Did something happen to the depth stop and allow them to be planted extra deep? I think they had a couple different depth control setups over the years for them, so check over everything even if the handle is in the same place as all the rest. As you planted, did the seed seem to go down fairly level, or was it higher in that particular spot in the box?

Is it an outside row, so it shows up as 2 rows beside itself about every 30’?

Are you sure that the seed flowed properly through the flex tube and didn’t just dump a bunch on the ends when you lifted it up? This style drill was noted for the sagging flex tubes when in plant position. Should raise the spring pressure bar as high as possible if left in transport for storage. With 3,500+ seed count tiny beans this year it’s takes a lot of travel distance to get enough seed to fill those tubes when they are not flowing this year.
