- ** Edit - I failed to mention the adjustable plow at the bottom of the unit. An important adjustment for proper seeding **
Join me as I try out the Chapin Garden Seeder model 8701B, purchased from Amazon. I also do some tilling with my Kubota B2601 compact tractor and Land Pride RGA 1258 forward tine rotation tiller. Is this automatic seed planter right for you? Join along to see how to plant Indian corn. #MCGtv #B2601 #Gardening

I have a Chapin seeder. Used it for two years now. I have added weight to the end of the row marker to make the line more visible. Had and Earthway before this one. I like the Chapin better.
I wasn’t expecting much of a video hoping it would show me kinda what this seeder does but man this was a very great video. You showed every single aspect of the product shown. You was extremely thorough. Not any senseless babbling just straight to the point with just enough of “corny” jokes thanks for making a great video
Hi Zach. Thanks so much for your kind comments. Much appreciated! -Ed
Thank you for such a comprehensive review of this seeder. I really appreciated it. I'm deciding between this one and the Earthway. I wish you all the best this growing season!
Thank you, Frederick! I haven’t seen an Earthway in person, but I’ve heard of them.
How much for this one?
Love it .. I plan on turning my front yard into a corn 🌽 field . 1 love growing. 2 freak out my neighbors.
Thanks Ed! Looks like we are heading to the store to pick one of these up locally! Excellent video and well done. The dogs are great helpers... :(
Thank you!
Hello from Hancock Farm & Seed Co.! Awesome video and very informational! Thanks for the shout out! Store the seed in a cool, dry location. We recommend trying to plant the seed within one year to ensure that the seed will still have majority germination and you will have great results. Happy Planting!
Chris Hancock hey Chris, thanks for the comment! I actually planted another much larger plot too. I’ve used at least half of the bag by now. I’ll definitely store the balance as you recommended. The corn from this video is now 8-10” and thriving. Thanks! -Ed
thanks for showing me how to use my seeder! Great vid
Thank you so much for taking the time to post this. I couldn't figure out how to install the seed disc. So simple once I saw how you did it.
Thank you Kathryn. There’s also a depth adjustment underneath that I failed to demonstrate. Happy planting! -Ed
@@MyClutteredGarage thats what I wanted to know about! Great video,I assume the corn grew well and was pretty uniform?
@@smittywerbenyeagermenjenso3720 you need really powdery soil for even seed distribution. My corn did come in a little bit spotty.
Used an Earthway for many years but found it to be a bit flimsy. It works well but has needed a bit of repair through the years. This one looks a bit sturdier. Good video.
Thank you. I haven’t used the Earthway, but this one is mostly plastic. It works ok but something more substantial would be nicer for sure.
I bought one and found if the soil is loose and loamy the front tire sinks in the dirt. This caused place with no seeds others with way to many. Spent 3 days transplanting corn to fill in the spaces. Next time I'm going to make sure the soil is a little packed down. That was sweet corn, it plant my string beans good. I had to thin then out later though.

The seeds can be put in the freezer. They will last several years. I have a seder much like yours. I love mine. When I think it Is planting to close I use tape and block off every other cup spacing plants farther apart. I did not think of that. I seen it on RUclips.
ЛАЙК!!! Хороша сівалка у нас таких немає. УСПІХІВ.
Haha! Our dog eats corn too. We used to put it out for the squirrels to keep them away from the bird feeder. We had to stop because the dog would just stand out there and eat it all. 😂
Thanks for watching, Ashley. Crazy dogs! 😄
Great video!
Good evening Sir, you have a great fury assistant👍That seeder is nice !!!👍 Your music head set too 👍😉😂Ho !!!

@@MyClutteredGarage 👍😉
I'm actually going to get this for my grandparents make it a little easier on them thank you for sharing!!
good job. good references for making that tools
Glad it was helpful!
Going to buy one for this coming spring.Thanks
Hmm! No doubt this is one of the hand-driven seed planters with the most outstanding performance. Is there kind of a handout or an article to read on about it?
