Shoutout to Ryan and Soil-Max for helping get this plow working and tile in the ground. We may be rained/frozen out for the season, but excited to use it for years to come... EDIT: After posting we found DRONE FOOTAGE that was corrupted when rendering out video, edits on TH-cam are being made and will take a few hours to process, but just a few parts in the video had to be cut out. FYI
That is awesome!! as somebody who wants to be a first generation farmer. It’s so exciting to see how far you guys have come from when you started. Absolutely love your videos.
Grant, I have used a soil max and they are a good plow. My free advice: buy as big of a plow that you can afford, there is always a deep cut somewhere. Keep trees and brush away from tiles, especially outlets- roots will soon plug them. Use a tile feeder in hot weather for sure, it will easily stretch. Tiling when it is dry is much easier. Always plan on tiling the entire field, even if you don’t think you ever will. Keep your ditches cleaned, tiling won’t overcome poor surface drainage. Good luck!
Thanks for advice Tom! Yeah goal is to get every piece of owned ground all tiled out. If we have to go over 5.5ft deep plan is to cut it out with excavator so we can still pull through it. 👍
@ You won’t regret any tiling, our main problems are tree roots along edges and field mice. We’ve had the best yields ever the last five years, tiling definitely a big part of that.
It’s rare to see first generation farms these days so it’s really cool to see you guys creating a working, well managed farm from scratch. Keep up the good work👍🏻
You guys are really blessed to have such helpful friends around you. Can't even imagine trying to take on a project of this size doing only what research you can without having someone to help guide you.
im a farmer from south africa and i watch your videos all the time, it really is entertaining, keep up al the hard work and congrats with everything you have accomplished sofar
Rain may have slowed you down, but this video shows how preparation and determination keep the project moving forward! 👊💦 Your explanation of transmission options was spot on.
You can take your tile plow and run to the inside of your last tile on the trees side and do that every few years and it should keep the roots clipped back and keep it from plugging.
It looks like your plow is working good tile is extremely benefit nothing pays any bigger than tile we have a steiger tiger industrial with a tile plow
love that setup! 2 good ol deeres putting in some work! i think next summer you should bring those big horses to a tractor pull, just to see how they could perform lol. Love the vids and can't wait for spring planting to come around again to see what the new tractor can do!
righton!! congratz!!! that visit with BEN really motivated you eh?? it is pretty awesume beein able to just GO OUT AND DROP A RUN ALONG A WATERWAY whenever the problem is noticed instead of havin to budget for and schedule someone to come out to do... yea... ;) really cool! CONGRATZ!!
Grant an Spence, what y'all could do with that plow is get as close as you could to the tree line using no pipe an just plow what a pipe would be at depth wise just to cut roots in half at that depth an then it would protect ur pipe from ever plugging with roots, an u could do that maybe once every couple years, an it would keep those roots from taking moisture from your crops also, thanks for sharing, longer video was awesome to watch an I look forward to seeing the next video 🇺🇲💪✊🤙👍🇺🇲🇺🇲 have u guys noticed water draining from outlet yet?
Hi Grant / Spencer, what tire pressures are you running on the two 4wd,s ? They need to be as low as ever the tire manufacturers recomend for the axle loadings you have, seriously it makes a massive difference to traction and obviously you need every bit of traction you can muster on the tile plow
Sorry guys, I had,nt watched to the end of the vid when I made the tire pressure comment! I saw the tires were,nt flexing early in the vid and assumed correctly that they were too hard
I’d love to come out and help out sometime this winter if you’ll have me! I’m apart of a family farm that also puts in field tile, we use a wheel machine, I’ve never been around a tile plow but I’d love to check it out! I’d work for free just would enjoy the experience.
What coefficient are you running on your mains and submains? We went up to 3/4 inch and it makes a huge difference especially if you ever decide to have tighter spacing. If you creek is close by, it isn’t a huge expense either.
This main is closer to 3/8-1/2. We only ran 6 inch, and installed on .10 slope. Probably right that pushing to 3/4 would be more beneficial. Will be interesting to see how it does!
We found that each jump in tile size is usually around an 80 percent jump in capacity for about 30 percent more cost, at least in the larger sizes. It’s just something we use as a general rule of thumb. You will love your tile. Have a great day!
Is it better for it to go deeper or shallow Bc I know y’all up there run big rips and deep till better here we just run a disk across first the run a field cultivator then come in a lay rows off and ether double row peanuts of cotton
Next time you pull a quick hitch off, and you do it with the three point raised all the way up? I’m going to drive from Texas to Iowa and kick both your asses! 😂 Here’s another pro tip. When you are probing for the pipe, instead of pulling it out and showing how deep it is? Put the probe on the side you are digging and that will allow you to dig down and against the pipe, not hit the pipe. When you’re just guessing, it leads to hits. Take it from someone who did anomaly digs on live gas lines for years. Never touched a line.
Hey, these kids are still figuring life out. Takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there like they are. That many people can do that. Or are willing to do that
Chain on tile plow is a manual depth gauge. That yellow tag on it marks 36 inches deep. So every once in awhile I can look back and manually check it. That way if I think RTK or settings are out of whack I can do a real quick verification by looking back at chain.

