If it has a water pump (not thermosiphon) bring it up to operating temperature (top hose should be hot to the touch, bottom hose warm to the touch, if temp gauge don't work), and that's when the system itself should begin do the mixing. So let it run a good 15 to 20 minutes longer after that. Shut off and let it cool completely back down, and check it with a antifreeze strength tester that you can buy at pretty much any auto- parts store. And hopefully you added enough straight antifreeze to make it good. Note - if its a thermosiphon system, you are going to have to run it much much longer. And perhaps just using the tractor several times, before you can get an accurate check of the antifreeze strength. And also, pay close attention to the antifreeze your dumping in. You can buy both straight, and already mixed with water. Most places have them side by side on the shelves at the stores. In jugs that almost look the same.
