Thumbs up Mike. The weatherman has no idea when it's going to do anything. I like the GPS on your planter setup. At the end of the day when the operator goes home the technology and years of experience of planting go with him. Can't beat that it's Priceless or PRICE less

Haha thats right Scott. He prides himself on nice straight rows. However on a bigger planter GPS would be nice

Congrats on getting everything planted. We have about 25 acres sitting waiting for it to dry enough to be able to plant. Just about the time it gets there, the next rain storm hits.

Hi Mike What crop are you going to seed in the headland where there has been corn?
@mikep78104 жыл бұрын
We are putting soybeans there. I left it alone so we had a place to spread manure when we were working up the other fields

Do u guys have your markers on a seperate remote? In the last video I noticed he switch markers without lifting the planter.
@mikep78104 жыл бұрын
I've never planted with it but the way I understand it they are on their own remote.

I’m assuming you have a box for seed and fertilizer but what is the 3rd box for?
@mikep78107 ай бұрын
The big boxes in the front are for fertilizer, the middle box is the seed box, and the box on the back is the insecticide box. Now a days not many people use that box which is why you see some planters without them and bigger seed boxes

@@mikep7810 thanks. I’m not a farmer but love farm videos. I just haven’t seen a set up like that.
@mikep78107 ай бұрын
@@BK-fy2xi This planter is a 1979. The older ones were all set up like this. Planters are set up different depending on what you are planting or what your needs are. Some planters don't have fertilizer boxes, some have different types of seed deliveries

From the back box to the front hitch is 13 foot. With it folded up the outside marker blade to other outside marker blade is 14 foot. From marker to marker is just over 13 foot

You guys really need a auger wagon if your going to keep using dry fertilizer, but hopefully you go 6 or 8 row liquid lol

I remember as a kid he had one of the wagons with an auger. I'm not sure why he ever went back to bags.
