A lot of guys have sprayed, top dressed wheat, worked plenty of ground and maybe put some beans in the ground this past week. A lot are slowing down due to the colder wetter forecast for today and this weekend, but so far this morning it looks like the amount of rain is less and less by the hour. The weather this week created a perfect few days for a lot of our customers to test drive their new to them products. Planter installs, tillage tools, and side dress rigs were ran this week just to test things out and make sure they were ready for when the big push arrived. This week we did several more Salford tillage demos and more tillage startups of new cultivators and VT tools.
Be sure to tune into our YouTube Channel. Have a great weekend, and feel free to call 419-953-8500.

Sam Hoagland, Fabricating Metal Like It's Playdough
In this episode, we sit down with Cody, Hunter, Adam, and Sam Hoagland. Sam is the newest guest on the Talking Shed. Sam is a fabricator in our shop helping our ideas come to life to assist with projects we have going on. Sam has an extensive background in welding and fabrication, and it is amazing what he can do with metal. Currently Sam is working on making fixtures to build our Y Drop toolbars in-house so that is a big step for us.
The New S2S Row Unit Design
Over the years, we have worked with a lot of guys who want to seed cover crops as early as possible to get maximum growth. They have flown them on in August, seeded right after harvest, sprinkled some on with the sidedress applicator. None of these tactics worked extremely well. Some were planted too late. Others the seed just laid on top of the ground. So we designed the S2S (Seed to Soil) System. It is designed to run in between corn rows around side dress time to lightly till or break the crust and pack the seeds into the soil to almost guarantee germination. In the picture below, you will see results of covers seeded June of 2022. And the video was just taken this week. Enjoy.
