Looks like it's a free flow applicator, not driven. Not sure I'd like that. That's why I used the EW planter so as to meter it out in small amounts. But yeah, if you think about it, get a pic and post.

Deer had a learning moment this morning. This was before the video of her being snapped on the nose with 5000 volts

Yes, free flow with adjustable opening. It works fine for gardens because I can adjust the opening and/or walk faster or slower.

Thanks, believe I'll stick with what I'm doing.

I do love that I can easily meter it to 1lb per 100' row. So after 2 applications I'll have about 1lb of nitrogen for 100'. The seed plate is so precise

Any more info on that unit? any pictures?

It's just an Earthway seeder. I use the large pea plate for urea. Equates to about 1lb per 100' row. So, .46lb of nitrogen.

Got it. Thanks.

These are my cages. The metal one is wire for concrete work and at an 18” diameter. I think you can get 7 or 8 out of a roll of wire.




The wooden one I made with oak, staples and waterproof glue. Five years old now. Might make a couple more but of pine. Close to 6' tall.