Excellent
I have been using an earth way seeder for quite a few years I got it from r h shumway for 89dollors everything thing works fine but the oakry plate going to give you a problem the seeds want to get be hind the plate I have seen some try to reinforce the plate to solve the problem it needs to be made out metal but that would drive up the cost what I do I lean the planter over a little go a little slow seeds want try to get be hind the plate I get a good stand when ii gets taller I thin the plants out for the money the planter is pretty hard to beat I'm pleased with mine
Good video, good information! But, two comments please Ed. Dogs and gardens don't mix! Secondly, why did you put your garden in the shade? Gardens need lots, if not full sun! But, if that's all the space you have, then go for it... but put the dogs in a pen or fence your garden. :)
Thanks Durwood. We ended up in talking a small fence. We got plenty of produce given the partial shade. I really appreciate your input!
Hey Ed, great video! I thought for a minute you and your wife had matching tractors! Do you put up any fencing to keep other animals besides your dogs out? That seeder looks awesome. How long are your rows? Thanks for reviewing it. We are having a rain day here, so no garden work for me today! Cheers!!
Haha thanks! It would be fun to have matching tractors! I had fencing all around when we had sheep but that was a while ago. We started putting the garden in the back yard thinking there would be less chance for deer. The rows are probably 50’ long. I think the corn rows should be more like 24” apart but we’ll see. I’m going to plant another patch in a different spot too. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you’re having a good spring!
My question is, with your Amazon seeder, can you adjust the spacing between each seed? I.e.: 4”, 6”, 12”, etc. thanks! Otherwise thanks for showing. I may resort to this until I can afford a Jang JP-1.
Just ordered one thank you! How is it holding up? Man I wish you where my neighbor here in Orlando! I would gladly pay you and toss in some lunch/barley pops to rototill a small plot for me. Its a bugger with my small front tine tiller lol
Thanks for watching. If anything, I wish it were heavier, but there aren't many options. Overall, I'm still very happy with it! I'd gladly till your garden if we were neighbors!
How do u keep deer, ground hogs and rabbits off of your plantings?
Thx
Sometimes short chicken wire for rabbits. Been lucky with deer so far.
Very helpful video thanks!
Do you think you can use it for sorghum seeds too ?
Benito Monney thanks for your comment. I’m not familiar with seeding sorghum, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work.
Thanks!
The rows are close each other. ., So if u plant many rows. .what is the best way to clean weeds between places of rows?
Weeds are a battle! By hand or with a hoe is the only way I know of.
I am wondering if there is a smaller version seeder that can be used in tall, contained raised beds, like a 2 or 3 cinderblock high raised bed?
You might try something like this? amzn.to/2ZGEk1g
Have u ever used this planter to plant sunflowers?... if so was it successful?
Thx
Absolutely! All the time. Works great!
Looking good! What part of the country are you in? We have the same fence, same dirt, same big trees, same pine tree farm, we might be neighbors???
Thanks so much! I’m in Southern NJ. We get a bad rap but it’s a beautiful state! -Ed
Can i plant sunflower seed with this seeder?
Thx
OH... sorrry I just saw u dumping sunflower seed into the hopper.
This made me feel like putting on a skirt and whooping up a batch of cookies.
I like molasses cookies.
Are you still happy with the seeder Ed?
I haven't used it yet this season, but I was happy with it last year so I expect I'll be happy with it still. Thanks for watching!
Can this machine sow very small seeds like poppy flowers?
I’m not sure but it has some plates for very small seeds. Thanks for watching!
Is there a plate in there for okra? Great video!!
Not that I've seen but there are several sizes! :)
Just got one today, disappointed so far. But i think that i need to go over the bed again because it is sticking from watering yesterday. Hope that will help it work.
I also think that it wont work like i want because i only have the little packets of seeds.
Yeah the dirt needs to be pretty powdery.
@@MyClutteredGarage yeah, wanted one for years. So i hope i can get it to work, otherwise i have to hand seed another 40x60 roughly
@@sketchman1981 don’t forget you can adjust the depth of the seeder. I forgot to mention that in the video.
Hi Sir,
Which camera you used for shooting this vedio
This is recorded with the Canon EOS M50. Thanks for watching!
Just bought one and waiting to use. One question tho. Did you do a video of the corn growing? Was the spread really good or did it spread the seeds good for growing
It does a good job with the seed spacing. You can see the corn fully grown in video #21. Thanks for watching.
