I am planting soybeans and corn with my 3pt JD 247 Planter. The planter has dry fertilizer containers with rubber drop tubes. My question is where should the tubes be aimed? The fertilizer drops small amounts continuously and I have been told to keep fertilizer 2" from the seed. So, do I let the fertilizer fall directly into the seed channel or should I tie the tubes to the side a bit so it falls on top of the ground next to the seed channel? Thanks
