I have a fairly large collection of IH Farmall Planter Plates and various related parts, and need help identifying them.
Lustran Seed Plate Chart
Single Drop Sorghum Plates: Single drop plates only allow 1 seed per cell and are thinner than multiple drop plates or a standard corn plate so they require a filler ring to fit tight in the planter bottom. Single drop plates are preferred whenever harvesting sorghum as they will. Lincoln Ag or Lustran plates on their web site list the cell sizes in 64th of an inch in sizes and that way you can acurately tell sizes and Deere did have a complete manual on nothing but plates and seed sizing. Have one but would have to hunt, somebody else might know the book number.
First of all, I have pictures of the particular items I need help identifying and figuring out what it does and what it goes on.
Lustran Planter Plates Cross Reference
Secondly, I typed up a spreadsheet of my planter plates and numbers and colors; and I'd like some help identifying what type seed they are used for. I have both IH and Lustran brand plates.....and 1 other brand (but only a couple of those). I reckon I'd have to figure out how to post the spreadsheet though......maybe as a photo. I'm not sure.
If you guys out there that have more knowledge with these plates would kindly help me out, I'd certainly appreciate it.
