Just a quick tip for having your tubes on drill last longer, pull and bag just one tube and multiply that by number of tubes to get your seed weight. Great video, very good content. Keep it coming!
Wow oh my gosh. Y’all might want to watch Jeff Strgis of Whitetail Habitat Solutions. I have learned so much about food plots from him. Planting summer food plots are a waste of money. Plant fall plots because you want your buck there in hunting season not in the summer
Very nice and great detail. I just planted my dove field June 12th (video on it premiering 6/18) and I have been struggling with crab grass. It tried to take over the field last year and this year I plowed the 5 acre plot March 21st, sprayed the growing grasses April 10, plowed again April 24th, sprayed the growing weeds again May 28th and when I arrived on on June 12th to plow and plant I still had grasses coming up and growing in the area. This is all shown in the video. All I could do on June 12th was turn it in. They were young with no seed heads, but I feel the seed bank is so heavy that every time I disk I am just bringing seed up close to the surface to sprout. I planted Millet, not drilled but spread at 40 pounds per acre and I'm hoping the millet will out grow the crab grass. If I can ever get the crab grass under control I'll be one happy dove field planter. Thanks again for the video and all the great information you've provided!!!
Good info!! I tried the millorganite ( spelling ? Lol) on a plot of turnips, the 2nd yr in that particular plot,it did keep the deer at bay but it did seem to last for over a month . Just an observation. I'm trying alfalfa pellets ,works great in my veggie garden . Good hunting and stay safe all!!!
It is an 8' grain drill that i had a local metal worker cut down and made into a 4' grain drill so that it is able to be pulled by an atv or a utv. You can some times find them for sale on craigslist or facebook market place. I hope this helps. Thank you for watching.
I have a small kubota b3300su, I noticed that your seeder is rope actuation, and you said you had it cut down, I have a Kawasaki mule and a Polaris 400 sportsman, wood love to have something like this, did you buy that brand new or find an old one? What kind is it, I usually throw and go but would like to go this route, any advice would be much appreciated
Curious about what kind of soil you are working in? Is it sandy or clayish ? Just trying to gauge what kind of soil is best served with a grain drill verses a no-till drill!
The soil you see in the video is clay. My south food plot turns to a more sandy loam. Ive had good results in both. I hope this helps you. A no till drill is the best way however if your like me i dont have enough acres of plots to justify the cost of a tractor and a no till drill. I do like the small drill and atv to get into small plots and harder to access locations.
Great video, thanks for sharing your knowledge. May I ask how you found that grain drill. I like the size of it. I have access to an old 10 footer that is probably a little big for my Polaris. How hard are they to cut down like that.
Can i get more info on that seeder please? What model John deere do I search for? You said its an 8 footer that's split in half.....I love the idea if I can find one at a reasonable price because I have an Atv already. Id love to be able to do a few acres of food plots without breaking the bank on equipment.

Soil builder. He's fertilizing his fall plot.
😂
It will be interesting to see how your food plot looks come this fall, great video!
Great information,and I love that blue healer. I’ve got two of them wonderful dogs!
I got one today like that but the 8 feet I may cut it but I have a 25hp tractor I may just weld a 3point
Where can I get a seed drill like yours!

Very good video with explaining things
That drill is money ,,,,
Nice video. Cool looking grain drill. Do you use it as a no-till drill?
On existing plots yes, new areas ill till then drill my seed in.

JD
Awesome info.. ty
Great video

Anyone interested in parts for 2 ground drives for the JD drill?
This drill looks like a John Deere FB series.
Good video other than the glyphosate that stuff is nasty
Lol concerned about cost as you spend money to attract the most expensive meat you’ll ever eat..that’s hilarious..
