In this video we explain why we switched from a Land Pride 3P606NT to a Genesis 5 No Till Drill for Food Plot planting

I plant food plots as a side business, usually 100+ acres a year. I plant soybeans in the spring, sunflowers for dove fields, and an assortment of different fall/winter plots for my customers. I’ve owned a Land Pride 3p606nt for the past 3 years or so and could not be happier with my results, my customers all feel the same. I have the less aggressive coulters on my drill, not the turbo coulters, and they cut straight through the duff that’s left on top each season. I don’t know how I could get better results than what I have. To each their own, but my results have been great across sandy, loam and clay soils.

The type of front coulters are an option on land pride/great plains drills. You can get straight coulters as well so it's odd that you are treating the wavy coulters as a land pride attribute. The wavy ones are intended to create a little tillage and a better seedbed so it makes sense to not want them in light soils.

Thanks for this informative video. Very helpful. I’ve never used a Land Pride drill but I’ve had a Genesis 5 for 6 years and I love the thing. I took the coulters off and could not tell any difference in germination rates and hardly ever see the soil turned over. I like to plant green into lots of biomass. I’m going to look into getting the small seed box added to it. Sometimes I feel like my clover and brassicas might get buried too deep.

Sandy soil I’m surprise you use the extra cutters. I’m very interested in your experience with the small seedbox

Hey I’ve been working quite a bit with the Great Plains 606 and I was wondering if you were aware that they offer other coulters that are very similar to that on the genesis that you can run on the 606? Also I’m from se kansas where we do have more clayey soils and we actually just switch from the straight coulters to the fluted coulters because we were having some trouble getting good depth/ placement when planting into thick thatch. Great video thank you for your thoughts!

What's the smallest food plot that you can plant with a drill? Is a ¾ acre plot large enough to calibrate and plant with a Genesis?

Surprised you need Coulters at all.

Wouldn't it have been possible to change to straight coulters?

Want to make me a great deal on that Land Pride drill you have just collecting dust now? I mean, that thing takes up a lot of space.....

Couldn't you have just changed out the wavey coulters for straight on the Land ride?

I would love to get a genesis 3 but I don’t think my 1720 can handle the weight.

For the amount an average food plotter uses one just rent one from your local county ag. Save money and come out way ahead.

Used drills right now of reputable brands are worth more than they sold for new a few years ago so no notable value lost. When you own you can use it whenever it fits your schedule rather than whenever/if it’s available from the SWCD and for however long/short you need it for. When you own it you know if it’s in working order. Also, the drill in this video can be used with compact tractors that are not big enough for many of the 7’+ drills available from SWCDs.

Well you could of just put different coulters on or use none at all in sandy soil

Sandy soil a regular drill acts like a notill without openers…
