I bought a JD 7000 4 row planter that the owner used for sweet corn. It has Kinze finger pickups on each box.
I want to use the planter to plant about 25 acres of beans for food plots this Spring.
Will the finger pickups work for beans or is there a different plate I can buy to make it work with beans?
I've been trying to read up on them, but the information is all over. I've heard to take the corn population x5, I've heard they won't work very well for beans, I've heard there are other options available. I'm trying to find what would work best without paying $600 for new bean meters just to plant food plots.
I think I'll have to clean them up a bit, but overall, they're in good shape and the planter was kept inside.
Thanks in advance!
