Doesn't the PH bury the first drilled pass too deep?

Not that l have ever noticed, I will admit to having worried about it the first time, but have always found that the rows from both passes are fairly distinct and look similar..

How would the Accord drill do with small seeds like turnip? Would it be easy to calibrate for that size of seed?

I’ve drilled stubble turnips with an accord dl 4m. Use the fine seed rollers. Just make sure you don’t get the seed wet

Ive just bought a drill with an accord meter on it with the intention of sowing grass seeds. There is no meter scale on it however to know where you have it set. Do the settings in the calibration chart correspond to the opening of the roller in millimetres?
