Was raised on the farm made hay a lot but never in later parts of the year where drying was an issue. Enjoy your content. Had never heard of a tetter or seen one in use. But the summer before I left for the Marine Corp 1972. Made 30,000 bails of hay. I loaded it all by hand in those days. Used to always give my buddies hell because I would load 2000 bails in a day then ride back helping get the rest in the hay mows From Ohio was mostly old bank barns backing the wagons up a hill and hand unloading because no place for an elevator. Like how your set up for very little hand work. Great content 👍

You have a lot of hay on the ground and it looks like an excellent yield for so late in the year. But the weather always makes putting up hay a challenge. Anxious to see how you make out with it. Here in northern Iowa it has really been wet and is slowing the soybean and corn harvest. You take care!

I'm surprised it takes that long to get it dry considering you're in north Texas. I'm in Colorado and at most this year I let the hay sit out in the field a full day and them I'm out baling it. I know this time of year takes a little longer to get it to dry out though.

This might sound like a stupid question but I'll ask anyway. Where I'm at you can cut the hay a little higher to keep it off the wet ground and let the air get to it more. Can, or do you ever do that with yours or does your hay lay pretty flat anyway ? I just thought I'd ask. Thanks as always for sharing😊🖐🏻‼️👍👍👍

Hi this is Erik from WTFarmGirl channel. We have been looking at the Kuhn 10 bale accumulator what are your thoughts? I see you use a different style.

I had a buddy who used that system and couldn't sell it fast enough. Any turning while baling was a mess and if you break a bale and it makes it up he shute it was very time consuming getting it going again. The drag systems are so much better because they are easy to clean out and don't bend or twist the bale. Some people say dragging bales on the ground does damage but I can assure you it doesn't

You can virtually bale within a few hours of cutting (round bale) unless grass is rain wet and then just wrap them ,then they can stay outside , smells sweet like tobacco once it's fermented , better than loosing your crop in a bad year , im sure people would buy it

From the camera angle it seemed after going over the cut grass the hay was still somewhat concentrated in the 'cut area'. Changing directions to an angle will thin the hay down as it will be thrown into the area of the field that has no hay over the bare spots....maybe give you a 10-15% more area to thin the cutting, equaling faster cure time.
