how i level my garden

[meniusmichael]

you are the man

[panhead1219]

What an idiot. All that retard did was scrape some loose top soil on top of more loose shit.

when we were little-45 yrs ago,my dad put us kids on a platform he built so he could level our ground,Up on the All American Canal,outside of Yuma,Arizona,we leveled our spot with a old old box springs matras (springs only left)And we all did the same thing,rode it for weight.Worked good too by the way,plus it was fun.

and now u know why i keep horses. great to get around on and can use them for work.

[jihadacadien]

nice way to do it! Man you look like a real farmer too!

[chop98]

The coveralls are what made it all possible. :)

[bctruck]

oh buy the way. was that a pirlin you where dragging?

[ironhead41]

@bctruck 10 inch 12 gauge z girt......still works good after all these years...lol.....

[bctruck]

@ironhead41 it didnt appear to be doing any of the work. there was a two legged mule doing all the work. gonna pm you here in a minute.

[ironhead41]

@bctruck ok....lol....

[ironhead41]

@bctruck just call me

[bctruck]

man i wish i can have a garden .but i cant even keep nieghbors kids out of my yard while im gone to work,never mind deer.guess ill have to keep farming the old way. step one ..get in pickup.

step two..go to walmart.

step three..buy veggies.

step four..return home and eat veggies.

its complicated i know but its the only way i can get veggies where i live.this working 3 weeks on and 3 weeks off is great except while im gone there would be no one to tend the garden cept critters.

I'm still partial to the straight rake upside down, but I am mostly doing short rows. Good vid as always.

[Maynardsat]

Great way to do it. Now I need to find a large beam to do mine, and maybe someone else to pull it.

[omegahpla]

Now I just feel stupid, it's a lot of work making my kids rake the garden. (it really is, lol) I could just be dragging around a big chunk off a sky scraper instead.

[VivianRinSC]

I thought I was working but after seeing this, I was lounging. lol. I'll stick to my raised beds for now. Work my way up this later, much later. :)

[Hybrid5226]

Ironhead how big is your garden area?

we been setting poles all day to keep the dogs out of the area that was dug up in the front yard . Its not that big but I have more rocks then I know what to do with now ..

Peace

When I was gardening in Alaska I used to drag a heavy 4'x8"x1"chunk of angle iron, with a 4'x10' chunk of chainlink fencing hooked onto it behind my tiller (BCS walk-behind tractor). Worked great for grading & raking out the clods in one pass. I also loaned out the drag to folks putting in lawns.

Here in the Lower 48 I haven't needed that setup.

[hunt1803]

Down here I don't garden in one huge area, I use several small gardens so that I can get my separation of plantings for saving different types of same-species heirloom seeds...

[stealinator]

+1 on the chainlink fence, they use them on baseball diamonds

[ironhead41]

@stealinator i have used chain link in the past......a z girt is a one pass....like a scrape blade......chainlink is a several passer.....

[BUBBAEFFECTx6]

LOL hay have you heard of mules....j/k

[ironhead41]

@BUBBAEFFECTx6 i am the mule...lol

[BUBBAEFFECTx6]

@ironhead41 lol

[omegahpla]

@ironhead41 I was just thinkin before I read that, you sure make a good mule : )

[Yankeeprepper]

I hope you are drinking while you are doing that. I would be very disappointed otherwise.

[ironhead41]

@Yankeeprepper i am a professional drinker.....i would never waste my drinking time working....lol...

[tnjeffofalltrades]

@ironhead41 - I'm still in the minor leagues. I find it difficult to juggle work and beer. You make it look soooo easy!

[bigjohn20081983]

hey if it works and its not broke why fix it use what works for you we built one kinda like that only added some chainlink fence for the middleschool to use on the baseball field they pull it with a utv unless they make the kids pull it for punishment

[TheRiflemanChannel]

Chain link fence works good too. lol
