You are on the right track to look at stand uniformity/seeding rates. We ran a JD 1790 12/24 for many years. Very solid planter. Good weight if needed for no-till but too heavy in conventional tillage. In a dry year no issues but in a challenging wet year really saw the negative effects from planting in the wheel tracks. In the 15' configuration you shift the 2 point hitch over so you end up with 10 of the 24 row units planting in either planter or tractor wheel tracks. We had too many wet springs and went to a 3620 white. On 60' width we have only 4 rows affected by wheel tracks.
