I started farming when I was 12 years old. Several years ago, we purchased a JD 3038e for my wife for Mother's Day. I thought a little disc (disc harrow for you guys that don't farm) and a mold board plow would work just like the bigger ones. I figured it would actually work better than a 6 bottom plow and 22' disc for preparing gardens. The plow coupled with the short little tractor would not plow even. The little discs (up to about 7') are too light to do a decent job of discing. We put all of the concrete blocks that we could fit on her disc and it still would not cut very deep. I wound up buying a tiller for her and it makes a great seed bed for a garden, almost as good as a 22' disc.

Here's us doing garden beds this year! kzread.info/dash/bejne/mK2rp7WpZKuWiLw.html

In using a tiller, If you want the soil more coarse, lift the back plate so it let's the soil out rather than leaving it in the tiller and turned to powder.

good tip.

I'm always glad to see you get any new piece of equipment, use it, explain the differences. Then watch Deb taking over learning how to use them. This time, the most favorite part was listening to you explain about how to open those big bags. They really are a pain to open if you don't know or briefly forget how to do it. The coloquial language had me in stitches. Needed that. You guys have a good evening.

I have disked for many years and I briefly had a tiller, witch I thought of like you do a boat, happy when I bought it, happier when I sold it.

For what we do, the tiller is the best option. But I've spent many hours towing a disc around!

I have both a disc harrow and a tiller. If you have soil like mine here in NC (pretty heavy in the clay department, with plenty of fist-sized rocks), you'll find that a disc harrow tends to get less beat up by the ground than a tiller does. Generally, I'll use the disc harrow on a 'new' piece of land that I'm putting under cultivation to get the first load of rocks and roots and such brought up to the surface. I'll usually follow up with a pass with a rock rake on the back of the tractor to get rid of most of the really big stuff. After the big rocks are out of the way, the tiller can be brought into action if you want a smoother, finer planting bed. If I try to jump right in with the tiller on a 'new' section of land, I'll get a fair number of jams from rocks getting stuck in the tines. Sometimes, the tines themselves will break from getting jammed up with rocks. Take care and God Bless.

@@PineyGroveHomestead Glad to be back and thanks! Ready for all the content you can muster up sir!

I would like tonsee a follow up on which side grew better. Which side had more weeds vs. Amount of peas. Seems like the disk would give weeds and peas, thus reducing the overall yield vs. Tilled and pure peas when done but i do understand that a harder ground surface (tilled side) would make.it harder for the seedlings to break through. So pros and cons like you said... so follow up os a good thing. Cant wait to watch it. LS-TH

This was last year's bean field: kzread.info/dash/bejne/d5-FzLaGpMnZZdY.html

I'm leaning toward no till, disking is less harmful to the earth worms in such that's helping the improve soil.

@PineyGroveHomestead

True but no till requires chemicals for weed control and larger more expensive equipment.

Don’t split worms, actually turn into multiple worms?

Love watching your videos. Learn a lot. I live in Panhandle region too and wanted to know where you buy the cowpeas and other deer plot seed from. Thanks

There is a place on 79 near Vernon called Harris Farm Supply. There is also a place in Chipley on Brickyard/77 that sells farm seed, deer blinds, etc. Also a farm store in Bonifay on 79. Thanks for watching.

Have you tried radishes as a cover crop?

We've used grains and clover and chicory in this field. Daikon's have a deep root, but seems one you plant them, they are in a field like weeds for life!

Did you hit any roots of any size with the tiller? If so, how did the tiller handle it?

@PineyGroveHomestead

We do hit roots and stumps....no damage after about 5 years, but it's not made to do that all day every day! Here's another tiller video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/q3yl1a2oitaoiJc.html

Are you planning on livestock? Pigs, cows, and or chickens, and possibly the use of a manure spreader? I’m just curious, I was tortured with cows and manure spreaders as a child/teenager 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

😂😂 I think I was around 10 years old when my pet albino bull disappeared from the farm after breaking a few ribs of a buddies dad. A month or so later my father asked me how my pet tasted, it was the closest I ever came to being a vegetarian.😂😂 good luck with that one
