Potato planting season is officially underway here on the farm! 🚜🥔
But before we can really get rolling, every single planter has to be calibrated perfectly. Today we’re out in the field checking seed depth, seed spacing, and row spacing on all three potato planters to make sure every potato goes exactly where it needs to.
It might sound simple, but getting the spacing wrong by even a little can mean thousands of pounds of lost yield—or running out of seed before the last field is planted.
In this video you’ll see:
✅ Calibrating all 3 potato planters
✅ Checking seed depth by hand
✅ Measuring potato spacing with a tape measure
✅ Fine-tuning planter settings
✅ Starting irrigation water on our wheat pivots
✅ Behind-the-scenes prep before potato planting officially begins
For our farm, planting potatoes is one of the most important times of the year, and every detail matters. From opening headgates and checking pivots to digging up seed pieces and measuring every inch, today is all about making sure we start the season right.
After months of preparation… potato season is finally here.
Thanks for following along with Rocky Mountain Farmer!
