Tedding hay and spraying grain pictures

Bruce from Can. · Jun 21, 2014

With all the talk on here of late about teddies hay, while I was out doing just that today, I took a few pics. This should speed the drying time up by two days. The Co-op came by and sprayed my grain too, so I caught that as we'll. Bruce

Bruce,

Thanks for the pictures. Very interesting.

Winter wheat and barley are alredy being combined here in Middle Tennessee. I only grow hay so I don't have any personal experience with the small grains around here, but it looks like they have done well this year.

Wish I could do something with the hay. I knocked some down Thursday,rained yesterday,mostly cloudy and humid today. Chance of rain tomorrow,Monday and Tuesday. Yippie.
I really don't remember a year that I didn't have at least SOME hay baled by this date. Even last year,I put up hay for a week before I went back and planted silage corn.

CAn't you open up the mower so your hay is NOT in a windrow? I do that with my 990 MoCo and the hay lies flat almost the full 9 feet. Then rake and bale the same day.

Mr. Bruce from Canada,
Are you the one that bought the Model H 4/4 Allis Chalmers tractor at the Jasper Gayhart auction today?
Some one from Ontario Canada bought it over the telephone.

The rason for the tedder is the ground dries when its in a windrow so you tedd after the ground dries soe so it will dry faster hay will cure a day faster.Notuncommon to makeit aday after mowing under ideal condidions.

How do you like the 3 pt tedder?

Bruce from Can. · Jun 21, 2014

No Gord,I can't change the windrow like you can with your 9 foot moco. I am using a 12 foot John Deere swather , with a 4 foot crimper. Bruce

Must have been some other lucky fella from Ontario, as it was not I. After I tedded out this hay, the wife and I went to a old tractor show. Bruce

The rake/ tedder works very well for me. I have had it now over 15 years. Bruce
