You've never seen all these tractors put to work on the same project! Farm Tools!
What happens here
Prepare the Woods PSS72 Precision Super Seeder by familiarizing yourself with its three hoppers: one for small seeds like clover, one for cool-season grasses and cereal grains, and a third for native grasses. Use the provided adjustment charts to correctly set the seed rate for each type of seed. Load the native grass seed (a mix including Virginia Wild Rye, Indian Grass, Lanceleaf Coreopsis, Eastern Gamagrass, Switchgrass, and Little Bluestem) into the designated hopper. The seeder also features a spiked roller at the front to break up compacted soil and a cultipacker at the rear to press the seed into the ground, ensuring good seed-to-soil contact.
Goal: Configure and load the precision seeder for optimal grass planting.
