Hi all,
This is my first time submitting; hope it goes through.
I have had no trouble using Earthway on small-mustard-family seeds SINCE:
I went back to the instructions it came with, after a very unsatisfactory
first pass (seeds getting caught and crunched behind the plate just as Chris
from Wisconsin says)
and found the advice to first put the plate in highly soapy water for a
while, then to let it airdry.
I found that worked perfectly and repeat that once a year.
The residue of the soap is apparently just enough to prevent the problem
with the small-seeded stuff.
Hope this works for others.
Thanks,
Megan Haney
