Subject: Air seeder monitor


Idaho
I built an air seeder unit on a chisel plow. Spacing is 12". At 950,000 wheat seeds (70# mol) per acre it is about .6 inches between seeds. At 6 mph is there a monitor which can "count" (about 30 seeds /sec) this flow? Seed monitors are rare in this area so my experience is nil. I have electric scales on the drill box so calibration is not really the issue. Just trying to be on the cutting (read "bloody bleeding edge") of things.
Switch gears

Maybe I really want just a can bus seed flow go-no-go/blockage monitor. I have cctv to do a visual but sometimes my attention span is limited. ADD or something anyway I, conversly, don't want very many more wires or cables on this contraption. Suggestions.
