We had a 4 row cyclo wide planter and later a 6 row narrow. If you used medium sized corn seed or bigger (if you could talk dad and gramps into spending the few extra bucks for the big rounds) that cyclo would do just fine, On soybeans , I think we planted at about 6 or 7 miles per hour. We had the pull type but kept the hitch as short as possible. Single rear on the tractor planting with an 856 with a tight little turbo. Sweet whistle all day and half the night. I one night started on 80 acres at 10 p.m. with gentle contour In our area, how good a farmer you were was measued by the straight half or mile long rows. I sat on the front edge of the seat all night long and worked my way sometimes several feet upside the markerto keep those rows straight. Had to wait till sunup to see how I did. Gramps said "Not Bad Kid". That was good enough for me. He did go up in a small plane to check it out later in the season and said it passed inspection. Wow that was pressure. Migraine
