Mike...From what I can see in the pics it looks really good. We use a Plotmaster and the result behind the implement looks almost identical. Seed drops down in furrows and then cultipacked. Look forward to seeing the field in a couple of weeks after seed comes up.
Thanks guys. I will head back down in a couple weeks and post pics of what comes up. We timed the rain just right.
I only one issue with the firminator. It doesn't like cultipacking in very sandy soil. The farmer disc up a few areas and in a few areas it was like walking on a sand dune at the beach. Really wish I had the 16" cultipackers vs the 9".

I'm understand the "need" to plant but if the farmer is putting in Peanuts why did you plants summer food?
I understand planting is addictive but have you ever witnessed what deer do to the tops of green peanuts? There will be browse marks over the entire field.
We hope the beans will be available after the peanuts are gone plus we need to build up the soil with some nitrogen and compost. We also planned it out to leave half the plot area for a fall blend of brassicas and cereal grains. Trying to give the deer something year round to browse.
Plus, it was good to just get out.
