[QUOTE="Flatlander, post: 7769853, member: 156006"] I’ve cleaned and dressed my own in the past but it’s a time consuming job. Have it cleaned now by an old fella that near 80. He does a good job and finds customers if your wanting to sell some. Dressing it I use a small 12v pump that will meter it out consistently and a small nozzle with a return valve to restrict the returns to pressure the nozzle. I mix it with water to cover the seed better. Usually run it thru twice to cover better and get the amount correct. Don’t dress and put into the drill. It will be damp and seed flow will be comprised and will put you in tears. Best done into a trailer the day before then into drill to breakup any stiff flowing seed. You’ll notice a better colour compared to commercial sources making you wonder about lower rates being used. Only run an auger half full as it will bind and nit have the tumbling mixing effect.
