Great looking seeder brother! That would work great on my Ranger! We used a 3 point spreader on a tractor this year for soybeans! Thank you for sharing my friend!
I just picked one up today and got my sunflower broadcasted ahead of the rain coming Monday. I like it but with the sunflowers it had to be all the way open or they wont flow. Well, it emptied the hoper FAST. Like really fast. I only made 2 laps around a 1/2 acre plot and it was empty!! I filled it back up and had to just run around it like it was a nascar track.
Never planted sunflower seeds with mine but I know small seed goes pretty quick too. I think I might modify my seed adjuster to try and get a more even flow.
Hey Piney, You still enjoying that seeder? Just wondering how many times you’ve used it since this video and whether you’ve encountered any problems. Thanks!
I like it so far. Used it on several food plots. Honestly it does great on bigger seed like soybeans and wheat. Clover and small stuff so so good. The best thing I have found for small seed is a a shoulder bag seeder. They have a smaller gate opening for tiny seed.
Hows that working out? been looking at my options for an ATV Hitch mount seeder/fertilizer. How well did it work with small seed like clovers and millets and granular fertilizers? With the remote, im guessing it stops the spinner plate from turning, but the gate is still open. Did ya loose much seed when doing turn arounds, stopped with remote off, etc? EDIT....just saw a few of the comments and questions below with similar info.
@@speedbuggy7240 to be dead honest it doesn’t work well with small seed. It does better with oats and pellitized like. The plate for seed adjustment is kind of finicky
It throws a mixture of rye grass and oats 1/2 and 1/2 approximately 7 to 8 feet each side...watch for the wind...open gate 1/2 way...worked well for me...I hate to put fertilize in the hopper...but I am...Ill let u know...

Its a heavy duty seeder and would be perfect for soybeans. Thank you for watching brother.
I have been using 1 for almost 8 years a spinner plate is all I have had to replace. Awesome unit never used it for fertilizer.
That's awesome news. Thanks for sharing and watching.
How does it work with rye grass...how wide does it throw...
I am ordering one now ...thanks for the video...
Good deal. Glad the video helped in your decision. Your welcome and thanks for watching.

@@pineylifeI wish there was a speed controller for the motor.
I may put one one it to try.
It would be great to just slow the plate speed.
Great Video !!
Love The O D Green Power Coating,
But It Would Look Alot Better Camo 🤔🌲🌲🌲
Thank you Piney. Great idea. If this thing get scratched up I might just have to camo it. Lol.
Outstanding!
Thank you and thanks for watching.
Proto tools, that is the tools we have at work to lol!!!!!
They are some tough tools for sure. Thanks for watching.

Does the seed come pouring out when you stop the motor, or do you have to jump out and close the gate everytime? Thanks!
It piles up on the scatter plate till you turn the remote on. So yes if your seed is not set correctly it could com
e out pretty fast.
@@pineylife thanks for the reply!

I like it so far but to be honest it does not do good with five seed. A hand spreader does better.
How do you hook it up to a cigarette lighter on my utv
I would use one of these. Makes life a lot simpler. Should plug straight into the harness that comes with it. Heres the link. amzn.to/4gGSoxR
How do you hook it to a Polaris receiver hitch it’s to short
If its like my dads hisun you will have to get a hitch extension here is a link for the one we got him. amzn.to/3WAnFt5
How wide does is spread?
I would say 8 feet wide. Great for big seed or pelletized lime. not the best fir small seed.
@@pineylife Does the spreader have different size seed plates so you can use it for small seed?
