- Live off the land. Making the rows with a one tire plow, water with solar power pump. I am planting my winter garden next to my fall and winter garden. There is always something fresh to eat year round. Be self-sufficient.

You are a MASTER homesteader. Truly inspiring, thanks for sharing!
Mark - I've said it before and I'll say it again...you're the working-est man I've ever seen!!! Great work!
One thing I've learned in 50 years of gardening is don't broadcast chemical fertilizer. You are salting the soil and will kill it. I did that at one time and within 3 years had a dead garden. If you have plenty of water you may get away with it a bit longer but If your water supply is limited DON'T DO IT! If you feel you need to use a bit of chemical fert keep it right in the root zone of the plant. Pop a bit in the hole when you plant or a bit around the plant under the drip line. Needless to say the ideal is NO chemicals.
Theres one of those one wheel plows in a shed on my inlaws property-someone robbed the engine years ago.This video has inspired me to go check it out in more depth.Thanks
My grandpa used to have one that I used in his garden. I wish I had it now for my garden.
I like the old Briggs an Stratton engines they last forever! Great video thanks
hi mark, I just love to see people living off the land, I'm a city man and want so much to give it all up and buy some land. I live in Scotland and land is jus so expensive. but I shall continue with my dreams and best of luck to you.
You've got a wonderful garden, I am a welder fabricator and I am going to build some implements for my tiller something like a row maker and a plow disk and what ever implements I can invent for it. Thanks for the wonderful video!
beautiful garden you have that row buster does the work of a good mule too really nice looking place you got.
I gear reduction Briggs engine. Between 5 and 7hp. Will run for years with minimal maintenance!
I found an very old one wheel plow on my property I bought. The engine is frozen, but just like @Tom Langley I plan to try and rehabilitate it.
Jim Walker that's cool. I got 1968 homko tiller with a 4hp Briggs and Stratton that I could've replaced but I wanted to keep it factory.
That one wheel thing looks like you could do potatoes real easy! Another great video Mark, Joseph T
That's some good looking ground and the row buster is pretty cool to.
nice old antiques but I will keep my rear tine tiller with hiller/furrower attachment and finished in one pass
Didn't read all comments, but, you have beautiful dirt, mister. Looks fertile.
badass slowmo tiller action man.
I took the tires off 33 years ago. I found it easer to just push down on the drag bar.
ive got a kabota tractor with a rototiller but what made me envious is the rowbuster . I gotta git one
Loved the video Mark. Let the gardening begin.
I have yet to come across a machine like that, I'll be looking for one now.
I have one I just restored it's about 35 or 40 years old if you're interested
A one legged mule! My gosh I thought that they were all extinct!
I think Maxim still makes them.
@ shebad +man dolinman2006
I`ve been watching it mesmerized.
I like the row buster too, it comes in handy. They don't make them anymore so I take real good care of this one.
I've never seen a row buster before. Cool tool.
Mark, your seedlings here look nice and strong, but I thought to share that I have learned to take seedlings with fragile roots, put them in a shallow pan of water (about 4") and swishing the a little to let the soil fall away. It hydrates them, plus I have the root system exposed to detangle. Best for onion seedlings so no roots break,. This method lets you handle transplants when they're younger if you need to.
Damn good set up for a garden!
all them wood shavings from the logging..toss em in garden..carbon for soil. I am sure you already have a use for that..like this video..cool OLD time tools :) You mentioned "compaction" that right there tells me you know your soil..love the videos!
Love those Collard Greens.....
had one for years, 5 hp briggs and Stratton engine, the decal on the side said One Legged Mule and had a character of a mule on it.
good looking garden...
You could weld a toolbar behind the tractor wheel and attach cultivators, hillers, even seeders
when i was a kid, we had a rotavater very similar: it was called a wolsey merry tiller and had a briggs n stratton engine. it was a great machine
I just had one of those given to me. Mine is called a plow hoss. Ive got to put a kit in the carb. Looking forward to trying.
That is a really slick machine, makes one wounder why they ever quit making them??? You have a nice place, thanks for sharing all the great info and knowledge 8^)
Very good work, I wish I can plant year round, mi place is too humid and hot
Country Folks will survive. I love your rooster. I live in a city and they won't allow roosters. When I was a little boy we had chickens, ducks and dogs. Now a days I can't even have a dog. Might bite a neighbor kid. It ain't getting better folks.
I bought one a few years ago after looking for one for years when I bought it they threw in a 2 wheel tractor with all the plows for $250 for all.
never seen one before . pretty nice .
If you had the drag pin installed properly, roto-tilling would have been much easier on you.
Very impressive. Loved your band saw.
Great video, love the mule... and what beautiful garden soil you have... 🤙
Man that RowBuster is a sweet machine, sure does make some quick work for sure! Nice update, thank you for sharing this Mark. God Bless, Wayne
throw ya some lime also, it will help the plants, and I after my okra gets about a foot tall I did a deep ditch and fill it with chicken manuer dirt that is mixed with saw dust the chickens rotted, my okr 10 feet tall, and yes I got tired of picking okra, hahaha,
Ye hum Kaha se let same he
You can adjust the depth of your furrow by lowering the front wheel on the one wheel plow.
I am a concrete contractor and my dad was a electrical engineer. I have been gardening, hiking and building stuff since I was a boy.
That row buster works like a hot dam!
Mine has a steel wheel
Definitely thanks for posting your videos. I hope to have a garden as nice as yours someday.

