I have one of these planters. I used it only once. I planted sugar snap peas with it. I bought the cotton can for planting carrots and some turnups in the fall. Dont know how well it will work for carrots will find out this weekend.
Just purchased the Covington Planter, very swell working and smooth with planting sweet corn, blue corn. First seen the Covington Planter on stevenstractor video upload, researched it and bought it. Thanks for the tips/help and recommedation for the planter. Very very good asset for small acre farming.
I used the covington planter to plant corn, pole beans, peas, orka. It work great on all seeds except the orka. When I planted orka it kept locking up.
That's a right interesting "cohn plantah" love that accent!
Where do you get your bags of sweet corn seeds?
I like it, but the boxes look too small. How many times would you have to
refill to plant an acre of corn?
I have this planter that I bought used from a gentleman in Georgia about three years ago. I've been having trouble with it dropping several seeds at one time and then leaving a space before dropping several more. Is the problem coming from not keeping the tractor moving when lowering and lifting?
Very well done. Thanks for the great detail and pace of teaching. I would like to have seen something on the fertilizer hopper/distribution. Thanks, Rick
Hi, When using your kubota and covington, what was your row spacing for the corn? I have a similar size (L3130), but with industrial tread tires. I've got 52" from center to center tire and cannot figure out a way to make a narrower row than 52". The planting charts all pretty much say 22" to 38" spacing between rows. Do you have any advice on what I can do? Thanks, Rick – Tennessee
are the bungee straps on the fertilizer hopper to hold out the drop tubes away from the row?
Take that darn small hopper off, put on the large twin hopper and turn that Covington into a speed master duplex. I have used them for years!!
I notice he uses the spring tooth instead of the 5 shank one row. Which would you recommend? How much is a one point fast hitch add on?
I have one just like yours I'm restoring and will use it later his year. Can you do one with some information on the fertilizer hopper, Also when you go down a row are you coming back up with the opposite tire in the previous one grove ? Great job
any problems with singulation on sweet corn?
would love to see you do a video on how to setup/adjust the fertilizer hopper
How do I set the fertilize hopper for the correct amount to drop from the different seeds?
Can you side dress with this planter
What is the spacing for the rows ?
Just got my first Covington planter!
What seed plate was you using for the sweet corn?
Why do you need to drive so slow? Other regular corn planters are made to plant 5mph or faster…
Do you make garden push planter? Is there a way to change distances in any givin seed? What is your prices on a push planter? Thanks
