I bought an Agri Fab sleeve hitch mount disc to till up a really rough part of the lawn around the garden so I can smooth it out into a lawn i don’t have to slow down on. I put off too long doing it this fall and the ground started to freeze then it snowed 10 days ago. So it’s a project for next spring.
@10:35 It always amazes me that whatever the video subject is, a perfect quote can be found in the Bible. Always look forward to seeing what y'all come up with.
Happy Thanksgiving from Mississippi. The yard is looking great. I can’t wait to see the Pond improvements next spring. Stay safe and God Bless. Signed The Other Tim with Tractors
Hi Tim, I think it would be cool if you do a little messing around in farming your self. Like disc an plant like 10 acres of corn an harvest it using your tractors. Maybe get a corn picker to run on it
An admirable job given the project enormity and available equipment you have. I think it it will turn out well. Happy Thanksgiving to you, Christy, Katriel and entire family. Blessings with much thanks.
Power rake might be the thing to use before you seed it also. I've farmed years ago, about 45 years ago so we didn't have any fancy attachments but we had a 24' Miller offset disc that you could really bury pretty deep, very heavy.
@@TractorTimewithTim not before I commented. I usually comment as it happens as at the end of the video, I'm old, I forget what I was thinking about pretty easy. Lol!
No real idea if this would be helpful or not... Would using a 2-shank deep ripper on Johnny 5 to break up the hard pan where the hump used to be help get a good stand of grass growing?
Tim, do you know of a third function kit that can be bought for a 5065E tractor? I have a 5067E coming in February and was looking into adding one. Dealer wants 3K to add it. Love your videos! Wish you had more on the 5 series tractors. But i have learned a lot watching your videos. Keep it up.
Hey I’ve been thinking about getting this tractor open cab but would like something to work well on my farm that isn’t all flat land, how do you like this machine? Any complaints on it being too small?
I really need to gut a disc like this, I think they make them for Frontier/JD. I just don’t like the way it walks around, I remember your first video of it!
@@TractorTimewithTim it definitely doesn’t do it as bad as it did before. I’ve thought about an 8ft 3pt one and add weight to it just because I have some short fields it will be hard to turn with the 5e
It seems to me like a disk like this is used in open areas, so I don't understand the concern of the disk shifting around a bit. It isn't like a drill or planter where having nice straight rows is important. What am I not getting about the disk movement?
Could you tell me the total length of this tractor and disc configuration? I just bought a 5e and looking into this disc myself just need to fit them both on the trailer
Unless you have a good 6 to 8wks before hard frost, you'd been better off planning on dormant seeding rather than put it down before rain and lingering warm temps into November to get it germinating only to have it die off. I did Dormant seeding 2 years ago on 2 acres putting seed down late November before the snow came here in Wisc and that turned out great come April when soil got to 55F and germinated. Ideally you want that soil to seed contact like you'll have but also the frost thaw cycle to help suck seed into the dirt and then snow to cover it from critters.
Winter rye now…… then drill it in the spring with a hay buster drill and the grass of your choice at that time. I would however put a field cultivator on it before disking as has been suggested already.
Could make it a mini hay field and he could sell bail hay good income would even have a spot to show other implements also Tim beautiful looking driveway
I understand completely why you chose the mask. Im still trying to get over being mandated to wear one, I think I’m a year past wearing. However it’s humorous, to see people driving alone with a mask on, in a car, not to mention a character in the middle of a field. Thanks for everything.
Yes. Rear gangs of the disk hang out a bit over the side of the trailer…but in need to adjust them inward a bit anyway, so would probably ‘just fit’ if the gangs were slid inward where they need to be.
Rains will come eventually. Or the snow will fall. You'll get some good grass I am sure. But gosh Tim that's a lot of grass to mow !! I have gotten lazier and filled my field with pine trees to make a nice wooded region.
By the color of that fall foliage there in central Indiana, I'd guess this was filmed in mid-October. With rain coming within a couple of days, that grass would most certainly sprout within 5 days of the rain. Combined with the still warm soil temperature, it would even grow quite well until the first freeze.
Very nice work and Christy's drone work is great for viewers to watch. Even after the power rake the hump will need tilled? Would your 3-point harrow have been any good at breaking the clods of dirt up?
Hi Tim! I’m about to pull the trigger on a 5075M and have gotten tons of good insights from your videos. Going to be primarily using it for snow and tree cleanup ina pine plantation. And thoughts or words of advice for must have features?! :).
You may not like my advice! I would consider stepping up to the 5090m so that you could get the power shift transmission. The straight gear drive tranny in the 5075 feels limiting.
At this price point stepping up isn’t a big worry. This will definitely be my long term tractor so good advice! That gets the de clutch feature ? Thanks for such a quick response! Figured you’ve tried them all so worth the ask!!
@@TractorTimewithTim it’s funny, when I went to scour TH-cam for 5090m it’s like a whole new series of peeps which was daunting :). Good news with 5090m is that they seem to have more availability and the used market is double. Looking forward to having a real machine to battle maine winters and relegate the x749 to mower only duties. As always thanks for provoking thought!
Hey Tim have you thought about keeping that spot as a “mini field” to plant sweet corn or other garden vegetables and test your tractor attachments out on? I wonder if you “ farmed” it for a few seasons to introduce organic matter and then fertilized before seeding grass the grass may fill in better than planting into that hardened sub soil?
"Is it too late to get seed to grow?" This fall, yes! However, the seed if properly fertilized/lime will grow next spring. You come from a long line of successful farmers, you will do fine.
Happy Thanksgiving Tim and Christy, and family!
Tim, I’ve just got to say: your mic quality is always fantastic!
Great work on the video.
I love the verses at the end my brother!!
Thanks much, Steve! Keep the faith!

