Plenty of weight to get it in the ground, good heavy runs with 15 inch offset opener blades. Worst thing about it is the back of the opener blades are very wide which throws alot of dirt out of seed trench but it is good in a way as it does till the row and does not create side wall compaction. If you put a chain harrow on behind it you can get good stands. Seeding mechanism is not the standard fluted cup that most drills have but does about the same with beans, thick in some areas and thin in others. I would say they are a well built drill.

If you have ground that generally is hard clay/gumbo-they are about the only no till that works. John Deeres no til was/is basically a UFT clone. [Reply]  [No Email]
