Thanks for the shout out man. Wednesday night live cold beer good times and it will treat your sense of humor like a rubber band lol. Not a half bad looking fields too eh..... 👍🍻
there is a mesmerizing effect seeing fresh dirt being turned over in a smooth way..and nothing like good neighbors and friends helping each other...great video...
That D2 plowed the field like butter. I bet if you had a 6 bottom plow it would make quick work of that field with hardly any compaction and no getting stuck. Good videos that show the whole Borking process!
I grew up running a billion "roller harrow" same thing different part of the country. That looks like a very large implement for the tractor hp. They do a much better job at 5-6 mph. A great trip down memory lane. Love the videos.
Thank you for the video.Not to be a smart aleck-My soil science teacher used to say that "dirt" is something you sweep under the rug.He wanted us to use the word soil.
I don't live in a rural area now so I don't get to smell the fresh turned soil but my nose does wake up when a engine near me is running non detergent oil like we ran in the tractors. You just can not forget something like that.
Those wet spots are obviously a good reason to buy and restore a vintage Cat crawler powered tiling trencher 🤣 Keep picking those rocks, in a couple or three million years you'll get them all.
Brillion makes an excellent seeder. I mimicked one for my yard grass seeding by borrowing the neighbor's roller packer wing section that resembles the rollers on that Brillion pulling it behind a lawn tractor then followed with a push type drop seeder and followed that with the packer. It worked great. Timing with the rain is everything though.
Well done Rick and Squatch. I don't mind Rick's way of saying things because if you grow up on a farm. And you hear your old man hitting his thumb with a hammer. You gonna catch up a lot of curse words.
I visited your friends channel and I'm sure that every third or fourth word starts with an f good thing my kids are grown and living in their own homes because I would have had to turn the volume off! Great video!
@@RickBork that's good point! I'm retired military and I learned that cussing was a good tool, all my guy new that when I started cussing they knew I was pissed and I used that same technique with the kids growing up. I've watched some of your videos and I really like your farm stuff and I I'm a fan and plan to continue watching your channel.
Were they all straight? I lean to plow on a four bottom being pulled by a John Deere two cylinder. When I farm in the Palouse area, it was cross slope with 12 and 16 bottom plows pulled by D6s and 350 hp articulated Massey. When I was in school, my engineering class drove some of the cat rubber track prototype rubber tracks cat crawlers. They were skid steer at the time and cat wanted to test them out the track wear on the hillsides of the area. That was a fun 6 hr labs for several weeks that fall.
It's a given in RI that farming included farming rocks. Annual event, walking in front of the loader tossing in the rocks. I'm talking fields that had been farmed for over 100 years. OH well.
"Cover your eyes, plug your ears, send the kids out of the room....." Dad was a Marine. There is NOTHING Rick wold have said that I didn't hear in normal household conversation.
Odd time if the year to be planting. Most fields should be working on second cut, are you expecting a harvest off this field this year? This just seems so odd and out of time to me, we always did spring and fall seeding.
What seeding rate and ratio of oats / alfalfa you use in Southern Minnesota ? Are you planning on talking the oats off as hay or do you leave it to suppress weeds ?
@@squatch253 South West North Dakota actually. I am back, retired after 30 years in a big city. It tends dry out here, Not often would we get more than 1 cutting a year. I am messing around with a couple of small 10 acre rectangular or odd shape pieces. The guy renting the place has maby a 70 foot air seader and over 100 feet sprayer, to big for small odd shape pieces. I have seen it all happen to the oat or barley cover crop, baled, grazed, combined, left to protect the soil, left for pheasant, and of course , get hailed out. I will be seeding in the spring, 6 lbs alfalfa and 40 pounds to the acre. I will mix it in a cement mixer, thing I mite add field radishes. The Farmalls, a M and a 450 will be there.
I understand removing the encroaching vegetation from from the field sides but puzzled by the big tree that is left standing in the field. It wouldn't take much in materials to put a drain in for that wet spot.
The field looks good, maybe you can put in some drain tile in that wet spot and route the water off the field? I did try to watch Rick's channel last time you mentioned it and i'm no saint but there's just too much cursing. Besides, he doesn't have a D2...
In comparing the photo of the old Cat plowing, I noticed one thing that you aren't doing circa correctly. You wear the wrong kind of hat Mr. Squatch. Your language one thing I like about your channel Squatch.
You plough 8 to 9" deep and bury the top that should kill it. You would normally leave it a day or so before you then disc, harrow etc it all down that should break up all the roots etc. I was a little surprised to see so much grass on top though. Thought the cultivation ground speed was a little slow, you need the speed and weight to smash up the ground. It might just be hard ground to work though depending on its makeup.
Another Squatch253 video, another immediate like and share. I do have one question though. How many hours of operation do you get with heavy use out of a tank of fuel on the Iron Mistress? Love your channel!
You can pretty much fabricate anything but you can't put a handle on a camera mount. I guess it has to be made out of cast iron or steel to get some attention 🙂