I had one just like it about 16 years ago. It was made by a chainsaw company in Alabama in the early 70's.
What a cool old plow! I'm betting that's not the original engine though :-)
I think those were sold at Western Auto Stores and were called a mechanical mule
Excellent machines 👍
Good information mark! Thanks Mike
very nice
I use a Everio HD JVC camera, 40 optical zoom/face detection and hand stabilizer. I am happy with the camera.
Why do farmers plant on the raised part of a row rather than the sunken part? Seems to me planting in the sunken part would allow for the plant to receive more water if it was in the sunken part as opposed to the raised part where water can run off. Would be much easier to water, too and less water waste.
Correct me if i'm wrong but it looks like your plow needs a smaller angle of attack. Soil piles up quickly, but doesn't remove itself so.
You've just shown that fancy new equipment is not essential to a good garden! Nice looking friable soil you have. Cats and blackbirds seem to love digging up my seedlings!
You made an interesting point about how our pioneering forebears would have appreciated a power hoe; I too have had similar thoughts. I'd love to have been able to give my great great grandfather a Lister (or similar) diesel engine to power various implements, a chainsaw and a rotary hoe! Col, Bay of Islands, NZ.
that is a very interesting rig move right along to.
A 'Tip of My Hat' To You!
hey bud next time you go pull up the okra put that oldie near the roots and get the loosen up and save on your back lol
Front wheel controls the depth
hello Mark, I am pretty sure that rowbuster of yours is going way to fast and hardly deep enough into the ground. the wheel at the front was in the air the whole time
Gotta search for the Row Buster. Plow Hoss is another brand, but I think they have evolved into the Hoss "wheel hoe", human powered row plow. I like the idea of not getting the tractor out there to compact the soil.
They still make that one wheel plow.
My dude you are really hardcore, I love the video.
its run good big work horse
Nice!
your videos are very professional but you need to be turning that dirt into living soil. really liked your video thus up
Beautiful....
Can you just hitch your chickens to the plough to nix the petrochemicals? Love the solar panel!
Just adding compaction to the soil. Thats all
Back doctors love machines like these monsters! Ruptured discs cost big money and are extremely painful.
its called a lister
have a tiller almost like that . It was made in the 70 s. Its a Montgomery wards . It has a 5hp motor . It looks like the motor has been replaced on your tiller. What size and type is it.
ncrdisabled Submarine vet I just put a new 5hp motor on it last year. I bought it back in 1980.
thatz a moldboard plow
Never heard of a Row Buster but it just got added to my "gotta have" list. Are you in Alabama? That kale was beautiful. Gets me inspired to plant some of my own. Another great video!
Neurotic Nation Yes, I live in south Alabama. Thanks for watching.
Believe it or not it wasn't your accent that prompted me to ask your location. It was the soil. I grew up on a farm here in KY and I guess it's just natural that the first thing I notice wherever I've lived is the soil. I lived in Foley and Gulf Shores for awhile and that dirt in your garden looked familiar. Thanks.
Nice
let your chickens till your garden
+bosyeux2 The problem is, the chickens will also EAT the garden :)
How do you keep your garden mostly weed free?! We till, we pull root balls out, we pull weeds by hand, we hoe and rake and no matter what we do....weeds & grass everywhere! We're growing in 8 ft X 8 ft raised beds now but I sure am missing my 100 ft rows of lady cream peas right about now.....
I use a special homemade tool for weed control. Here is a link to it.th-cam.com/video/E9VV7r3-Hko/w-d-xo.html
I use landscape weed barrier fabric (special fabric I buy it at Home Depot) and cover all the area and let only the plants come out. This allows water to go through but it blocks the weed to come out. It is synthetic - it can not rotten.
See as an example here:
www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Garden-Center-Landscaping-Weed-Barrier-Underlayment/N-5yc1vZbx4q
Play the video (in the picture). It show sit for planting flowers but it is the same for vegetables.
I go for a whole year weed sfree and then I roll it and reuse it next year.

You could go much deeper but you would have to work stronger.Same like with horse..
Goooooooood
That's a cool little machine, but the soil is sticking cause of all the rust, you need to sand it, make in nice and smooth/polish (weld them holes up too) then it will till a lot better and won't gum up as much. It could be modified into a furrower tool (double till,potato till) like this th-cam.com/video/lhyPIsGLtHM/w-d-xo.html and you could do two runs in one.
Has anyone got one of these with Planters?
am I the only one that noticed that there are no tires in your tiller. Is there a reason for that little option? Just curious as I have never seen that particular set up.
Why in the world do you use a front tine back breaking tiller?
WHERE DO YOU GET ONE OF THOSE ONE TIRE PLOW AT
Maxim is still making these. At least they were until a year or two ago.

What State do you live in? Wonderful garden and thanks for sharing!!
Ron B Alabama.
Hello, I have 2 of these I use for my lawn and garden business. One is an old Maxim Plow Hoss with a 3 hp motor and the other is a Wizard Power Cultivator with a 5 hp motor (I am restoring this one) both from the 1970's. They are great machines, simple with just what you need to get the job done. By the way Maxim is making the Plow Hoss again, I have spoke with them, they are very helpful and make great machines. Thanks for the video I actually use a picture of me using mine on my web site www.smittyslawnandgarden.com. Thanks again.
I saw your picture, great stuff. I have lots of old tools and I make some of my own tools and parts. Check out my other video on a 16 inch wide push hoe that I call a sting ray. It weeds between the rows at walking speed.
I will thanks.
Hi One wheel plow is a very good machine for small farmers.i want to purchase the same machine.Can you sent me? How many Price of it ? Iam from India.
very good machine, how much cost , and what is the company name and their website ??
It appears you are making 4 runs for 1 row?
Can I grow year-round even in my home of Minnesota?
+Cole Cameron No, Your winters are too cold in Minnesota.
markp0177
Darn :(
+Cole Cameron Yes you probably can still grow some things year round in a green house with some extra effort and equipment.
Cole Cameron I agree that it could be done with the right equipment and facilities.
Thank you.found your email id.
