Tuscola, IL
We have excellent spacing with our cyclo. No, it's not perfect. But it is beyond acceptable. There are several things you can do to vastly improve the metering. Keeping the drum drive chains tight and lubricated, driving fast enough to keep planter from rocking back and forth at the hitch, not letting seed tubes chatter back and forth which causes seed to spiral down the tube instead of sliding. The row unit can't be beat, especially for no tilling. We went from a 7000 JD to a cyclo and the spacing is nearly as good, if not as good, and the emergence is far better and quicker than the Deere. I wouldn't hesitate to plant your corn with the cyclo.
