Drilling winter beans today with the 750a. Put it at full depth, but some of the beans were either not getting to the bottom of the slot or the discs weren't penetrating fully. Some were in over three inches, but others were more like 2 inches. What is too shallow for beans, and what are the problems incurred with a shallow drilling depth (I assume rooks are the main one)?
I know that people say that beans like a looser seedbed, but given the shallow depth of some, I wonder whether rolling would make it a bit more difficult to pull the beans out?
