My suggestion is to get a sprayer with a 120' boom so that you match 3 planter passes.   Then slide the rows on your planter beside your "wheel tracks" each out 1' to make a pair of 22" rows to ride in with the sprayer.

380 tires work great in a 22" row.     And once your eyes are trained to it, it is very very easy to pick out the wide rows.


Been doing that for years with a 90' pull type and an 18 row 20" planter (30').



I’ve thought about the wider row idea too for the tire tracks. So what happens at corn harvest with those rows, does the corn head just have to push them over 1”? The problem with that is my Geringhoff Rota Disc is very fussy about being exactly on the row, or it leaves long unchopped stalk pieces.
