Yes Sir,

Used to have two 150 barrels strapped to the sides of my 766 and laid that liquid in there right along with the planter. It really worked sweet because the weight of the liquid offset the planter, the seed, herbicide and insecticide hangin' back there on the other end.

If the season was right, we knifed the Nitrogen in early before planting, or if we were running late due to weather, we could always come back and side-dress later.

I liked to do it early as a guy could take a bigger swath using a wider applicator and it also allows one to tow a nurse tank. Side-dressing requires stopping and filling the rig.

The boys around here are knifing in ammonia just as hard as they can go right now tryin' to hit that May 1 planting date.
