[Edward. S]

I'm back with pictures with more tomorrow!

Picture 1 : First Load of the day.

Picture 2 : Driving

Picture 3 : 6715 Plowing.

Picture 4 : Hot and Steamy.

Picture 5 : 5085M Taking the big hill. In D2 @ 1800 RPMS 10 MPH Something like that.

Picture 6 : More Spreading

Picture 7 : Manure

Picture 8 : Wait... so who closed the gate?

Picture 9 : Me: "Whatcha guys eating?" Crows : "oh nothing just lots of snit"

Enjoy, planting tomorrow, more manure, C250, 5200, rollers, maybe a little bit more 5085M and a little bit of the 4700 not sure what I'd be using for tomorrow. Just more work.

5420 is down for now, needs a new belt and a new fan tensioner thing. Stuck in the field I was working in today, took off the smv and locked it up hope no one sees it.

Love those pictures, Edward!! :thumbsup: Gettin' to sit in the tractor, drivin' down the field; **** just flyin'! :laughing: All from the comfort of my computer...

Way too much snow up here, yet. Anchorage just broke the all-time snow record, today. We had about an inch or so - just covered all the ground again - but was mostly melted off by the end of the day.

Not so in the woods, though. Still plenty enough snow to ski, snowmachine or fall into up to your crotch!

Thanks again for the pics! Like seein' green fields.

Buy lots of snow / ice melt :laughing: Would be pretty pricey. I cant wait for my new tractor to be here! Around 10 more days! . I was driving up to the farm with the 5085M yesterday it takes 10 minutes going 12.4MPH and I got there in 7 minutes going 15 Miles - Top speed.

Enjoyed...thanks.

No prob' I will have more later tonight from the last few days.

Maybe I can post some pics today - slogging in the snow and muck! Need to clear a few trees next to the high tunnel/greenhouse.

Gotta get 'em down and all the scrap burned before I lose my snow.

Been nice here for the past 4 days or so. Up into the low 40's. Plenty of water and mud!

Don't sweat it, my actual fields are still wetter than ever. I feel like year after year everything's getting worse, but we all have to keep going. Still wanting my 6430 Premium to be here quicker..

Nice looking soil.
Again thanks for the ride.

Thanks, Edward. Got to spend the whole day... in a bunch of different tractors!

Nice farm fields. I looked those pictures over and over - not a rock - not one! :thumbsup: I'd say you must raise some beautiful veggies in that dirt!!

Just what were those transplants, anyway? I did notice that some of the field workers looked to be cleaning up (fixing) some of the plants that either weren't covered real well or just didn't get in the hole correctly. Is that what they were doing??

Thanks again, for all the pictures. Almost made me wanna kick my boots on the step before I came into the house... some of that dust in the air ya know!! :laughing:

No rocks? Are you serious? This field is full of rocks. I hit a big one with the 975 well my worker did. Broke all 3 shear bolts. :laughing:

Sure does raise good veggies, Different veggies like different types of dirt. One of the transplants are both Asian greens one is a Chinese broccoli but there is actually no broccoli fruit. The other one is kind of a edible canola I'd guess. But you don't eat the flowering part, you eat the whole vegetable for both. The flower on the broccoli is bitter and the canola like vegetable is sweeter when the flower comes up.

They are manually planted, I wish I had some poker device for the harder packed soils. After the Plow, disk, C250 then its has a special roller that makes squares on the beds then they are manually planted in.

I usually keep the dirt in the fields not on my porch.
