- Adjustable seed depth, row width. Plate controls how far apart each seed is dropped.
- Cut the time to plant the garden by something like 90%, and no sore back after!
- Negatives
- Need to till the soil
- Must be relatively flat
- Twigs, sticks may be caught in it as you are going through the soil
- Need a good amount of seed, may not work on small sampler packs
- Loss at the end of row, very short rows don’t work well
- Conclusion – We love it so far, waiting to see how germination is!
It’s been a long day so we just decide to do the podcast inside tonight, though we have some background audio from outside our window. We have a set of great calls that really liven up the show. We really do need your calls to the farm phone at 206-202-GOAT or the listener questions show. On tap this week:
- Farm Phone: 206-202-GOAT All about dress out, and poultry in the city, and putting food up

We’ve also added a new feed if you’re new to the show and want to catch up on past episodes. It’s the archive feed listed on the right of the webpage.
Well there’s been some changes since last week. There’s new voices to add to the show, 6 actually! You can hear at least 4 during the show. The ending this week is a little abrupt. After the mixer’s batteries die the batteries on the mp3 recorded died. That brings the show to a rather abrupt end. We were going long anyways, so you must have been saved by the equipment.
