I mark my garden with a drag (springtooth harrow) behind a farm tractor. (You"d be suprised how straight I can drive if I try.) Then just pick the appropriate groove for my rows. Seed a lot of sweetcorn with that planter. Used to use a funnel with a hose, hand dropping the seed. Earthway works far better, faster. Easier on my back! Does tend to skip a few hills now and then, as the corse, rough seed sometimes hangs up. (I usually replant in a couple weeks, to extend production season, so not a big problem.) Beans and other seeds feed very smoothly. Spacing could be increased with a little duct tape over a few holes in the seed plate. Oh, I usually have to cover the planted rows with a gently applied hoe. But far easier than hand planting - not perfect, but pretty good, is my evaluation.
