Over the weekend I did the ‘first pass’ to create a new SHTF “contingency garden,” but I only ran the rotary plow in one direction (E-W) which left the garden plot a little bumpy (wavey) when traversed the other direction (N-S).
So, I decided to do a second pass yesterday, using the subsoiler/ripper to make N-S oriented rips spaced about 18″ apart. Then tilled it again (N-S). And finally ran the drag harrow over it in both directions.
While running the tiller and filming it with the Mavic Pro drone, the drone’s battery dropped to a critical threshold so the drone automatically aborted the circular orbit it was flying and envoked its return-to-home (RTH) feature to go land where it took off from and shut down. However, as you’ll see below, the poor drone had to fight with attacking bees all the way back “home.” 😉
