Subject: RE: Y drop app successes and/or dissatisfactions


Morris, IL
Would these work for stopping flow on the turns? https://www.dultmeier.com/products/0.811.812.2178.4020/2723 https://www.dultmeier.com/products/0.811.812.2175.4004/6744 Those together should be an inline check valve you could put in place if you have room. I was going to try something similar on mine but didn't work out. I've been worried about them dribbling all round the turns but so far hasn't been a problem. I think i found some narrow inline check valves that would work with my homemade version of Y drops but they are not cheap and i'd need 24x of them.

Interested what everyone has to say, i have some built and have tried them in few fields, like them and like what i see as far as placement, going to do a little more here this week if it dries out enough. Mine are a 5mph tool in my opinion, mine seem to wiggle through guess or point rows pretty easy, sure if you are doing headlands and your crossing the row in corner or something no that won't work but the other 99.9% of the field your good. I plan to hold back some of my sidedress NH3 next year and place it with my Y drops. Like to setup a test next year all Y drop (early and late), all sidedress NH3, and sidedress NH3 early followed by Y drop late. Also like to compare a Hagie NTB vs my Y drops.
