![Johnny Kee - Preparing and Seeding his Garden [4 steps to Planting]](/img/n.gif)
Love that planter. I want a 2 row.
I've been planting sweetcorn in my back garden in London (UK), it's nice to see you folks doing the same on the other side of the Atlantic
Happy Birthday Tim. You just keep doing what you do, the way you want to do it. I just feel blessed to be able to check out what you fine folks are up to every now and then, Thanks for the videos
Just is something about planting that makes the heart feel good...I still have to wait a bit yet. God bless
Nice vid, Love the scripture, well done.... May GOD BLESS us all....
I tell ya Tim in my opinion the planting tec. of that era of planters is the best. We have a six row and we always get a great stand. I'm very impressed with that tagline tiller it looks like a beast. I think your dirt perfect for planting, I like it when it's like walking on the moon. You did right by being patient.
Tim enjoyed the planter putting the seed in the soil. The anticipation of how long it will take to come up, and the joy of seeing the first shoots breaking the soil surface has alway been a treet that I never tire of. Thank you and your wife for the happy memories.
Just now watching this vid. No need to apologize for any of your implement purchases Tim. This is still America LOL. I for one enjoy watching new things and how they work or not work. Keep up the good work and great content. God bless.
Planter.... If it brings a smile to your face. Awesome! no harm no foul.
That looks like one of the JD Max Emerge planters sawed down to one row. Very neat. I'm keeping our old JD 7000 series corn planter with the Hope's of making these one of these days.
That is such a cool planter. You have it because it’s enjoyable to you. All that counts. And I hope you had a Happy Birthday!
Like the instruction you give and trying difference methods with the tiller. Can’t wait to see how the corn turns out!!!!
Your planter logic makes perfect sense to me. When I get ready to plant corn, I would like to do the same thing. Looks predictable and easy to duplicate somewhere else and/or for someone else.
You have great soil Tim. Here where I live it's clay unless you are in bottom land. When we farmed we plowed in the fall and used a disc harrow in the spring. My grandfather had a saying that if you plowed wet ground in the spring you would roll clods the rest of the year. He was right. Now everyone no-till's. I've found out that with our clay you can roto-till the soil too fine and the ground will crust over impeding the seed coming up. Thanks for your videos. I appreciate really them.
Happy Birthday Tim, love watching your videos whilst in lockdown in New Zealand!
Happy Birthday Tim! celebrating by planting some corn. I just got half of my corn in this weekend plan on planting more in a few weeks to space out the harvest.
A beautiful day for a Birthday. Sunshine and planting in the garden.. The dirt looks so much better without last years continuous rain.
Happy birthday, Tim. Hope you have a wonderful day. Hoping to get some corn planted this week.
Birthday blessings to you Tim! That is a neat planter and they have stood the test of time. Maybe Spring is finally here...
You can only wait so long for the ground to dry. Wait too long and winter will come before the crops are ready.
Happy birthday Tim!
14:13 In 75 days we'll still be in "corn"tine!
Happy Birthday Tim! Your garden looks awesome, love that tiller and planter!
It looks like you had a great time. I hope the corn grows well.
Wow I'm jealous, it was spitting snow here in w.Pa today and darn windy. To anyone thinking about a planter I bought a 2 row from Harris last year after Tim got his. I love it, it does a great job and they are great people to work with. They also ship them and it was reasonable.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TIM
Happy Birthday TIM
That is great you are able to "farm like your dad"! Keep up the fun! Take Care!
What a birthday present! Planting sweet corn. Happy Birthday!
No such thing as overkill if you're having fun. Happy birthday Tim.
Great video Timmy and the to the person behind the camera! Love that 7000 max-emerge planter setup! Nothing better than fresh sweet corn. Nothing better than eating out of your own garden, whatever you grow. Hope your dad keeps his farm in the family.
Happy B-Day Tim..! Hope you had a great day..!
One brave cat lol going up in the tiller keep those videos coming god bless us all
Great to see you in the field again Tim and Christy. What a difference a year makes. We are finding that too up here in Minnesota.
