[QUOTE="steveR, post: 8219244, member: 66976"] Not had any issues with any seeds going through the drill so far... Certainly never needed to wet anything! :oops: On "vibration", I would say that I experienced a very slight increase in seed rate ouput when drilling, as opposed to calibration, with super small seeds when I have a full hopper. Easily allowed for. The machine has it's limitation, it is not perfect in all conditions. But what is? ;) Penetration in hard ground in the Spring can be a problem, but extra weights are helping here now. Or as [USER=348]@neilo[/USER] had suggested, a light tickle with discs or similiar, where surface compaction has occured will allow a better job. PS, my only plough is due to vist the scrapyard once price creep up, BUT, I do use a good local Contractor when needed to turn the sod! [/QUOTE]
