Lou, did he get the earthway planter ? I needed something for corn and bought one 2 years ago, its ok, seems tricky to get seed to drop uniformly and consistently, in these soils, some rocks etc, no good in any kind of clumps. Something about filling the little hopper, gets too low, you have to lean it into the seed plate, too full something else, I've had skips. I think its too light, I need to find an old Planet Jr, iron and wood, heavier and would have to work better, well push easier or better through these soils. The earthway is probably best for ideal soils, which part of my larger garden does not have yet, I think its on the edge of the fill line when the house was built, and it came from the bottom of the hill here, garden plants will grow in it, just the rocks and clay. There are new models similar to the old Planet Jr's being made, but like $600, next on my list, shoulda never passed on a nicely kept, complete, almost NOS one I saw on CL a few years back, was only $250, with the manual.
PS, I see that cold air coming in up your way, time to keep my stove going !
