What did you do with your Red tractor today?

[lilabner]

Swapped cultivator off for planter and put in last planting of sweet corn

[lilabner]

And it’s upside down 

[lilabner]

And back to weed control mode

Are those for harvesting, left for the birds, or decorating?

I’m glad to see that you got it right side up. 😆 I have a couple planters and cultivators like yours but have never used them.

[MT Matt]

Cut orchard grass/alfalfa. Have the mainline and one hand line running on what was cut earlier this week.

Just put out a roll of hay with 5230 

found out 4th gear does not work in reverse . Might not suppssed to .

[billonthefarm]

Spraying beans today.

[SONNY]

mowed waterways with the 2444 industrial. Spot sprayed with the cub.

It's ready to roll. Everything works as it should, except the tach, I might have forgot to disconnect it before I rolled the front away 🤔

They both almost look to be the same color 

[farmallcubkid]

Tilled a little bit with the 1456. It acts like  nothing's there!

[IHandJDman]

Finished sidedressing corn with the good 1086.  I got the other 1086 stuck and switched to the good one. The sidedress bar was a surplus one from the co-op. I bought it and it's rate chart is not correct.  Trial and error, I guess.

They are fun brings back memories of childhood with my grandpa 

normally just used for sweet corn but I planted my wife’s sunflowers this year and it worked quite well 

need to find another c - 200 so I don’t have to swap back and forth the same day, it was really rough when I cut hay with it also

Drove the 856 to the Iowa Speedway in preparation for the WHO tractor ride that kicks off tomorrow.

[Wes806]

Hooked the bush hog up to the 756 tonight. Guess my nephew is going to try his hand at running it. He knows the tractor just hasn't ran the bush hog. Gave him a choice of running it or mowing. Guess I lost the fun of bush hogging .

Boy you are a glutten for punishment, driving your tractor to the tractor ride. 😄

To each their own...the world would be pretty boring if we all liked the same things.  But I went on a 1 day local tractor ride once.  To quote an old local guy, "I have 2 words for that....boar ring."  I love playing with my old iron in the field, but don't have much desire to drive up and down the road.😉

Drove the 856 around the track at the Iowa Speedway today. How many can say they have done something like that? Video to come.

[Reichow7120]

Still doing hay.

That would be pretty cool. Didn’t need duals to keep from sliding down the banked corners??😂

[billonthefarm]

Back and forth…..

They had obstacles parked to keep us off the banked parts of the track but not everywhere. It was kind of fun.