What part of Minnesota are you in. Morris here
Happy Birthday Tim! We share the same birthday. Really enjoy all your videos. God Bless!
Another great episode of Tractor Time With Tim.
Top job as always, Tim & Christie. I can taste that sweet corn already!
Great video. It's cool to see the cats getting involved. We have two cats that always want to "help" out.
Never overkill, it’s your garden, your equipment.
Happy birthday Tim hope you had a great day
Happy Birthday! No better way to spend it-on the tractor planting corn😊
I love the planter. Nothing like doing it the way dad or grandpa do
Triple sweet corn, excellent choice Tim , we are it all summer when we were in NY. I am a born and bred farm boy , so have eaten many kinds of corn. Love your videos
Loved this video Tim! What a nice tiller! And the planter is Awesome!
Tim , I loved seeing the tractor and the planter doing their thing, nice video, in muy ground Bodacious does well. 👍
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Tim!
Love that planter .
Happy Birthday Tim! Enjoyed the video this morning over coffee. Hoping you can do regular updates on the garden as the corn grows through to harvest for us. All the best !
I’ll try. It gets kinda boring as there is not much action on it until harvest.
Hey, Happy Birthday Tim!
That really is a nice planter. The cats were really into this episode, I laughed out loud when Mary fell.
Happy birthday Tim!
Thanks Tim, another great video
Thank you for all of your great videos. Tons of great in depth information. After watching all 8 of you john deere vs kubota videos I decided on my own Johnnie. Took delivery of it tonight. Thanks again for the videos.
Congratulations!
Good job Timmy!
Happy birthday Tim!!!
Thanks Christy and Tim! You make me want to get back into gardening. I don't use much anymore, Sons have Families now and moved out but it still interests me. Great vid as always.
We specifically focus on easy to maintain/ harvest crops. Sweet corn tastes SO good from the garden, and feels like real farming.
...and I love to watch potatoes grow!
We avoid crops which are ‘difficult’ or time consuming.
Happy Birthday 🎂 Tim
Hi Tim and Christy nice job and in 75 days you will have beautiful sweet corn freash from your Garden to the table you just cant beat it it will taste better than any sweet corn you can buy in a store the best of luck with it
Tim might I suggest getting a drag, it’s perfect for covering seed, no mechanical parts to fail, just heavy iron teeth. Makes a field or patch look awesome.
Best drag grandpa ever had was an old panel farm gate, ran one behind the harrows for years.
Happy Birthday Tim, been enjoying your channel for years and have learned so much. Tell Kristy for me you can have as many cheeseburgers as you want on your birthday. God bless you both!
Happy B-day Tim! Thanks for the awesome videos!
I plant usually 10+ rows of sweet corn - each row is about 60 feet long. I use an earthway-precision-garden-seeder. Rows can be spaced to 30+ inches and I can plant all the rows in about five minutes. For those who want a good planter and save some money consider those - about $125... The soil you have there sure looks heavy. Best wishes on a good harvest, Tim...
I am not happy with the results from the earth way planter.
1) it does not do a good job of seed placement. You may get 0,1,2 or 3 seeds in each ‘cup’ in the plate.
2) there is no way to change the population.
3) the wimpy ‘chain’ is useless as a covering implement.
Probably the best you can do for $100, but not very impressive.
@@TractorTimewithTim I've had a similar model for nearly 30 years.. I found that, by slowing down forward speed and keeping the hopper at least 1/4 full, I get quite consistent plantings.. If by chance an extra seed drops down it's not often and when plants get about 4" high it's easy to see any that need yanking out.. For the cost - it's worked well so far.. I also use it for snap beans etc..
Great video Tim happy birthday have a great day be safe and stay healthy.
Absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to use a planter like that. “Because dad does it that way” is reason enough. There are probably many among us that have a Johnny for similar reasons👍
I was going to comment, but you said it exactly like I was going to.
Well done Friend.
I still have Dad's 8-row 7000 planter, it's overkill to plant my sweetcorn with!
I'd rather find a JD 71 flex planter unit, they have the drive wheel on the row unit and use disk openers like the 7000. Using a plate in sweetcorn isn't that critical, and it keeps everything simple...
