Juneau, WI
Had the same problem there are two issues. Pluribus units draft to the left. The other problem is the units throw the dirt 3 inches to the outside of where the dirt is coming from. You can't seem to eliminate this entirely, but putting 1 inch spacers on your outside wheels will get rid of 2/3rd's of this problem. This will force the dirt in closer to where it is suppose to be. If you try to go further than an inch the dirt will boil out in front of the tire. If you look at the strip closely you will see a small trench to the inside of the row and loose dirt on top of undisturbed dirt to the outside. There will not be a trench after you add the spacers, but the dirt mound will still be about an inch off of center. I'm going to place my units one inch closer to the center for this year, but I was pretty happy after putting the spacers in. I wish the draft didn't exist, but not much you can do about that besides setting your offsets. Talk to Joe at Dawn about the spacers.