awesome job Grant
I remember when Grant would talk about getting a bigger tractor for a tile plow, and now its happening. Good job guys.
That is awesome!! as somebody who wants to be a first generation farmer. It’s so exciting to see how far you guys have come from when you started. Absolutely love your videos.
Thanks Noah!!
Me to Noah

We have a soil max gold digger it’s an older version but they are very nice

Definitely!!
He went from playing fs to farming irl, it crazy what you can do, love the vids grant
It's nice to see young farmers with so much enthusiasm. Great job guys and gal. Here's to your success.
Awesome, hope it works better than expected, thanks for everyone’s hard work to make the land productive and reduce erosion for everyone.
im a farmer from south africa and i watch your videos all the time, it really is entertaining, keep up al the hard work and congrats with everything you have accomplished sofar
Brother buch is with you guys as well I’m glad I knew he would be. Spectacular Spencer and grateful Grant well done and Josie ❤.
All the 3 tractors out and about
That's one of the slickest looking tile plows I've seen. Best of luck.
I make those Tile coils for a living pretty satisfying seeing it being used in action!
As somebody who does drain tile as a job this video was very entertaining somehow lol
Nothing like the smell of fresh tile work in the fall! 🍂💦 That 8320R and Soil-Max plow setup looks like a match made in drainage heaven! 🚜💪
This so awesome that you don't have to pay someone to do the tile! I love the video keep up the great work!
Thanks for a really good look at the process of tiling.
Understand it more!
Keep Smilin!!!!
I'll give it to that SoilMax rep for helping you boys get everything set up and battling in the rain. Solid dude.
Rain may have slowed you down, but this video shows how preparation and determination keep the project moving forward! 👊💦 Your explanation of transmission options was spot on.
Ryan is the man the myth and the legend when it comes to field tile.
Great job thanks for the great videos and the great music, keep up the great work all the best to you all
Super great job!!!! I see a custom tiling crew in the future. The technology is amazing!!!!
Awesome video grant awesome to see the 4020 working hard.
Watching you farm in real life while I’m playing FS22 😂 love these irl videos keep up the amazing work Grant🔥
I enjoy every video you downloaded keep on with the great content
You and Spencer work good together i lost my brother back in2015 miss the great times you are blessed to have each other
Sweet drone shot with the train
Wow. There seems to be nothing you guys won’t tackle. My hats off to ya
Nice work with this tractor
Cool to see the dream coming true 👍
Sick video as always, watched all your videos over the last week. Some great stuff
Great song for the vid Grant
Hell yeah, that was awesome! I love videos like this! Keep up the hard work 💪🏻
That 4020 looks really sharp with that cab on it
the best-looking tractor in the video!!
@@patbormann8064Nah 8320r lol
You can take your tile plow and run to the inside of your last tile on the trees side and do that every few years and it should keep the roots clipped back and keep it from plugging.
Very nice setup with the tractor
It looks like your plow is working good tile is extremely benefit nothing pays any bigger than tile we have a steiger tiger industrial with a tile plow
💯
Your videos are some of the best out there why to go 👍
love that setup! 2 good ol deeres putting in some work! i think next summer you should bring those big horses to a tractor pull, just to see how they could perform lol. Love the vids and can't wait for spring planting to come around again to see what the new tractor can do!
Loved the ZB montage, best of luck into the new year!
that is HYPE contrats dude lookms awesome
righton!! congratz!!! that visit with BEN really motivated you eh?? it is pretty awesume beein able to just GO OUT AND DROP A RUN ALONG A WATERWAY whenever the problem is noticed instead of havin to budget for and schedule someone to come out to do... yea... ;) really cool!
CONGRATZ!!
Great work!
Dude grant the new 8r has to be the best purchased you've made so far
Love the video grant !! Keep them coming 👍
14:16 Grant I have that same headlamp and I love it.
Great video enjoy watching keep up the amazing work

