Planting Sweetcorn With John Deere 7000 Conservation Planter

The John Deere Conservation Planter has both plate planter and finger pickup planting. This precision piece of equipment has made farmers successful for generations.
Sweetcorn is an excellent crop to plant with the John Deere 7000 planter and it also plants green beans and peas well too!

These are good planters, I added two aluminum tanks to my planter frame to add ballast. The tanks are 100 gallon each (old sprayer tanks). So when I fill them with water it adds about 1,500 pounds to the unit.

I would like to do the same

@@FreshPickedAcresKS Yes this works really well, when finished planting I pull the plugs and the planter quickly looses all the weight.

Do you spray to help with weed control?

Can it do no till?

[@FreshPickedAcresKS]

It can. Following greenbeans we no till it. But Following a plasticulture field I like to level it out again
