Very cool. Damn is that fast! Way faster than walking spreading small seed with a Solo hand spreader.

Seeing all those rock on your field makes me feel a lot better about the 8 tractor bucketfulls I've pulled off my field.

I want pictures of how good you overlapped the wheel tracks so you don’t have 2’ gaps in your seed. Lol

Lol I think I did well as when I was drilling the beans a few of the seeds were laying on the tractor tire marks. The drill tire marks are wider than the tractor tire marks. I will take pics when the plots start to grow and see if it gets Mo's approval. lol

Tom....what model is that Kubota?
And....question #2 is how much invested into that three point drill?
And.....question #3 is what brand is that drill? (double disk openers?)
Looks like a pretty sweet set-up.

Looks like a pretty sweet set-up. L3301 33hp $2200 The drill is a John Deere Van Brunt model B Double disc openers. Thus the green paint, but the guy that did it for me would have painted it orange if I wanted it.

Does your guy do more of those? Seems a fair price if it's in good working order.

Yes the guy does a bunch of them every year. He makes sure every thing is working. They are a little cheaper if he doesn't paint them. He makes the 3 point that it is quick hitch compatible. I did a test strip in my soybean stubble from last year with the collards to see how it would work as no till.If you want I can pm you his phone number.
