for 600 dollars, seems to be working ok. Amazing that a young man like you was raised with such a good work ethic as to want to work and get things done. WTG! sure your mom is very proud of you. Great Job, mom!
Donna, thank you for the heartfelt comment. And yes, Austin is always working on something. He has always been mature beyond his years. He will spend much of his time with the older farmers and craftsmen that live just down the road and learn from them. Of course they love sharing their knowledge too. Austin is definitely a unique young man, and I am so very proud of him!
Awesome video. You made it down the trail to I'd definitely put up some flag's and stakes or a reflector on a stake to warn you about the narrow spot with the drop off as your going to be hauling Hay out of there as well .. that old mower for 600 is awesome still preformed awesome especially in that thick hay..
This tractor is almost too fast for the haybine. 4 low is to slow but 1 high is too fast. I also have to keep my rpm’s up. I try too keep it around the 18 mark.
@@RockWellAcresFarm2023 Your field doesn't look drought stressed. But Nitrate poisoning can happen in drought stressed corn, sudan, and. Johnson grass. I'm not an expert, so look up high nitrate poisoning / purusic acid to learn about it.
@@RockWellAcresFarm2023 Yes, looks like you are doing great. Work with what you have and be Thankful for it. Clean the equipment off, so you dont spread that Johnson grass to the other fields

That's a good idea! It might need more than one flag, lol.
Man, you and machine have done a mighty job, great stuff, I like you, love cutting hay with old haybines, great work matey !
Thank you! We appreciate you watching and reaching out!
Good to see, budy.
Hi from Brazil.
Hi, thanks for watching.
Guy seems like he does everything high gear fast as he can .
This tractor is almost too fast for the haybine. 4 low is to slow but 1 high is too fast. I also have to keep my rpm’s up. I try too keep it around the 18 mark.
This is awesome content! Keep it up!
Appreciate it!
nice looking machines!I wanna start making hay the same way.:) How many acres are you doing?
I don’t know exactly. Probably around 100 acres. That’s ours and the neighbors added together.
@@RockWellAcresFarm2023 wow 100ac in one cutting?thats a lot!:O
How old is he? He seems young, but doing a man's job.
Austin is 14. He absolutely loves everything to do with farming, tractors, and heavy equipment. He’s been that way since he was a toddler.
Open the rolls all the way. 8 ft grass.
The rollers are seized up. Stuck right where they are at. Lol
Buddy cows won't eat jhonson grass that has seeded
I guess somebody forgot to tell our cows that because they love it!

Your field doesn't look drought stressed.
But
Nitrate poisoning can happen in drought stressed corn, sudan, and. Johnson grass. I'm not an expert, so look up high nitrate poisoning / purusic acid to learn about it.
As far as I understand, it has something to do with a frost, and the plant cells inside the grass bursting that causes the poison.
I didn’t know that about corn. Hmmm…
A disc mower or a disc bine would make you never hook to that sickel bar bine agin
Probably, but I don’t have that kind of money. I’m only 14.
