Beginning Farmers First Harvest (Start to Finish)
In this video, we harvest the corn field for the first time. Yields turned out good and we got help from the neighbor and grain cart. Ran my brother's JD 9560 combine with six six-row corn head. Everything went smoothly for the most part and it was a good learning experience.
If you want to watch more videos from Grant's harvest you can check them out on his YT channel: / @granthilbert5632

Cool i was just going to ask for hour bros info👍🏻
You should build a back plate that can dump at the coop and fill the army truck with corn as well

Just a thought if truck don't have a hoist look for a gravity box to set in it then you can haul extra corn in truck plus added traction in your slipping issue

Your cab corn agent is a nice addition to your crew.
Given the field work etc, you had to do into planting season, I'd say this was a successful season Spencer. You've learned a few lessons this year that I'm sure will serve you well going forward leading to added successes in the future. Another great video and congrats on the season. Looking forward to what you're up to next
I’m so glad you guys are starting the process of getting transitioned to farming closer to home even if it takes a couple years
Super glad to see your first year on this farm yielded so well.
Great to see harvest is going good and it’s good to see a John Deere 4640 going hard because we got one on our farm
It's really awesome watching you and Grant through the whole process and where you are at today! I'm genuinely happy for you guys and you seem like really good hard working dude's and congratulations on getting your dream jobs going
keep this up my man! Very very enjoyable to watch

Thank you!
that was nice of your neighbor using his grain cart maybe next year you may buy a use Grain cart.
One foot in front of another - well done. Efficiency adds percentage points and it slowly ticks upwards. 1% is 2 Bushes....1% saving of time is 36 seconds per hour... equipment maintenance adds tons of efficiency. I would definitely consider some road maintenance and building a Culvert / access across that stream to speed things up.
Nice job boys, I enjoy followimg along. Order parts for that head, do all the rows.

OUTSTANDING video. Considering everything, you had very good yields. You and your brother are such likable guys. WIsh you had time to do more videos in between. Maybe that sweet lady could help. God bless you all.
Looking good Hilbert bros congrats on first harvest hopefully you boys will get a grain cart soon it’s a must need piece of equipment
i think its awesome your doing what you do after watching your videos i seen you went to Iowa state the funny thing about it is i drive for Decker Truck Lines and i see the trailers in Fort Dodge all the time for the cyclones i really enjoy working there its such a cool place to be employed for keep up the good work

OMG I love jackfruits ❤❤❤❤ Ahao was so proud sharing his sister’s food to his friends 😂😂
Great to see another Hilbert video. You guys are doing an amazing job, you just need to film more in between video instead of just putting a video out every once in a blue moon.
Congrats to both of ya!! Great 2023 harvest! 👍👍🤠
Great job! Wishing you all the best with the farm! An exciting time for you!
You guys rock be proud and continue to be awesome!
Love your channel keep putting out good stuff
I am glad that you guys had a great time
Thanks Spencer, great to see the process from start to finish
Such a good video keep it up, and I would love it if you posted more of them!
Congrats on your first harvest Spencer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hopefully the corn head is repairable without to much expense!! now comes tillage! Awesome job my friend👍👍👍
I am so glad to see you guys harvesting Grant hasn't done much filming at all thank you Spencer for the update!
Good job lad you and your brother are awesome young men
The beginning was funny 😂 with grant
Awesome job for your first year farming

