I have never seen perennial peanut, but from the description of your crop and cut, I can picture your JD rake fighting six inch tall stubble for six inch long pieces of thin stems, and having a tough time of it. It would be like me trying to rake six inch long second cut pieces of grass through six inch first cut stubble with rake tines six inches apart. IT JUST AIN"T GONNA HAPPEN! I know that some of your tines are closer than six inches. My rake is probably the same as yours. My tines are in pairs, about three inches apart, with about six inches between pairs. My rake is a few miles away but I believe that it has holes which are not in use that allow for different spacing patterns. If it doesn't have more holes, if I were in your situation I would make some, or adjust the hitch on the tractor and or mower to get your header closer to the ground.
