Finally got to planting.

jon f mn · May 12, 2016

Been raining almost steady for 3 weeks. Not enough to amount to anything, just enough to keep it damp. Got 1/4" yesterday and the same day before. Just got a couple sprinkles so far today. Got the peas/barley for forage and as cover for alfalfa done. Should get the corn in this weekend. The video is of the 2394 that I overhauled the engine in a couple years back, every time I run it a day and it doesn't fall apart I'm pleasantly surprised. Lol.

Plowing

Every time I get to the point of thinking I can roll "tomorrow afternoon",it rains again. I stopped at the fertilizer plant this morning and told them to bring a load out tomorrow,I might be able to go by Saturday afternoon. This afternoon,another line of showers rolled through.

Last summer was wet and cool here, my alfalfa partially winter killed, got late hard frost kill, and then came up with weeds.

A lot of fields around here look the same.

I would have just burned it off last fall and planted corn if I new.

Hey Jon,what do you think of this? The new used grill for the 2-105 got here from Wisconsin yesterday.

David Snipes · May 12, 2016

I've always liked that silver and black White tractor paint scheme.

I got in my best drained field Tues and it's rained since. Gonna be another week now to try again.

(quoted from post at 17:02:00 05/12/16) Hey Jon,what do you think of this? The new used grill for the 2-105 got here from Wisconsin yesterday.

Are those cabs fairly quiet and tight?

I've always loved the looks of those beasts.

We did not get a drop of rain up here. The big farms by Falmouth have had the ground worked up for a while and Mon they 10 NH tractors hauling the tri axle spreaders working there way north. Behind them they had several disking up the fields after the manure and the planters were behind them. They had a NH and Case international tractors.. The big 4 wheel drive ones with dual all the way around

Looks good! Is that 2-105 the same tractor as the 2-85 but with a turbo? The 85 is a nice tractor except the hydraulic and 3pt levers should be longer. Sure drives nice and turns short for planting.

I always like the look of those White tractors . Near all the corn around me is in , and soy planting has started. We could really use some of that rain , things here are very dry.

4520BW · May 12, 2016

Least someone is planting! Not been able to get in field since April 21. Pouring here now!

rrlund · May 13, 2016

Ya,the turbo's the only difference. They have an Oliver 1855 transmission and rear end.

rrlund · May 13, 2016

There hasn't been a rain that's missed me yet. Wait until July and August and see if that happens.

rrlund · May 13, 2016

They had the lowest decibel level of any cab at the time. My Series 3 2-135 seems to be a little quieter than the early 2-105,but some of the window molding on the 105 is separated just a little and letting in some noise.

That field looks really nice. Nice seed bed.

WI Dan · May 13, 2016

Are those both CHROME noses? Randy's looks like a gloss black, Jon's appears to be chrome.

rrlund · May 13, 2016

Mine's chrome. It's just so shinny that it looks black because it's sitting inside.

WI Dan · May 13, 2016

Ah, I get it now.
Glad to hear Wisconsin came through for the grill!

Finally got to planting.
