you are and will continue to be even in the future. I love watching you and the family work your amazing farm. Continue content! 👍🌺🌸🌻💐
Wish you all the best, but also strongly suggest fixing your lower back position for rows, before you hurt yourself. You're lower back should be straight, not bent, so that the power comes from mid back and not low back muscles/spine.
That soy bean looked like a Lima bean.
God please bless these amazing people! Keep them safe! Please bless this harvest! Jesus Holy a name Amen!
You need a bid clevis that will go over both of them then put a pin in with a clip
Take some Brake Kleen or lacquer thinner and wipe that sticky stuff off. You will have just throw the rag away afterwards. 🤘🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Awesome always cool stuff always thanks 😎
This video exemplified your drive ,desire and intelligence. God Bless You!
Put a few fake owls around your bins, keep them clean
Cute little guy there Cole ! I have 2 New grand children this year one born in Jan and one in May ,Both boys
Bushel was and is still used for an amount of dry goods, not a weight. 64 Pints.
Use goo gone on your nozzle handle to get the sticky off
I really appreciate your info & video on the weights. My son is doing the same thing & getting great results. He does tell me about it, but I don't get to see him in action, so I appreciate your video. Thank you ❤
