@ShawnJacula Coatings 2000 out of Lloyd sandblasted and painted ours. Did a nice job

@KristjanHebert I’ve always wondered how you go about getting your trucks to show up on my John Deere. Something you can buy and put on them??

@bsproat Went from an 1100 Bourgault to a 1522 Brandt 2 years ago and already wishing we went to the 2000. Would be nice in canola to only make one trip to the trucks and that little extra bit of room in heavy barley would make it just a bit easier for trucks

@ChadMPetracek On year 6 of bio-sul, best decision we’ve made logistically and like the price point. We also float 70% of all our nitrogen in the fall. We haven’t seen any type of yield drag or the nitrogen loss that we were told we would.

@Plantmore1 @KristjanHebert We upgraded to a GSI 2326 last year. Very user friendly and simple. Only advice would be that the rated capacity is much less then they say, due to it being based off of corn and the moisture sensor is only as accurate as you calibrate. Run all of it from your phone essentially

Wondering if anyone has any first hand experience with lsw 1400/30r46 super singles in the central Alberta region. Would be pulling a 66ft bourgault with 7700 tank. Land is quite variable with nasty hills on a few quarters. @GoodyearFarm

Looking into possibly switching drills. Wondering if seedhawk has the ability of shared map coverage to run two drills with sectional control in the same field @VaderstadCanada

[Garrett Acton @Acton00]

Wondering if the X30 has the ability of shared map coverage between two drills so you can run to bourgault drills with sectional control in the same field @BourgaultAg

In the future, my warning to my kids will always be "Do you want to end up like your Uncle Connor?" #dud #illiterate #dimwit
