When you used a machine like the Hoss Tools (www.hosstools.com) Garden Seeder to plant seed, you have to use the correct seed disc, or seed plate.
The seed disc has holes in it so that only 1 seed is planted at a time, and is planted at the right spacing from one to another.
Selecting the wrong plate means that that seeder could drop too many seeds at a time or none at all.
This process takes a few moments now, but in the future you will know which plate is the best one for your seed and you should never have to go through it again.

We've owned our homestead for less than 2 weeks, found a pile of seed plates in the outbuilding, thought to self, "gee, I need to figure these out one day", so your video was good timing. I appreciate how you're always clear, concise, and easy to understand. Thanks!

suggestion for home saved seeds make a seed size sorting plate by using security door screen metal these screen are punched metal round holes of a exact size 1/8th 3/16ths for example make a 3 screen sorter one slightly over sized to screen out chaff or stones examples then the right sized to match the seed plate then a undersized screen run the collection of saved seeds through the over sized screen take out the oversized stuff then screen the remaining in the middle sized plate that matches The seed plate or wheel you have selected then screen it through the undersized screen the undersized seed is not bad just needs a different sized drop plate that should save you from skipped paintings or too many in one seed hole

Looking at this seeder myself. How did it do with your non-pelleted carrot seeds. That is my number one concern with getting a seeder, one that can plant non-pelleted carrots.

I never tried the non-pelleted with this tool. They manufacturer makes a big deal about ensuring that you stay with pelletized.
