Did you ever get a pic of your drilling rig, the established crop photos look well!
Hey mate sorry i haven't i will be home tuesday - will get one - ive had another 25mm rain on crop so hoping net blotch is not rampant!!
This is a pic when i sowed my first wheat crop, its the same rig just has 3 row harrows now (which didnt do a great deal - so they will come off and Guttlers will go on).
The seeder cost me $900 and the roller cost $2200 and can be filled with water if needed...does good job sowing wheat into worked seed bed - future direct drilling i will need to do something with tines, or update to something later..
I plan to play around with the cheaper seeders until i know what works in certain conditions..i'd say i might own a nice disc drill one day but will keep these old MF's..i have one i am setting up as a dedicated winter bean drill and maybe millet etc summer crop...i will use y pieces ( bought from hardware store for $1 each) and run two rows into one so its on 14" spacings.
And i will never part with my beloved 3350 (John)...need to buy a 100HP FWA soon however..
Ant....
