 Well, I just got through planting 16 acres of a winter wheat, tritcale, oat and winter pea mixture for a food plot for wildlife and one thing I know for certain is that next time I will be sure that the settings on the drill are correct BEFORE I load the hopper! When it was all said and done I went around the fields 3 1/2 times to be an application of 60lbs per acre of seed down. I had the gears set to maximum most of that time but was second guessing myself and ran them at a lower setting for a while before I actually counted the gears to make sure I was at the maximum setting. Is the only other adjustment how far you have the openings in the seed bin open? To get it all done in one pass it looks like I would have to take the plate completely off? I would take pictures to show the how the gears are set but the drill is 100 miles away. I'm pretty positive about the acres because that is what they are certified acres with USDA so I don't think it is a case where I'm overestimating the acres or anything. The drill seemed to work well and was well worth the $250 I paid for it, but I have got to get this figured out before I plant again! Can anyone help me sort this out and describe in laymans terms how to change the settings? Thanks, Nathan
