Make that 42hrs straight!! 😳🥴

so we just popped over at the farm our field where we're going is basically right here near the farm um i just had to run over real quick we're getting a chemical delivered um so they're going to be this would be one of one of i don't know maybe six trucks so this these are expensive days when they start showing up with trucks like that yep don't like it don't like it at all i just gotta coordinate some sprayers here but i can do that for my tractor cab all right we're actually gonna load up here i open that lid let's go to fill here there we go there by doing that i can run this remote we're gonna grab one of these inoculant bags and we're gonna stick it in we don't have very much left in there so [Music] i like to press every button but the right one [Music] and then out a bit and then down and then out and down maybe we should take the outside eh probably smart to take the outside one okay perfect all right i only have it on three this one was a little too difficult to get to at this time so three will hold it oh okay here we go here we go here we go so these bags uh are 800 pounds okay you can do it from down here too normally i'm always right there but i'm just doing this so that way you guys can have a little better view keep going up with it [Music] right there okay then there's another one there's two here i'll try this one right there's last little one here come on there it is there she goes then you can just keep lifting up on it there it is that's it guys shake it up really good mash up all these lumps get them to go in there okay i'll come back down here so you guys can get a little better view oh see if i can do this together here there we go there goes our truck that's one of many unfortunately oh unfortunately just gonna go uh take that bag off and we've loaded a bag of inoculant just like that okay guys you guys get the idea and then you just close it up right wrinkles i'm just about done buddy there we go just like that what do you think buddy oh probably like seven times you know it's not 13 so but no i guess i should probably you got all that chemical unloaded okay yeah i did that stuff is heavy i bet it is hey what accidentally threw your pump oh didn't know it was a pump or what all right we're out of here um something is very close to our farm yard um it's actually only about 15 kilometers out but i can't wait for it i got to get seating that's how it is that's life it's something that we've been waiting on for a while so uh yeah i'm pretty excited about that so i'm just gonna leave that there and uh well hopefully i can show you hopefully i can show you real soon yep i just got the text message that uh it just arrived at the yard just as we arrived to this field missed it by that much that much you guys nope it's not the fan no it's two the fan do dragon guess it's a mystery i don't know about you guys but uh sometimes it's 3 30 starting to get a little tired you know haven't slept since it's 3 30 on monday i haven't slept since saturday or something we'll see how uh see how i do here i'm not 18 anymore but sometimes i feel it so we're well seating guys so last year i went this way i actually went uh north and south seeing the derm except for some slews i had to go around and then uh this year we're going east and west i'm going across them so this particular field is a quarter which means it's only 160 acres so anytime i come into a square field like that a quarter or even a section which is four quarters 640 acres um i always try and go across the drill ridges because you guys know that i have a thing against angling i have angled i will angle if i absolutely have to but i am far too ocd to angle i like to go straight passes and i just keep switching it up well last year this is 168 because remember last year we only seeded 110 of it because there was just all these slews and i just went around one over here too um everywhere you looked there's a great big slough like that and they're all over this year they're completely dry like completely dry there isn't water anywhere i don't think anyone's gonna get stuck actually that's not true i have to do an update on that for you guys i won't do it right now but there is an update coming but anyways we're very dry mike should you even be singing like should you even be seen in the dry conditions yeah you have to you have to see um at least we do anyway we have to see uh if you want to have any type of insurance all insurance pretty much would only cover you if you see they're not going to cover you for nothing if you don't see so uh mike will insurance actually cover a loss of no prop absolutely not no but it would sure help um so anyways we're quite dry but that's this country we're dry eight years out of ten maybe not quite this dry but we are dry eight actually so there's two times in the um course of the day where i find it's the hardest to stay awake one is in the morning when the sun is just coming up and two is supper time the sun is coming down not no not sunset right about here sup time sun beaming in on you i'm just like i'm just like this i'm like okay just two minutes i just have a two minute nap just two but seriously though um if you get tired we actually we actually encourage our guys to actually stop the tractor and uh put your seat back and