Hard to beat a single row or two row 7000!
Happy birthday hope you had a great day!
Great video! Thanks for sharing❗❗❗ 🙂🙂🙂 👍👍👍
Tim that group look bad but when you put that heavy duty tiller it look so perfect It looked like a real garden dirt
Tim thank you for my liking comment
Forward tiller dose not throw rocks and things up into your tiller housing. No more banged up top plates,etc.FYI Have a good weekend!
Can’t wait for corn on the cob!
Good stuff! Thank you. Love the nosy cats😂
Hi Tim. If you want to either dress up or level the top of your tilled soil maybe try either a power rake or a drag harrow. I’ve used both. Depending on how soft and or moist the soil is one might work better than the other. Either ay your not going deep into your tilled soil. The drag harrow is easier though just hook it up to your utv or atv and it’s faster.
Happy Birthday! I'm still waiting for my garden to dry out enough. The lower end of mine looks like a little pond right now :/
Well Happy Birthday!
Try to adjust your 3 point hitch lowering speed under your seat, might help to keep the tiller from going up and down with the tractor. Thanks for all your hard work Tim.
Loving the channel Tim.keep it up.
Happy belated Birthday Tim
awsome planter!
Looks good
Happy birthday! Mine was on Friday the 17th!
Farmers put nitrogen on during planting as a pre-emerge fertilizer then side dress when the corn reaches the proper growth stage when the corn needs the nitrogen the most. Nitrogen is highly mobile in the soil so it’s best to wait because if you you apply it all now everything the newly germinated corn can’t use will wash through the soil column and no longer be available when it needs it (coming from someone who lives on a 2300 acre corn and soybean farm and has a bachelors in agriculture (mix of agronomy and at business)).
Happy Birthday!!
I’m with Mary, chicken and corn!
Seeing the size of your garden and thinking about how mine is slightly larger and I use a push tiller and plant all by hand. Maybe someday though😂
Happy Birthday!
Good video guys. My how things have changed over the years . I was just thinking back to when you and Katriel were planting sweet corn at your old place with the Hoss Garden Seeder. I'm going back to the archives to re-watch that one. Keep the videos coming and stay safe.
I think there are two or three of those!
thank you,gotta love them cats,hang on to'em
Hello Tim Sure hope you shoot some Video of getting your corn to Harvest . Would be nice the final staging of picking.
Happy birthday🎂 Tim!🍔
Happy Belated Birthday!!
Happy Birthday.
Happy belated birthday Tim! The cats are a riot. Did you guys ever have dogs? A puppy would love running around in your property.
Tim nice video I own a 2210 JD and I bought 1 row planter from a used Allis Chalmers 4 row planter it cost me 35.00 and it plants perfect for anybody else out there who doesn't want to spend a lot of money catch some farm sales!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY STAY SAFE
On 30 inch rows it is super easy to figure out spacing... to count final population once the corn is up and out of the ground you measure out 17'6" and count the plants and multiply by 1000 to get the final stand population. so the same can be done in the other direction.
Happy Birthday
Happy birthday! Again, super jealous of your dry conditions. I've always wanted to try planting sweet corn this early, but it seems the spring rains always drown it out. Good luck, sweet corn on the 4th of July would be awesome!
Green Acres is the place to be!
I love sweet corn! I wish I was there with you to share your bounty.
I've been watching a lot of farmer channels lately and it is a little different to see them pull a 34 foot planter with a 400 hp tractor to what you are doing. :)
Best of luck!
75 days the racoon will be happy too LOL. Looks like the plowing helped dry the ground out. Can't wait to see the projects you have planned for this year. Great video and God Bless
Oh no! Our electric fence works wonders to keep them out!
@@TractorTimewithTim but they have to eat to 😞😞😞 LOL
I identify with you because I want everything small, because my farm is really small... I wish you were my neighbor
Happy birthday
Vinnie with the Air-o-vator to fine tune the top layer of soil?
I love your channel and I'm a cattle farmer in Indiana
Sounds good, Tommy!