It looks really good. 😊👍🍻🍻🍻🍻
Rick Bork does that mean you have to watch your mouth lol
@@whathobogrohknowsjust dont tell your parents where you learned it 🤣🤣🤣👍
Rick Bork 🤣😂🤣😂
Damn you guys did a nice job on that !😁👍🍻🍻🍻🍻
Fresh dirt and hay are two of the best smells.
Cow manure is the third.
I would add good silage in my top 5 farm smells
Yes indeed. Nothing else like it
@@madmilko3507 you ever chew on silage up in the winter after its had time to pickle good? I love it lol
Great visit. Really appreciate the change of pace and getting to see some field work. After all, it's why one should own a plow :)
The field worked down really nice. It's always good to have friends & neighbors that'll just in & help out when needed. Stay safe.
Green Acres is the place to be....something something, is the life for me.
there is a mesmerizing effect seeing fresh dirt being turned over in a smooth way..and nothing like good neighbors and friends helping each other...great video...
Glad to see not too many rocks to be picked up.
That's what friends are for and should do. Help when needed.
Loved the insert of the vintage picture. That field turned out really nice!
Matt Stewart I agree, it was a nice nod to the past.
That's good you guys got that field worked up a seeded in and got a nice rain to get it growing! Thanks for sharing Toby!

l love how you get just beautiful plow lines with those double and triple bottom plow. just really awesome
Looks really good. It was fun to watch all the plowing. Especially with the iron Mistress. Thanks for sharing.
Very satisfying to see what you've done.
always nice to have smooth fields
Thank you for the video.Not to be a smart aleck-My soil science teacher used to say that "dirt" is something you sweep under the rug.He wanted us to use the word soil.
great job love watching your chanel
Field lookin really well look forward to seein the crop comin through 👍👍
That field looks nice!
Looking good gotta love the D2 plowing
Haven't seen a cultimulcher in years. Nice.

Nice video Squatch. 👌👌
I have enjoyed the Heck out of these Two videos, great videos Squatch, see ya on the next one
Nothing better than a Brillion seeder
Good morning Squatch! These uploads are gonna make me late to work😂
I see you follow Squatch also.
I'm surprised. That it worked up as well as it did. Looked really wet all over when you were turning it. Going to make some super hay!
Makes you want to put a drain tile in there since it's so close to the edge of the field. Keep up the awesome work.
So much for the expert(s) that said it was too wet for Sunday's plowing in the other video.
The brillions are hard to beat for seeding grass, we used one for decades,.
Last year’s seeded field look sweet I’d say you will get a good second cut from that with the amount of rain you have had after that dry spell 👍🏻
My day is starting out great now 😊 thanks for everything you do bork is a one of a kind lol God bless
“Lord I apologize” lol
Well done Rick and Squatch. I don't mind Rick's way of saying things because if you grow up on a farm. And you hear your old man hitting his thumb with a hammer. You gonna catch up a lot of curse words.
Nice update
I couldn’t agree with you more nothing like the smell of fresh cut hay and fresh turned or bulldozed land.
I served my life sentence working for local utility, as a lineman for 43 years.
I visited your friends channel and I'm sure that every third or fourth word starts with an f good thing my kids are grown and living in their own homes because I would have had to turn the volume off! Great video!
That's one thing that sells headphones.
Kids all learn it eventually may as well teach them to swear the right way 🤣👍

Looks like that will turn out good. I will say field tile would probably be in your favor though.
Good morning all 😊👍👍🍵🍵🍰🍦🍨
Wow stepping up squatch 3 videos in 4 days. (I think)
Will do but like you I'm not to keen with the worldly way of things but nice job over all

Looks like you got some rain coming
100 years from now, someone will be picking up that rock from his newly re-claimed field and throwing it right back where it came from. LOL
G'day Squatch
nice videos! i noticed the drive chain on the left of the seeder is loose and catching as it rattles around
Thanks a lot. Now I have to make another Google account just so I can give you two thumbs up 👍👍😁
I'm surprised how well that worked up. After plowing, it looked like a day or 2 of sun would have made bricks out of the clods.
that other fellow is amusing lol

👍
Have I missed something, but what are you planting back? Grass/clover mix?
Is there much of a difference in the D-2 and the H in fuel consumption if they are doing the same work?
Gonna have to edit that out hahaha
I wonder what the PSI is for that machine, actually on the ground
It’s normal to wipe, who wipes?! Haha
I see some one has been seeding rocks in your field again

So while everything is tore up, why not get the backhoe and lay in some tile?
Did I miss it? What did you plant? Alfalfa?
Is there 'robust' language on Rick channel? :-)
Great job getting this field done and reseeded.
What State are you in? 👍
Minnesota.

@@squatch253 I guess then some things just are!

Could you not put some drainage channels through that bad wet patch so that it drains the water into the ditch?

What happened to the X231
Have you thought about approaching discovery channel to getting a show. You would be able to do what you love and make a mint.
Shouldn't you let the grass die first( after ploughing) before discing

Nice to see some people aren't protesting or looting or something.
If you could pull that cultimulcher a bit faster it will level better.
Once I get my international running I will but behind the kubota that's all the faster I want to push it.
Oh come on now, his livestreams aren't THAT bad ;-)
I know right 🤣🍻👍

Grabbed he link and subscribed to you friend’s page. Hope to be a drinking partner on some of the postings.
Cheers buddy 🍻 I appreciate that
if someone feels like a prisoner at work, I feel deeply sorry for him. maybe change work, or become a farmer full time?
I’d rather the life of a farmer’s daughter.

I hope you do not pick up any bad habits or behaviors from your friend, I much prefer family-friendly streams.
