Subject: Twin Rows


Near Intersection of I-35 & I-90 Southern Mn.
We had some discussion concerning this and didn't come up with a very smooth approach.

One thought I had was to setup the planter(s) with some type of arrangement so that the front and back rows go On/Off together. This would defeat some of the advantages of Seed Command in seed savings.

Under this approach we might need split the difference between the two setback differences and fool with the lead time factors enough so that there are no seed gaps. This might be done at the expense of not picking up maximum seed savings.

We were discussing other planters where the setback differences between the front units and the back units was not terribly great. Since this scenario really never materialized we sort of forgot about it.
