These old planters as you call them are still in production today. They are made in Albany, Ga, USA. You can still buy the plates or any part you need. Covington's website shows you where the nearest dealer is for your location. You can buy them already setup on the cultivator in a 1 row or a 2 row setup complete.

Just shows old doesn't mean obsolete. God bless!

Awesome to see ol school still growing farms

I Love the continuity and the history in your land Danny, your Daddy & Granddad, Heck ALL your ancestors must be so proud of you.

Yet another testament that 'cause it's old (like me and you), doesn't mean it's down for the count. :) I like it!!!

Nice planter! Those things are amazing machines! And they sure are a life saver! I used to have a old double row John Deere from the 50’s

Very nice Danny. So glad you have all of that wonderful equipment to use to be able to feed yourself and Wanda !!!

The time savings is amazing. I can see how important that would be for gardens bigger than mine. And my bendover isn't what it used to be. Love it.

You make it look so easy.

I LOVE LOVE THESE VIDEOS !! You guys are so good! I was just wondering how to get a close-up and BAM there it is. Thank you so much, Wanda and Danny. I know most people are not going to get excited about these things, but I do. Geeze I wished you lived closer to North Canton :( Oh, the Music was perfect, just perfect. I am so glad that this OLD farmgirl never got the farm out of me. God Bless you two and your family and friends.

Awesome. What a time saver.

Amazing how old style equipment gets it so right..well done guys fans from Australia..:)

Awesome footage of the disk opener and the chain covering the seed behind it!

Thanks Hoss Tools. We love using our seeder and two wheel hoes.

We like our FUNCTIONAL HEIRLOOMS :) & We enjoyed your video :) Have A blessed week :)

Nice planter

I like your planter Danny and pretty smart making 2 pieces of equipment out of one. We sow our seed by hand but could see how much time we could save by using a planter like that. I like the history that goes along with old history and the fact they are made good. Y'all have a Blessed Day!

I just love this. Thank you for sharing !

i could sit and listen to that planter all day long. I wonder if you could find the extra seed plates somewhere.

Thanks Wanda did a great job choosing it. So glad you got home safe. Cant wait till we see you again.

I've got a 2 row planter. One of the best peace of equipment of bought.

Good morning. I hope you have a wonderfully blessed day.

Great video, thanks for sharing. That looks like a big time saver and back saver. :)

Nice Planter could you do one with more info on setting up the Fertilizer hopper and the way to lay off the rows (New to Farming) Thanks

Danny , do you have a side dresser would love to see how it is setup on you plow.

I prefer older equipment. It’s easier to work on, can still get parts for it if needed and I like the looks of it too.

Happy planting

I'm with you on the Covington Planters. I'm also with you on the opinion that TRACTOR is not a dirty word!

People better hold on to their gardening/farming equipment.

If I've said it once I've said it a million times If it ain't broke don't fix it!Good deal Danny

Miah Crosby Thats our motto here to. Thanks

I wonder what it would take to have a new plate made for it.

Oh to plant in the dirt. I'm heading out to the raised beds and pots. 💜

thanks

Cheers y'all

Morning. Waving as you go down the row. Lol.

Found some seed plates on ebay for a Covington seed planter.

I can so relate to the "decades old" . But it's true enough, if it was good then, it's better now.

Love the video--here where I live in Highland county Ohio--I see some many old unused farm equipment thats still good and usable just going to waste, it makes me sick too as I was raised to be frugal and take care of what God gives you but seems the new generation wants to discard everything and constantly buy new this or that--what a waste. God bless.

Im trying to find the playlist of your equipment but cant find it. Im wanting to see how you measure and setup your rows for single row planting with the tractor??

Very frosty

Man ive got to get me some of them tools

A Covington planter

Very informative! Looks pretty handy. 👍

I am lucky enough to have a horse drawn seeder and hay mower!!! I have a smaller seeder like your Hoss that I have used for nearly 40 yrs and it sure saves my back!!!! I have one box bed and its such a job to keep weeded, but I also put hoops on it for winter which is nice. I will keep tilling and rowing the rest of the gardens tho!!! Weeds I have to hand pull go to the rabbits and chickens.

This is off topic, but from someone who has foot problems, what shoes/ boots help you do your work without aching sore feet? They have to be comfortable yet give support given the kind of work you do don’t they?

Awesome job Danny, :-)

what kind of fertilizer do you use?

I bought the Covington one row when I retired. At first I was about ready to sell it for scrap. But now that I figured it out I wouldn't trade it. That corn shovel pushes the rocks out the way, the double disc opener works great even with a little trash still on the ground, and the presser wheel works like a champ. I've got plates for darn near everything and the sprockets to regulate the in row spacing. I have a cotton can but I've never used it. This year I gave up the greenhouse work and just plant in field. Any tips on the cotton can?.Will it plant turnips and mustard? Thanks for this video. Everyday is a school day.