Your disk is doing great for a first cut. I only think it would be cutting smoother if it had already been tilled. Roll On! Shine On!
Always enjoy the content
Thanks for watching!
Hi Tim, I think it would be cool if you do a little messing around in farming your self. Like disc an plant like 10 acres of corn an harvest it using your tractors. Maybe get a corn picker to run on it
What is the make and model of disc? Hard to make out what it is in the video.
Tufline. Monroe-tufline.com tell
Them TTWT sent you!
They want 30k for that disc
Putting a little bit of down pressure on the disc tires should help the sideways stability but might then lose a bit of penetration.
Looks like the dirt you have there has the clay base like we have in southern Indian, what a pain... have a great Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving to you the front is gonna look great when the grass comes up I’m sure it will be so much nicer to mow then the hump that was there
An admirable job given the project enormity and available equipment you have. I think it it will turn out well. Happy Thanksgiving to you, Christy, Katriel and entire family. Blessings with much thanks.
Happy Thanksgiving to you!

Did you get to the end? We were power raking…
@@TractorTimewithTim not before I commented. I usually comment as it happens as at the end of the video, I'm old, I forget what I was thinking about pretty easy. Lol!
No worries, Kip! Thanks for watching!
Are they still planning the subdivision next to you? The project came out nicely 👍
Yes.
Lots of rock out there. Some mud clogs but rocks. Have plans on rock hunting ? need a hammer 🙂
I hope that you will be able to get the grass seed in. Also I hope that you have a great Thanksgiving weekend.
Thanks William! Stay tuned. We’ll get the seeding done in another episode (or two?)
@@TractorTimewithTim Cool.I will be waiting for your video.
No real idea if this would be helpful or not... Would using a 2-shank deep ripper on Johnny 5 to break up the hard pan where the hump used to be help get a good stand of grass growing?

