dri - 5/22/2013 05:57 Three yr old planter on an 8320, hyd flow is at 8 or 9, so pretty high, the vacs are only at 2.8. I use the seed meter prime when I get started and thats not the issue. I'm not sure how if it is radar or gps I will have to find out. I like the ease of chnaging rates, but don't like it when I have to start and stop out in the field. I wonder if I can put a trans on this thing and use both, with the one turning the fastest being the one controlling seed drop. The reason this is a problem is because in terraces I have to plant up against the riser, raise, go over riser, lower and take off again. This can be 20 or 30 times in a field, so I am going to have a lot of gaps. The old mech drive planter, if I pulled forward 3 ft it would drop 3 ft worth of seed, the hyd drive has a 2 mph minimum so it might drop 20 seeds in 3 ft. Then when taking off again it takes a little time to react and by then I might have 12 to 15 ft gap. I can stop the seed drop as I come to a stop by shutting off the master switch for the row clutches but still have the gap when I take off again. Just thinkin, done with corn for this year, unless there is replant, so looking at things for next yr.
