    I am glad i throw down my sulpher and potassium potash in the fertilizer spreader....makes it easier only having to worry about half the fertilizer in the drill

    I used to plant flax which had emergence issues in clay hard pack. We went from 7 in spacing drills to wider spacing 10 12 and 14 in putting more seed in the rows planting a bit heavier rate then the new seedlings would pop the crust worked very well

    @Benjamin_S. Před 25 dny +1

    Ever thought about a DIY plugged line monitoring solution? Taping a cheap microphone on each line at a bend (so that the flowing fert/seed will hit the walls around that location making a loud sound) and connecting them to a couple esp32, audrino or other dev board should work.
    The sound should be easy to differentiate between product flowing and plugged when programming it.

    Mike get some electronic cleaner or something like maf sensor cleaner. Try spraying the crap out of the sensor when it's doing this let it dry and try it again. It may cost a few extra minutes vs just changing it out but may save a ton of money on sensors. Just my 2 cents worth a shot.

    So rain really can wash out seed in the ground? I'm in iowa and we had a uhuge storm come through maybe a few days after, the field in front of my house, got seeded. It flooded my front yard even my leechfield so looking at it I was wondering because there's definitely areas that probably lost 2 inches of soil
