BENEFITS |
2" or 3" Spacing |
Knife spacing for different geographic soil types, conditions and moisture. |
Seed to soil contact |
Knives create a slit, the seed is precisely placed in the slit and the roller incorporates seed to soil contact (for better seed germination). |
Easy seed cup and seed box emptying |
Flute is designed to allow easy clean out of material in seed box and seed flutes. |
Seed box agitator |
Eliminates seed bridging. |
Seed cups with powder metal flutes |
Superior metering accuracy by each flute. Powder metal dissipates heat to keep cups running cool. |

More aggressive, picks up thatch. |
Curved Knives |
Less aggressive and less disturbance of thatch layer. |
Small seeds box |
Simultaneously seeds second type of seed. |
Slit seeder attachment |
