Subject: RE: 2 row JD 290 planter for sweet corn



Winchester, Ohio
If someone gives you the JD 290 then it is something to play with and then you really appreciate what Grandfather had to deal with! I have a 2 row Ford 309 and plant an acre of corn with it every year and every spring I get frustrated with it. It works but not that great. Lots of skips and doubles so I end up walking thru and hand thinning the doubles and getting aggravated at the misses. Our plan is to work towards a 2 or 4 row JD 71. We have a neighbor using one for small acreage (about 100) and it does very well! Anyone in southern Ohio help a guy out?
