How you graded and finished around the pond looks fantastic. I have throughly enjoyed and learned a lot from this series. Thanks Tim

TTWT Videos are always good, but they are even better when the Cat's get involved!!!

Let’s do it!

Your pond is looking beautiful, Tim. Nice work. It's always a good day when you're on a Ventrac.

There going to resoding my back yard today , the grass company dropped of 12 pallets of grass yesterday and I’m sure they will have nine guys spreading the side today. This all happened because the building at the end of my condos had a bad water pipe and they tore it up so now we get new grass only been waiting six months for this to happen.

Great video love the drone footage for sure you did a excellent job on the final grade looks great tractor on tim keep the video's rolling 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Looks great Tim (and folks)!👏

Enjoy the drone footage it was relaxing to me. Great Job!

It really looks good guys!

Nice job guys the pond project is almost complete.

You are rolling along. Always fun to watch you work ;-) Blessings.

Always have and will continue to enjoy you guys. Love the format, video, commentary, and scriptures. Keep it up!!!!!!

Wow great progress! Can't wait to see this in person soon!

Looking great around the pond. Nice view from the drone!

around Pond with Compact Tractors great working ❤❤❤❤

Love the power rake and I love that grass seeder.

Nothing beats the purring sound of the Ventrac in the morning. Only downside is it makes me drowsy trying to run tons of Windows updates on servers as its MS update day. I'd rather be tractoring. Actually looking like a nice 65F day so I'm taking off early to get some different seat time outside. Thanks for the motivation ;)

Great video as always! I wish I could say I was to the point of planting grass on my pond project. I think I may end up working the pond dirt I dug out last year most of this spring and summer, just to get it all spread and graded to my satisfaction. Seed has gotten so expansive, I hate to rush into planting. If need be I may wait and plant grass seed next spring.

I enjoy all your videos and drone video. I have a johnny because of your great in depth videos, I love my 2032r. Thanks for all you do my freind.

Tim this is EXACTLY what I would have done. I do a lot of commercial landscaping/seedbed prep. You spread the rich compost then put the topsoil on top then tilled it all in. Also those smaller clods will let the seeds fall down between and have a better chance of surviving. Seems like with my experience when the seed bed is perfect fluffy powder the seeds get washed away easier.

I tilled my parents garden a couple weeks ago with the 3046R for the first time, instead of the 5320, and man the hydrostat is nice for that, along with the thinner width! The 3046R had zero power issues, of course! I like the drone footage, as long as you're talking through it. I can't hardly watch/listen to the Morgans because half of it is just no talking with montages, and I mostly listen to YT while I work at the computer, so it's just mostly listening to freeware music over there.

That looks great, you all should be proud.

Good job Tim. Some of your Grass will most likely melt or wilt in the summer heat. Some of it will come back in fall with cooler weather but I would also plan on over seeding again this fall. In my area Winning colors seems to do well for a turf type tall fescue its expensive but has a real nice color and texture to it. I like he seeder you use seems to do a good job!

Nice job on the pond and grading. Cat has to learn the hard way😅

Well the lawnmower did a great job.😎

christy you definitely fly a drone lot better than i do , good for you

Have you ever used ventracs soil conditioner, cultivater, I haven’t but any videos I’ve seen on it look like it prepares the soil for seeding quite amazingly

It is amazing how cheap and crappy they make attachments. I don't see how scattering the seed on top and running cultipacker wheels over it gives a very consistent and adjustable depth. I have always used the double run instead of the fluted feed. It seems to deliver a much more consistent seed rate.

Always great content meow

We run the woods 7 foot grain drill and it’s very heavy. With a full rack of weights it still makes the tractors front end light. The seed to contact is very good with it. It’s different than the one you have ours has notched adjustable disk gangs in the front then an aerator and roller.

Have you ever used a aeraseeder? Really like to see one behind a 1025.

Great job. I’m not a drone fan, when the drone is racing around. Your footage is alright. Slow enough so I don’t get motion sickness. 👍🏻

You could weld some tractor weight brackets on the seeder and work on your fitness when you have to lift it.

I know the amount of money & time to set up the drone, but it's so worth it to get the perspective of the whole project!

The other firefighters were pumping from the holding area (think pool) and trainees were practicing with different size hoses shooting at items for aim & with different spay patterns.

Tim, have you ever considered a stone burier instead of a standard tiller? The fact that the stone burier buriers debris under a layer of "clean' soil way be beneficial for the types of work you often do. I am considering a stone burier and would love to get your thoughts and MAYBE even a video!
