NW IL, Mercer County | I am finding significant air pockets from the seed up an inch before it closes above. Planting corn at 2" into semi dead 2' rye. Where the rye is thin and basically planting into bare bean stubble it seems to be a little better but I just cant get that bottom 1" around the seed sealed up. The seed is firmed in the trench just a void above is the problem. Put 1 yetter spiked wheel on 2 different rows and wow what a difference. Only thing is I need a second one cause its still not fulling closing the bottom inch but better than 2 std wheels. Conditions arent perfect but these small 1-2 weather windows have to be taken advantage of. Anyone care to share their setup for corn into rye??
