Hi can anyone help me with the spacings on my webb turnip seeder seed cells. I am going to be sowing swedes at 6 inch spacings I know it is b cells I need to use but how many cups in cell should there be for sowing at 6 inch?
 
Millions of years since I used a Webb but there must be a number on cell wheel (B6 at a guess) and I seem to recall something on seed bag but that was probably the B designation which is seed size.
Failing that run the drill and see? Should be able to find seed if you pull in top link a bit

Ours was a 5 row, with gears. got a fair selection of wheels for it in the workshop only used it for swedes. Couple of the units leaked seed past the side plate and the wheel so was replaced by a stanhay belt type machine
