Understanding the Seed Drill Mechanism

[Laughter] it looks pretty busy down there doesn't it so we're gonna go on up top here there's like a step we raised the hopper yeah right here is where you put your grass seed goes down into this hopper and then comes out through these little tubes right here and drops it in now I'll explain more of that later and here's how you choose your settings for whatever you're going to see there's a hopper for the finger smashing there's a hopper here and that's for grass seed fescue this is for your wheat and grain and this is for your clover we're gonna put a little bit of clover in with the mix so let me show you how these discs work on the no-till drill basically this disc right here cuts the ground it opens a little slit and then the seed drops in via these tubes right here and these tubes drop a seed in at a certain prescribed rate and these two discs together spread the soil and then after they spread the soil this wheel comes down and compresses it back down and that's the no-till drill actually no-till is till you are tilling a tiny little spot dropping a seat in and REE compacting it back down really cool it'll make the seed go down very nicely it'll make everything look good and we'll have little rows of grass seed as it starts to come up awesome stuff will show you progress as all this goes on as the grass starts coming up and everything today I got to bust my butt