Hi
Congratulations on your first harvest.
Love the video!! Awesome job 👏
Congratulations on your first harvest Spencer. I would love to see you make fodder bales
Wish you the best young man. You seem to have a good plan, I’m sure you’ll succeed! Good farming!
Been waiting for harvest videos for a while
Good deal , love the old truck.
Beautiful Rig going on here lads. Respect
That’s some cool machinery there. Congrats on the successful harvests.
Nice video! Love seeing that yellow and green!
I love that John dear harvester looks nice and them do looks nice for what Grant said btw love the irl farming Sim Spence
Great video.
Good job guys
You can open up the row plates on the header which should eliminate the clogging of that row. The row width should be set to the crop you’re harvesting and with Garry’s field being dryer the crop stems were also smaller which is why the header didn’t clog up on his field
Good job pro 👍
Nice work man! Hell of a first harvest on new ground and only will get better!! Maybe a new corn header in the future or a complete rebuild!
That's awesome Spencer I'm glad you had a good harvest hey spenc you and Grant should buy that tractor and grain cart that was a good setup
Yes a new farming video
Well done
need a bigger header for sure and a small grain cart keep getting land you guys will love it for sure great video
That is great yield for Year 1
Hope you have a bright future persuing dream!
Hope to see a few ton of gravel on that creek ford next year. Harvest turned out well for you. Nice.
Also good video took me a couple attempts to watch it all i got alot going on all the time but kept me interested enough to keep checking back to finish it
been waiting for while, love from 🇮🇳 In between i just watched all the Grant 's Chanel videos 😅
Nice video
Love that you guys are now playing farm instead of farm sim.
All you got to do is put the tail gate up and you could haul corn in it to!! Because that is a 5 ton dump ! And it will haul more then 5 tons
I recognize the co op, welcome to the neighborhood lol
Great channel as well as your brother new subscriber to your looking forward to more videos 👍
Ok, my only question is how do you “hammer down” “nice and slow”? You guys do a great job working everything out with all the coordination you have to do. Congratulations on a great season for both of you and fingers crossed you will both be able to continue to consolidate the farms together close to home!
interesting way you and your brother film for you tube
Spence!!!! That is a lot of cab corn😂😂
Yas sang spectacular Spencer. Give me your Glorious voice. Awesome vlog guys. I’m so proud of you both. So then the idea of making hay or grass bales for a bit of extra money is still a option?
finally a another videoooo
You guys should buy the grain cart and tractor from Gary
You should add diff locks to your army truck so you don’t get stuck like that in the future.
It would be nice to see repair vids, like the other farmers.
Slip clutches need rebuilt on that head. Find a nice Kinze 640, 650, 840, 850 grain cart for the 8110. Dual auger is much nicer for loading tall wagons compared to a corner auger
Before you buy new rolls, look up B&R welding. They take used rolls and rebuild them to better than new.
Buy a 4640 or 4440 something along them lines

Yeah had an issue with some clips lagging decided to fix it.
Wondering if you saw the Cornstars intercropping video. I found it fascinating
We all get a chance I need a line at the fields
grant put some corn in the back on the truck then you get some more axel pressure on the back
If the neighbor Gary is retiring you should buy his tractor and grain cart.
Spencer you have allot of tree removal to do this winter.
You guys should buy a kinze 840 grain cart for the 8100
If you put a grain cart on the back of that truck you don’t get stuck up hill 😉
Well thats really good watching you doing all the stuff brother. I wonder how many acres you do have for farming either your own or leased ones?
@spencerhilbert

It’s just the 50 I own here. My brother farms 250 acres. (Just started 3 years ago) he has a separate channel showing him starting back in 2020.
I see you're going to be busy with the excavator this winter
Clanking of the rolls means the cluster/triple gear that drives roll 21:15 went out
Try lifting the header to decrease the material it will save you header a lot
You should keep the paddles on the gathering chains across from each other instead of staggered.
❤️
That"s one way to Knock the dust off
Little tack welds on slip clutches
I think grant means he’s going to want a auger wagon, when he said grain cart of Gary s
Can you fix the tailgate on the truck to haul corn? Sorry if someone else has asked the question . I have enjoyed yours and Grants channel thanks foe sharing.

Yeah I could. But I calculated it would only hold 200-250 bushels. Would be super nice for the weight on the drive tires though. I think it would be to much of a hassle dumping. If I had a “private” bin site where I wasn’t in anyone’s way I would try it for fun.

If you just need weight over the wheels you might consider ballasting the truck. For example with some IBCs filled with water. Easy to forklift in and out of the truck as required.
I dont know if it would be worth it but, would it be possible to make a bridge of some sorts at the part shown at 16:42 ? It probably would be expensive but that should be compensated by not having to deal with stuck tractors and such
Looking for grain cart,,, don’t go to dealers,, ask around first, go to auctions, you’ll get better deals😊😊
You guys should buy a grain truck and cart
Put a little dirt in the truck with the excavator, weight will help it with traction
🌽🌽🚜 Bravo! Congrats on your great success! Thanks for the awesome video footage. 🙏May GOD Bless your Noble Efforts.
Exciting! Are you profitable at all?
Does the truck have a hoist? If you could haul corn with it - obviously it would help with traction pulling the wagons. 👍👍
Iowa state plays tonight
This is like farming simulator 22 right spencer
will you and grant build another shed at the new field for all the equipment ?