I do not. Sorry.
Me servirá para 20 hectáreas de cultivo de limón tengo una rastra de 24 discos y una pipa de 2 mil cree que me funcione el 5075e
think you need to rent a stone picker to get that cleaned of rocks.
As hard as that is if you had a chisel to run over it first then the disk would do a better job, but fuel expense?
Not too worried about fuel expenses. Small area.
Hey I’ve been thinking about getting this tractor open cab but would like something to work well on my farm that isn’t all flat land, how do you like this machine? Any complaints on it being too small?
I really need to gut a disc like this, I think they make them for Frontier/JD. I just don’t like the way it walks around, I remember your first video of it!
I wouldn’t worry about the dancing. Easy to fix. Right now, I’m preferring the aggressive cut, even though it makes the disk dance.
@@TractorTimewithTim it definitely doesn’t do it as bad as it did before. I’ve thought about an 8ft 3pt one and add weight to it just because I have some short fields it will be hard to turn with the 5e
3pt disk is ineffective. Highly recommend against.
@@TractorTimewithTim I won’t go that route, thank you!
It seems to me like a disk like this is used in open areas, so I don't understand the concern of the disk shifting around a bit. It isn't like a drill or planter where having nice straight rows is important. What am I not getting about the disk movement?
Why would you want that much lawn to mow? Why not rent out to a farmer or go wild?
Does this make you a pretty seedy character?
Not yet, that would be in the next episode! 🤣👨🚒
Would prefer to plow it so the ground gets opend deeper.
Tim had a subsoiler at one time
I have a plow too. Never even thought of that!
That 5075 needs bigger tires , so small ..
Front ones are definitely too narrow.
Could you tell me the total length of this tractor and disc configuration? I just bought a 5e and looking into this disc myself just need to fit them both on the trailer
They fit on my 28’ trailer. …with no loader on the tractor.
Good to see you on the tractor and listening to your commentary! You are the best sir! Love the channel and your passion for your work!

Hopefully you have had rain by now or have had snow! Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍽
Rip it if you can.
Would have been smart. Didn’t think of that

Happy Thanksgiving to the Marks family.
Satisfying to watch your work on this project. What great fall weather we’ve had to extend the season for it. Blessings.
Great video, and Happy Thanksgiving to you & the family
Disking is so relaxing. Happy Thanksgiving to the Mark’s family 🦃
If the grass doesn’t take… some corn or soybeans would look good there!!!
Like farming in the dust bowl 30’s or something.
Forgot to tell you Happy Thanksgiving have a great day
you almost need to find a center wheel weight for a 6 or 7 r tractor and put on that disk to give it a little help to bite in the ground
I’d be so tempted to take Johnny 5 & your disk to Illinois and do fall tillage on your 40… 😁
(Yes, I know you’d be there all day… 😏)
Have seriously thought about it!
I understand completely why you chose the mask. Im still trying to get over being mandated to wear one, I think I’m a year past wearing. However it’s humorous, to see people driving alone with a mask on, in a car, not to mention a character in the middle of a field. Thanks for everything.
Yep. Same here.
Just curious if you could trailer Johnny 5 and the disc harrow?
Yes. Rear gangs of the disk hang out a bit over the side of the trailer…but in need to adjust them inward a bit anyway, so would probably ‘just fit’ if the gangs were slid inward where they need to be.
Rains will come eventually. Or the snow will fall. You'll get some good grass I am sure. But gosh Tim that's a lot of grass to mow !! I have gotten lazier and filled my field with pine trees to make a nice wooded region.
Maybe over time something different…

With rain coming within a couple of days, that grass would most certainly sprout within 5 days of the rain. Combined with the still warm soil temperature, it would even grow quite well until the first freeze.
Yep, we’re behind. Play along with us…the story will continue, with date of seeding provided in the seeding episode.
That will be real nice when the grass grow in .
Maybe you already applied the lime? Lime helps the fertilizer work. Must apply lime. That's the simple way to describe it.
I didn’t have time. I’ll do that in spring.
Need to get a soil test to be sure.
I never really thought about it, but now that I think about I just wanna say big props to your wife on her camera/drone shots! Very well shot!!!
Thanks!
That's a lot of Rocks to pick!!!
Have a great Thanksgiving
Happy thanksgiving
Very nice work and Christy's drone work is great for viewers to watch. Even after the power rake the hump will need tilled? Would your 3-point harrow have been any good at breaking the clods of dirt up?
Quite a mess isn’t it? We’ll keep working at it next episode!
@@TractorTimewithTim Its a thing of beauty, just like a farm field in late January. A mess would be if you didn't do anything with it.
Is that the new premium cab E series? I see side steps and what looks like a buddy seat.
It is not the new cab. I had the buddy seat put in when I bought it.
Great video!
