[QUOTE="Wigeon, post: 7182247, member: 52408"] Not got the seed fiddle out yet, but not far off... Anyway, can anyone tell me about how th old boys used to do it? This is onto worked heavy ground that's had a press. Assuming they had access to a wagtail, what would they have covered the seed with? Prime mover will be 36hp kubota on duals probably. Seems like the options are: Zig zag harrows on whipple tree. Presumably these bounce all over the shop at any speed, particularly in pressed ground. Also a royal pita. Grass harrows. Struggle to move enough soil? Chain harrows: dont know anything about them. Lightweight spring tine. Risks cutting slots, tractor might not pull it. Any tips from the experts would be hugely appreciated! Yours in slight desperation... [/QUOTE]
