Hey all,
Gonna get my planters Saturday. If you didn't read my earlier posts, I'm buying a pair of 56 planters and taking off the fertilizer to mount on a cultivator to sidedress. I'm wondering what to do with the rest of the planter. I'm not afraid to scrap stuff (took in $800 worth of unusable iron last week), but HATE to see good, useable equipment go into the yard. Scrappers that do that make me sick.
I was looking through pics of 56 planters on a google search and it seems like a 2 row is literally a 4 row less the outer 2 rows. Am I able to cut the 2 outer rows off and have a "stock" 2 row planter?
UPDATE - after looking at some more pictures and a few youtube videos, I think I'm more likely going to have to move the hitch and wheel tubes and cut the planter in two versus just cutting off the outer rows.
