Looking at the calendar, I started planting corn on the 10th and finished soybeans on the 22nd. One rain delay in that time. Not too shabby for a part- timer that works 41 miles from home! Now I need to cut the grass at my place and prepare the toolbar for side dressing nitrogen.

I started soybeans after work on Friday. After working the last 2 Saturdays, I had this weekend off. Lost some time Saturday morning to repairs on the planter, but soldiered on. Finished planting at 7:45 PM Sunday night. Felt good! First field of corn I planted is up.

Planter is ready for soybeans. My friend went and picked up the seed. If no stray showers dampen the fields, I will start soybeans tonight. Talking scattered showers tomorrow. Wish it would stay dry. I could have soybeans planted over the weekend!

Imagine if Oliver Wendall Douglas had the Detroitson in Green Acres! 😆

Just relieve yourself out behind the building, bush, tractor, etc. Then you never miss your mark!😁

I purchased milk and gasoline on my way home last night: Gasoline: $4.17/ gallon. Milk: $5.09/ gallon. Wish you dairy guys were receiving more of that figure............

Nice article. Thank you for sharing.

Was it a quality issue causing your fitment issues? Was the radiator totally different than the one out of your Super A? I ask because towards the end of Super A production, they made a Super A1. It had several differences. More like a 140.

Definitely a unique machine. Looks like it is in decent condition. Parts availability will be an issue. 282 parts will not be a problem.

My 856 is fussy about battery connections. When it does not want to crank.: They can look good, but a cleaning will fix the issue and it starts quickly.

Birthday greetings, Ron!

We sprayed the ground going to soybeans first. By the time I finished corn, the 10 day application window was over.

Enjoy your trip! Glad you are able to travel again.

I am NOT waiting! Takes me too long to plant........

I ran the 1206 on the JD 7000 6 row planting corn: Low 4, 41/2 MPH.
