I am in the process of seeding 7 acres of my property with wildflowers for polinators. I was planning on renting a broadcast seeder from a local seed store and am wondering how to make sure that I get the seed evenly spread. I have researched and found that the first pass over the field should only spread half of the seed. The second pass should run perpendicular to the first pass to spread the remainder of the seed. I'm not sure of the rate or width that I need to apply the seed but will be able to get that when I pick up the seed and spreader. This seed is very expensive and my greatest concern is that I will run out of seed before I get the field covered. I have heard that there are aps available for your phone that use the gps and guide you through the field. My neighbor has a gps on his tractor and used it to spray the field. I would rather not have to bother him to spread the seed and would like to do it myself. Sorry for the long post but any help from the forum would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
