I have found 4 JD 71 Planters in a local farmers barn. I am contemplating buying then and Building a two row planter. He'll give me a better deal on all 4 and then I can sell the other two to someone else.
Questions:
Does the toolbar have to be solid bar for a two row planter or can it be 2x2x1/4" tubing???
Anybody figured out a way yet to add fertilize to a JD 71??? (Farminwithjunk)
I called Holland Transplanter and they have a ground driven system, but I don't know the price yet. Probably way more than I want to spend.
I would add liquid if I knew how to set up a system. I can buy the liquid coultors off ebay for about $75.00 each and have a local source for liquid fertilizer. I could buy a tank etc... and set up a system if I knew how to regulate it.
I plan to plant about 10 acres of field corn to pick with the New Idea 323 and sell as ear corn. Not looking to get rich, but make a little money.
I have a covington tp46 that I planted with last year, but it's not accurate enough and I want to be able to plant in 30" rows.
