Trent

@Byron20670550 9’ wide. Upgraded to a heavier gearbox and slip clutch. So I’d just be sure to build it heavy. It tends to bounce a bit when running, maybe could spin it a little slower to help. Works well for the amount we use it

@thilderman8 Looking to build one as well, anything you’d change and what’s your width?

Homemade compost turner seems to be working pretty good. Just added the water feature.

@AllamFarmer 1lbN /gal

@AllamFarmer We auger 13mt of urea into 10,000gal water over an hour and circulate for an extra hour with 3” pump. Odd prill left but no issues. Helps to start with warm water but not necessary. Had 5000gal store overwinter too no issue

Here’s a great article that addresses the wide range of what sustainability could mean in agriculture.

Interesting piece of Canadian farming history that I wasn’t aware of

@wonderingwunder Not yet, making a lot of assumptions at this point based upon process. Will when we have more time

@thilderman8 O interesting, are you looking at final product with a microscope to see what’s in finished product?

Prototype #1 of our compost tea brewer. Making 2000 gallons a day to put down in furrow. Crude but seems effective to try to prove concept

@wonderingwunder Sump pump in tank with hose going up

@thilderman8 What are using to add oxygen?

This is an interesting article.

Our perennial cow chow mix is looking pretty good. Monster turnips!

Had an interesting conversation about Safflower today. Any followers growing safflower? Any of you used to grow it? When was the last time you grew it? Why did you stop? @thilderman8

@colincameron49 @AggiesTwice That’ll be the plan if we go larger scale with it. Will set up a boiler system. However btu demand is pretty large so may get expensive fast.

@AggiesTwice @thilderman8 Does anyone warm their water beforehand with heaters or anything? Water gets pretty cold as soon as you add urea to it

First time melting urea. Seems to be working pretty good. Excited about the possibilities

@farmercurtis1 Mixing this with herbicide and spraying on. Won’t burn the leaves like UAN.

@thilderman8 Why not use 28-0-0 is it to use left over fert?

@farmerBuhler @landon707 Have you tested how long it will stay in solution for?

@landon707 @farmerBuhler Dissolved 1 T in 1000 gal to get 100 ac at 10lbs N if math is right. Want to try doubling concentration and then cutting with water when spraying.

@farmerBuhler @thilderman8 What was the ratio you used?
