Wheat Field on Fire in Kansas

[engine12f]

i wonder how many calls county got for feild fires that day

[GardenOfImagination]

@engine12f LOL! We have to have burn permits and call it in before there is a burn. During the summer we see over 100 fields on fire. No big deal.

[engine12f]

@GardenOfImagination just because they get called in as a controlled burn doesnt mean people call 911

i thought your channel was for tutorials not for fires

[ellichan]

I remember seeing stuff like this when I lived in Idaho :P.

[GetsuakaKato]

All of Kansas is on fire. All of Kansas is still on fire!

[smokinf150]

@GetsuakaKato at least we know how to control it unlike califorina

Actually burning of the stubble is not all a good thing yes it does return nutrients to the soil but if you dont live in an area that recieves that much moisture it will dry out the soil to much and hurt your next crop that is going to be planted and it also decreases the organic matter going into the soil.

Ahhh... reminds me of growing up in central Nebraska.... burning off the fields was always fun. Huge fire tornadoes.

[surfergal099]

y do they burn there farms??

[GardenOfImagination]

Boredom.

Just kidding. It's just wheat stubble they are burning to return nutrients to the soil and prepare it for replanting.

I live in Kansas and i love Going to the country at night and watch the fires it almost like the 4th of July

[GardenOfImagination]

The harvest moon is my favorite Kansas scene... when there's a full moon and it's completely orange. LOVE it!

[AGfan101]

[AGfan101]

Yah on the west side of Kansas is mostly Fealds and crops

[GentlemanBunny]

Very interesting! Does the smell of smoke get into your clothes at all? Do you have to keep all the doors and windows shut so the smell of smoke won't get in? :)

[GardenOfImagination]

No... not in our clothes. But you can smell it when you go outside.

[DreamControl]

wow, I'm glad I read the explanation as I was scared for you before reading the info!

I didn't even know they did this. Amazing how it can be controlled.

[GardenOfImagination]

They control the borders by tilling the edges before the burn. The fire doesn't cross the dirt.

[DreamControl]

ah, clever. Ok, less scared now!

[mydisease7]

hahahaha the guy at 2:00 just walks away from the fire i know it's pretty common in Kansas but can't you put it out. seems dangerous

[GardenOfImagination]

The guy is dragging something on fire behind him to make the field burn. It's not too dangerous.

[sakuralioness]

ooo get out the marshmellow lol

[GardenOfImagination]

LOLOL!!!!! Time for s'mores. Except you realize those flames were 30 feet tall! We would be a bunch of roasted crafters.