have a 15 20 min nap because for myself if i have a 15-20 minute nap i'm like a changed person i feel 100 better and i'm ready to rock and roll maybe if maybe not if you you know if you haven't accepted i don't know how many hours now well it's six o'clock so it has now been uh 36 hours i've been up for 36 hours as of literally right now so um yeah so if you haven't set the 36 hours then maybe a 20 minute nap won't really do it maybe it just make you more tired but on a normal day a 20 minute nap for me if i had a 20 minute nap during say two o'clock i don't even know if i could sleep by 10 pm i grabbed my broom it said that i was empty and i'm like oh that seems too early like my alarms went off and i'm like holy crap i must be seeding too heavy and i thought i could still see something in my camera so i opened it you look at that obviously we put it into wet still chunky and uh this actually flows into here but it's not flowing and this here flex tank it's supposed to flow into here so i brought my broom up we're gonna have to do some poking here i gotta climb down in this tank right now we're inside the tank here and we gotta do some poking here [Music] [Music] okay [Music] come on get flowing here there it goes baby come on get flowing so we gotta go do that with the next one so i guess uh get out of this tank it's still not running down is it we're gonna have to poke it on the top you know you put it in too wet when mike what do you mean you put it in wet a sea tree it obviously went in wet okay i'm gonna go down and uh poke this one okay guys so we're in this tank now we're gonna have to so we want this pumpkin to flow ouch that'll get your arms stuck in here come on come on [Music] there it goes maybe that's what i like to see okay let's climb up ah look at this oh good job mike good job buddy get down there come on i do not have enough sleep for that kind of patience no seriously though [Music] this one's trying to go hopefully when we start seeding because we're going across these drill ridges going this way maybe to kind of keep breaking itself loose so here's hoping it seems to be working see the camera in there sorry but we're going across the drill ridges so it's pretty rough um you can see the flow so i think it's flowing now you know what i really like is there's hardly any disturbance you can still see the rows from last year but yet i've actually seated them this way you can see where i drove out there very little disturbance see if i can zoom in on this i love that i'm a low disturbance kind of guy okay guys it is now basically 10 p.m four minutes two that means i've been going for 40 hours straight i think we're probably gonna keep going here i gotta go get some seed i'm empty you know i'm actually feeling pretty good i was thinking about trying to do another all-nighter i've only done that once before uh but then if you're gonna do another all-nighter you there's absolutely no sense to do another online unless you can do the next day as well otherwise what's the point if you're gonna do an all-nighter and then you're just gonna go to bed during the afternoon unless you've got somebody shifting you off that is and that's what we don't because we don't have that many more people so um so anyways i think we're gonna keep going maybe for another hour or two and then i'll probably go home make a little bit of supper do some laundry uh shower and then uh go to bed and then wake up at five and do all this over again um you know this isn't just me like this is a farmer thing like farmers we're starting to push hard we're starting to push the banker hours out of the way i guess and uh i'm not gonna lie to you though because when uh when i start getting a little bit more tired like obviously 40 hours my desire to uh do youtube videos uh dramatically drops off i'm not gonna lie and uh it's just really not there i just don't really feel like doing it i'm just like i just wanna kind of feel my own little bubble now and just start making animal noises and this is how the seeding crazies happen you guys this is a real thing this is how the seedy crazies happen go down like some of my very first videos i haven't seen crazy video and this isn't just a mike mitchell thing this is like a farmer thing we all go through the seating crazes when you start pushing in a lot of hours actually i gotta go down here one sec yeah so anyways sorry about that we gotta get some fuel here and get some depth and then i got to get some seed i am right empties so we're doing about 600 acres to a load so you know a long ways anyways i really appreciate you guys following me around i definitely feel a little bit more mellowed right now i don't think our crew is getting too tired yet because the signs of our crew getting tired is they literally start calling out animal noises on the radio and then you have to try to identify it i'm sure some of you guys know exactly what i'm talking about i don't know if it's hilarious or hilariously terrifying all at the same time she's just following me we're trying to find a good spot to load all right guys i'm not gonna take up your time i'm just gonna keep doing my thing here we're gonna keep chugging you guys stay awesome stay cool and don't let those bed bugs bite kids are gonna bite you i hope they don't but get cream i don't even know
