garden planter

gab · May 30, 2015

Anybody got one of these, Lambert Golden Harvest, bought this a few years ago at a consignment sale for 20 bucks. It's got 6 plates but I just plant sweet corn with it, drops between 1 and 4 kernels every 6 inches. I only plant about a dozen 60 foot rows but this plastic junk sure is fast for 20 bucks.

I have a planter like that different brand,,, garden way maybe,, works great I bought mine used at a auction missing the plates for $5 bucks, plates cost me another $20,,, well worth every penny!

I have the similar planter, with a box of plates. I think mine is called Earth Way, I have only used mine for sweet corn, but am planning on trying it today on beet seed, and maybe on carrot seed.

I have a couple of the Earthway planters good planters and apparently a lot more accurate than the IH cyclo 800 planters costing 1000's$$$ more(LOL)

I have one a lot like that made by Earth way. My dad got it years ago and I use it to plant corn with in my food plots.

I have a planter kind of like that, but my planter is more Hi-teck. My planter has the voice command option,. I just program the planter, then sit back with my favorite adult beverage and watch it work. I do have to keep an eye on it or it will plant rows to close and that sort of thing, but still I have had worse jobs. Oh ya, I can operate this planter from the shade.

I've got one like Bruce (Canada) uses, but my voice command parameter is broken!! If I do use it, the voice command is one from inside my head!! Gotta listen to that !!

Better than nothing. I had a couple ove the years but finally bought a rebuilt Planet Jr. on EBay and rigged it up on my little Kubota. Now rather than dreading to plant, I look forward to it.
