An Easier way to Plant your Garden! Earthway Garden Planter Seeder!

What happens here

After planting the peas, the pea seed plate is removed from the seeder, and the hopper is emptied of any remaining pea seeds. The sweet corn seed plate (specifically for 'Silver Queen Corn') is then installed, and the hopper is filled with the corn seeds. The gardener mentions that he mixed in some other corn varieties given by a neighbor to increase diversity. The depth setting is maintained at 1 inch, suitable for both peas and corn. The seeder is again pushed along the rows, this time planting the corn. The emphasis is on the efficiency of the tool for a small garden.

Goal: Plant corn seeds and reflect on the efficiency and benefits of the planting process.
