Subject: 1900 cart wont plant Rye or oats, but is fine with beans, peas and raddish



Central Ohio
So what do you suppose is wrong with my cart? Yesterday I was planting cover crop after soybeans we were harvesting. We planted soybeans with this air seeder in the spring just fine.

I planted some raddish with the front tank and winter peas in the rear tank. Metered beautifully. Switched to oats in the rear tank when the peas ran out. Seemed to plant for a few acres, then just quit. Did the same thing when we tried rye last year. The meter is still turning. The front is planting fine as my raddish seed metered perfectly across the whole field.

Could the oats and rye be too light, or something? Could they be grinding up into a meal and not feeding?


Anyone had a similar problem?
