A man that didn’t make a mistake didn’t make anything. Don’t be too hard on your self, we all make them. The countryside in your part of the world looks great this time of year. Sometimes less seeds per acre gives the plants more space and they produce bigger cobs, but I can’t guarantee the final outcome. Regards from Down Under.
Yes, I’ve often found over the period of my lifetime that what seemed like a mistake at the time, turned out to be for the best in the long run. Hope it works out for you.
As a kid one of my fun jobs was to rob a little from one box to add to another when closing out the final few rows of a field location plant. Anything to avoid having to buy another bag of seed that we did not need. Unopened bags could be returned back then. A shoestring operation we were!.
Enjoyed the video. That right end seed box was empty for some time so you may have did some 3 row planting. You likely know but that is what they call a plate planter. In other words you can change the plates in the seed boxes. The plates laccommodate different seed sizes but the spacing on the plates can also indirectly affect density population as well. The plates and the ratios on the sprockets work jointly together to affect final seed spacingwithin the row. I do like how your planter does not have a gearbox. Our old 494 and 494A models that we used back in the day had gearboxes that were prone to breaking till we started drilling and tapping for a grease zert then no more problems ever. The JD manual was excellent for ours. There were even charts to calculate acreage density based on row width spacing in that manual also.
Just liked and subscribed. We grow a type of red ear indian corn. It does well in our red clay. Grows ten feet tall. I seen your Chore Master video. We have one . ours has the optinal 75 pound cast iron weight that set's above the tire.
You make me feel good I make a lot of mistakes and I have a IH 454 that is kicking the crap out of me trying to fix it and that funnel did that screw in and if so where did you buy it thanks for another great video
That funnel is probably as old as I am. I haven't seen one like it in years. Very handy though. You might try yard sales and auctions. Maybe a good old hardware store.
Hey mate, what’s happening in your part of the world? Haven’t heard from you in a while, missing your interesting videos, hope everything is ok. Regards from Down Under.

Nor can I sir. It's looking like a drought year so it might work out

The rod is broken loose from the plate that sits on the seed in that right hand box.

Glad to have you along. My chore master has half a 35 pound dumbbell for weight. Perhaps could you send pictures of the weight on yours?

I have been busy and forgetful. Other than that we're all good up here.
@@rivervalleyfarm482 Good to hear you’re all fine. Is the corn crop out of the ground yet and how’s it looking?
@@outbackladas I can show that today actually. Look for a short video later today
