#6 Cultivating Corn with John Deere 1025R

Operation25 hp & underJohn Deere 1025R

Overview

This is a family garden vlog, not a tractor review: a homemade S-tine cultivator rig gets bolted to a John Deere 1025R to plow between rows of corn and potatoes. It shows the cultivator in action, a candid debrief on what went wrong (damaged roots, tines set too far back), and casual talk of trying a tiller or disc tillers next. Useful mainly for compact-tractor owners curious about DIY cultivating attachments, not spec seekers.

A family-run channel sharing casual, imperfect real-world experiments on their own property rather than polished expert instruction.
