It covers two-pass discing, adjusting disc angle for finish work, using the three-point hitch depth-limiter knob, broadcasting a five-way oat blend, and lightly covering seed without a roller packer. Practical and candid about improvised decisions. Best for deer hunters or rural landowners curious about food-plot workflow with a compact utility tractor.
An owner-operator sharing hands-on impressions from their own rural property, with a lifestyle channel that also covers homebuilding and hunting.
Turn the disc gangs almost straight, front and rear, so it throws dirt lightly instead of cutting aggressively, filling in ruts and furrows for a smoother seed bed.
It raises and lowers the three-point arms and has a catch so the disc cannot sink too deep, letting you disturb only the top soil instead of digging in.
A five-way blend that is about eighty percent oats and wheat, plus rape, Austrian winter peas, and possibly turnips, planted thick and lightly covered.
No, the video shows lightly covering seed with the disc alone when a roller packer is unavailable, though seed to soil contact is less ideal.