Really cool video! 👍👍
You got some REAL music in that time lapse bit
Great video, a really fun watch.
The timelapse with music was so cool
I remember the first video that came out on this channel, i even subscribed when the channel was in the first 600 subs
Great setup grant
Love that song on day 2… :)
Now I hope you had the David Wilcox song Laying Pipe blasting while doing this job lol
Awesome video!
Add a few components and that Incommand 1200 makes a great planter monitor for the 1760.
Great video, Id like to do some myself some day!
Thanks Cole! Always enjoy your vids man! Yeah seems like tiling can def have some nice ROI. Still learning the tiling ropes myself.
@@granthilbert5632 Looks like you are figuring it out, great thumbnail by the way
That is some beautiful black dirt. I'm jealous you don't have to use sock on the tile lol
Who else here loves when Grant posts??
Tip for the point of your plow, weld cross hatching all across the surface to prevent premature wear. You’ll get a lot more life out of each tip!

Great vid grant
I sort of like these start to finish videos
Dirt perfect made his tile plow pulls it with his dozer. Pretty awesome . he does a lot of custom work spring and fall I think
Love the vids grant
best montage ever
I’d love to come out and help out sometime this winter if you’ll have me! I’m apart of a family farm that also puts in field tile, we use a wheel machine, I’ve never been around a tile plow but I’d love to check it out! I’d work for free just would enjoy the experience.
Great video
You should add tile to American farming
Love the vids man ! I’d love to come down and help y’all out one day !
That would be fun
Will the holes in the drain pipe close up over time with the dirt? Thanks, great video
Nice job.
Anyone else getting super laggy video around the 15 minute mark? Hopefully it's just slow upload on TH-cams end
It’s a glitch in the rendering of the video. Currently working on editing it out right now.
Great video Grant. Super interesting! This may sound dumb, but would you recommend this process for a strictly hay farm?
Try this stuff called duck butter to help the two pipes slide into each other better

That is awsome! What kind of jeans do you like to wear?
Love it
A few years ago. My dad and grandpa were laying tile and they found a massive snapping turtle in the trench.
Nice video
Well done guys! Any plans to do custom tiling?
Be careful back filling dropping big chunks of dirt on the pipe, can crush it pretty easily been there done that
We try to watch very carefully, and everything gets bed by hand.
You should go along the tree lines to cut off all the roots
Yup planning on doing that!
So, how many acres are ya'll working now ? How far out are your fields? Do you have an equipment tour video?
Is it better for it to go deeper or shallow Bc I know y’all up there run big rips and deep till better here we just run a disk across first the run a field cultivator then come in a lay rows off and ether double row peanuts of cotton
Are you ever thinking of getting a track tractor in the future? My family just got a case quadtrac for are farm.
❤❤❤Good job very impressive Australia watching 🇦🇺👍🇦🇺👍🇦🇺🇦🇺
Hey Grant. I love your videos. I am 11 years old and live on a farm. I have a channel named Farm Life with Avery
Can you please do a shop tour and tool box tour
Not sure if u know who dirt perfect is but his home made tile plow for his 859 dozer looks a heck of alot easoer to use than this
Next time you pull a quick hitch off, and you do it with the three point raised all the way up? I’m going to drive from Texas to Iowa and kick both your asses! 😂 Here’s another pro tip. When you are probing for the pipe, instead of pulling it out and showing how deep it is? Put the probe on the side you are digging and that will allow you to dig down and against the pipe, not hit the pipe. When you’re just guessing, it leads to hits. Take it from someone who did anomaly digs on live gas lines for years. Never touched a line.
Yes, good tips! Thanks
Hey, there’s just speaking things out I mean like life lol! Takes a lot of courage to share like they do.
Hey, these kids are still figuring life out. Takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there like they are. That many people can do that. Or are willing to do that

Maybe it was mentioned but what's the chain for hanging on the right side of the plow? Great video guys!!!
Chain on tile plow is a manual depth gauge. That yellow tag on it marks 36 inches deep. So every once in awhile I can look back and manually check it. That way if I think RTK or settings are out of whack I can do a real quick verification by looking back at chain.
Gfs dad is the sales rep for soilmax
Do you run a tracer wire in the tile for locating it if utilities or telecommunications companies need to dig on your property?
1:39 i didn’t know that cool
@13:15 - You shouldn't back the pin off half a turn on screw type shackles.
