If you add the fluted coulters (sp?) in front there are no problems. As to
pricey. You can find used units where cucumbers are raised (i.e. Michigan)
for pickle production. I don't know what the prices are today, I bought mine
about 5 years ago. I paid $1,700.00 for a two row fully loaded.
The precision and singulation is incredible.
I planted 20 acres of Pumpkins and Gourds and didn't have any skips or
double plants.
