If you happen to get a picture of it, would love to see it in case I happen to see one at an auction.

I picked up a 5 gallon bucket of Urea, and Potash last year when getting bulk fertilizer for the hay field, to side dress in the garden. I never used any due to the drought. While hoeing the other day I was thinking I need to get everything side dressed, but meter it out somehow, not just pour...

Curious as to how you plant your pumpkins. The ones we plant at the County Farm Park, tow of the guys in the tractor club have a single A-C lower no-till planter unit, with drop tubes, and a seat mounted on it. Someone rides on it and drops 2 seeds per hill. Marks are painted on a wheel, and you...

I went to the Case/IH site to their online parts book for the 235: Wheels, Rear | Case IH | MyCNH US Store It shows that rim to be W6"X18" rim, but also N/A. Then went to TractorHouse and searched for 235's in salvage. It shows 3, but only 2 that appear to have 18" rear wheel but have...

All I can say is what I have seen here with it going off. It may disrupt the updraft that carries drops of water up into colder air to form hail. I remember them telling me it was good for approx. 80 acres in a radius around it, but at a 1/2 to 3/4 away here, never seen anything bigger than ice...

Here's an actual picture of it. Large conical horn pointed towards the sky. Inside that building is a battery of 12 Acetylene tanks connected to a manifold to feed it. It fills the chamber below the horn, and is set off by what the owner says, "is just a sparkplug." It fires about every 4-5...

It sounds more like the orbital motor under the dash may be the problem with the steering wheel spinning like it is. I don't know if this motor is used on all model 40's, but here is a link to AGCO parts showing the orbital motor...

My first planting of cabbage is looking great. Same cabbage in the pic in post 164 10 days ago I ran the tine weeder through. I'd given it a foliar feed, but mostly on the ground around plants of Fish Fertilizer. Just mainly 4 circles around the plants spraying on the ground. Waxy leaves won't...

Finally got a chance to try some of the asparagus I canned up about a month ago. Friends in the tractor club bought 12 acres with house & buildings that were part of a large farm last year. PO owner sold off the farm ground to continue to be farmed. Old homestead with a mini orchard and 2 huge...

Another 140+ cabbage plants, 4 doz. various squash, 18 Brussels Sprouts and 12 Buttercrunch lettuce set last evening and today and got watered in just before a nice rain to set them in. Watered in with Fish Fertilizer to give them a little kick start. Need to replant Beets not a one came up...

Ran the repurposed John Deere pull type dethatcher converted to a 3 pt. tine weeder for the little Sears ST10 with electric 3 pt. hitch. Makes quick work of cleaning up tiny weeds between the wide rows. 4 rows of Silver Queen Sweet corn put in with my Sears & Roebuck corn jobber. Also...

I don't know if it will be the problem you find, but if the points came from NAPA I'm seeing several Cub owners saying the spring broke on the points set after approx. 50+ hours of use. Also heard the Echlin line of ignition parts was bought out by Standard Motor Products, and at one time they...

Broke out one of the David Bradley's yesterday to cultivate the cabbage patch. Had to set 18 new plants because either the crows or Starlings pulled some smaller plants out. Ground temps are pretty cool yet here at 65º. Great for cool weather plants, but I'm pretty sure my beans I planted 10...

No, neighbor brings a lot of them, and I have a buddy who works for a lawn service that Vacs up leaves. Not sure what chip drop is, but wood chips will take nitrogen out of the soil to decompose if stirred in the soil itself. My buddy tried wood chips and his only complaint was in a heavy...

Youtube videos will show you how to do the Florida Weave. I just tie them off every post.