@My Cluttered Garage - Outdoors and DIY the chapin seeder can you show picture of setting the inches. I set at 2" and looks too deep.
U got a lot of grass to deal with later
I wondering when f the plates are the same as the earth way seeder plates
Bought the Hoss Seeder. Not worth the money.
Not sure. This one is mostly plastic, but does the job. Just used it again yesterday!
Do you know how far is one seed to another one?
Depends on which seed plate you use.
Hi Ed. Thanks for the video. Any update on how well the seeds germinated? Thanks
shayne caesar thanks for watching. Yes, the seeds did well and my corn is about 12” high. One thing I failed to do (and mention in the video) is to adjust the depth of the “plow” on the seeder. I don’t think I was setting them deep enough, so I do have some bald patches (I think birds or squirrels got to any exposed seed. Really appreciate your comment! -Ed
@@MyClutteredGarage thank you for responding. I am about to plant corn and trying go be efficient. Any down sides to using it? I see some reviews speak of how flimsy ut's built and how it skips seeds
shayne caesar I do think it’s rather light weight and I haven’t used it enough to know if the patches are from skipped seeds or not. I think it’s good for the price. I also think it’s important to take it slow. Good luck and let me know how it goes!
@@MyClutteredGarage thanks again
shayne caesar you can see an update on my latest video: ruclips.net/video/MZ6g-7hrKzU/видео.html
One question. How deep does it plant the seed? And is the depth adjustable?
Hi Kyle. The blade on the bottom is adjustable. I realized later that I did not share that on the video. I probably adjust to 2 inches deep or so. Thanks for watching! -Ed
@@MyClutteredGarage wow, sounds like a perfect corn seeder! Looks way above it's similar priced competitors.
@@WoodchuckNorris.8o I do wish it were a little heavier. The wheels are plastic and it's all pretty light. It does the job, and seems good for the price! Happy planting!
Yeah I am going to need something a bit more robust and faster
Good for a small food plot or garden, but if you have acres to plant, you’ll need more than this. Thanks for watching.
I like it. How much is the machine and how can I order for one? I am in Nairobi Kenya East Africa
Thanks for watching. I purchased through Amazon.
You did not show the depth adjustment on the bottom of seeder.
You are right! I realized that after releasing the video. Thanks for watching! -Ed
From what you read corn needs to be planted 12 inch apart in the row. With the price of seed. This would put out way to many seed.
Can I buy it in Thailand?
Why would you plant Coen, wich is a grass in the shade. Grass loves nitrogen and sun. Now u nonwhy grass doesn't grow good in shade well either does corn
We bought one but can't plant pumpkin seeds 😔
Bummer. Yeah pumpkin seeds are pretty big. Thanks for watching!
Is there a seeder for doing pumpkins ?
Thanks for reaching out! I’m not really sure because pumpkin seeds get planted pretty far apart.

Rather than lifting it you simply do a wheelie, much easier.
Is there a plate for soy beans?
Hi. Not sure if it’s marked for them, it I’m sure one of the plates would be used for Soy. Thank you.
If the dog disturbing doesn't give you a smile, you my friend have no heart
Where to buy it
Here's an amazon affiliate link: amzn.to/41qtGJL
Put seed in freezer.
Türkiye de satıcısı varmı?
Can you tell me if you still recommend this seeder?
I do. It’s very light, so the soil needs to be very loose. It distributes the seeds very nicely. There’s a link in the description that helps the channel if you’re interested. Thanks for watching and good luck!
Have you tried carrot seeds?
Marty Johnson - good morning. I have not tried carrot seeds with this planter. But I believe there is seed plate labeled for carrot seeds. Thanks for watching!
@@MyClutteredGarage thanks for the reply. I was almost shocked to get it.
Keep up the good work.
All that land and you put the garden in the shade under a huge tree.
Sir plesse sand me addres
All seeders of this design are junk and very bad at planting just one seed evenly spaced spent years fighting with various ones. Save your money and buy a Hoss Seeder if you are serious about growing stuff
Is there a plate in there for okra? Great video!
Not that I've seen but there are several sizes! :)
