## Overview

The Earthway 1001-B Precision Garden Seeder is a lightweight, no-assembly-required tool designed for efficient row crop planting. Featuring six precision seed plates and adjustable depth control, it enables fast, consistent planting over large garden areas. Ideal for serious gardeners seeking professional results and time-saving performance.

## Description

An ideal row crop planter, the 1001-B is a tool that takes the guesswork out of planting any row crop. Here is how it works: install one of the precision seed plates that best fits your seed, adjust the depth of planting on the ground opener, and then set your 30 inch long row marker for the desired width. Fill the seed hopper with seeds, then begin pushing in your well-tilled soil— that's it! The results will speak for themselves; when you look at your garden days later and see all the row crops come out of the ground, at the same time, making you the envy of all gardeners who do not have the 1001-B. Standard seed plates included with the 1001-B are 18100 sweet corn, 18101 radish, leeks, spinach, 18102 carrots, lettuce, turnips, 18103 beans, small peas, 18104 jumbo peas, 18105 beets, okra, Swiss chard, and 18111 bits of hemp.

Review: used for over 2000 ft of rows so far. we garden large. good = Very Very fast planting time. I can put in the row as fast as I can walk plus the time to empty and fill the bin with seed and change the planter disk. I did 500 ft of beets in less than 10 minutes from the time I opened the seed package to the time I put the leftover seeds back. Works great for consistent depth and spacing. leaves a nice straight row if you can walk straight. Lots of seed plates to choose from. Bad = finding the correct seed plate may be challenging. for example I often found myself using the next smaller size plate rather than the plate labeled for the seed I was using. I found that using the "beet plate" for beets was double and triple planting my seed, so I went to the next size smaller plate and it worked just fine. so if not careful this can be a Tremendous seed waster. You will over or under plant... but that is the price of speed. expect to thin the row. The seeds would bind under the plate, especially peas, and pop out of the bin rather than go where they were supposed too. I remedied this by spraying armor all car protectant on all the plates and the bin, it made them slick and the seeds no longer would bind behind the seed plate and the side of the bin. Probably any wax type spray would work also, or possibly light kitchen oil... You need to have more seed than you plan to use... when you get down to a hand full of seed in the bin it will no longer feed into the plate consistently and you will have misses. This is a bulk seed planter buying it to plant one small walmart packet of seed at a time will not work well for this set up. Conclusion = when used correctly, on large rows with lots of seed, waxed seed discs and box, proper depth, and garden is tilled well, light and soft and no thick organic matter- finely chopped will be ok but long grasses in the soil will clog the planter. This machine is a 5 star. Without the proper conditions you will have more difficulty with this.
Review: Seeds were jumping out. Very limited use and not so effective in wet soil

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Based upon your experience using the Earthway seeder, what is the smallest size of garden that is practical for this tool?**
A: It really depends on how much time you want to spend planting seeds, my first use was planting 6 rows of sweet corn about 30' long. Probably took me less then 10 minutes to plant so to me it was worth it for even that small amount. I plan to increase the garden size and with this product that isn't going to be a problem.

**Q: What can you do when the seeds get caught and crushed before leaving the hopper?**
A: This is one of the weaknesses of the Earthway seeder, particularly when using small seeds. This is primarily due to the flex in the plastic seed plates. The best fix that I know of is to use a 3 dia. Schedule 40 PVC end cap. Cut off roughly about 1" inch, basically leaving you with a shorter cap. Drill a hole in the center that will just allow a 1/4x20 bolt to slide through. Take out the central bolt holding the seed plate assembly to the seeder and replace it with a 1/4x20 bolt that is 2-1/4 long. The new bolt should pass completely through the seed plate assembly and new cap. Install a wingnut on the end for easy plate removal/replacement but tighten just snug enough to allow the plate to still spin freely.

**Q: will it plant watermelon seed? will it space like 5 ft apart?**
A: Sort of, and no. The only practical and reasonable way to plant on 5' spacing is by hand,, unless one is planting many acres where something far more substantial than a Earthway is called for.

**Q: The sweet corn plate was dropping multiple seeds (sweet corn) at a time. Basically I over planted but still a decent crop. Any suggestions?**
A: I did a trial run on the cement patio.  Corn seeds all came out with proper spacing and no wasted seeds.  Better to plant a little too much than too little.  You may have to waste one or two weeks to see germination.  Only three moving parts: wheel, pulley and the proper seed plate.
