Subject: Planters for ridge till



SE IL Mt.Erie, IL
I am using a 1720 JD 16 30 right now and am having trouble keeping it on top of the ridge. I have martin UMO 100 fert openers on it, 8 left hands and 8 rights. I notice some neighbors using 16/31 kinze planters and doing better than me but no openers just no till coulters.

Pulling it with a 765B cat with sway blocks shimmed so they have 1/4 to 3/8 inch of play. Is that not tight enough?

I also run a trimble fmx rtk system.

I would like a bigger planter in the near future also. Will a kinze 3800 24 row work at all?
