Jang Seeder vs Earthway

[@JasenWoodworth]

So basically a Jang video. Thought you'd show some side-by-side germination/spacing comparisons. But you just tossed earthway aside at the beginning lol

[@brentonholmes6860]

He tossed it away because it’s a POS

[@jackgraham3393]

I use the Earthway and the Hoss seeders. The Earthway is setup to be used behind one of the garden tractors. It is used mainly for the larger seeds, I.e., peas ,beans , corn, etc. Was not quite satisfied using it with small seeds, so bought the Hoss for that. At this point it is still a push model, one of these days will build the framework to put it behind the garden tractor too. With the Earthway have found it works best if tilted slightly to the right as you are planting. (think the hitch gives it a five degree tilt) as a side note all my small seeds are pelleted. Am a much smaller grower than yourself. Biggest selling item for me is beets. Keep putting out the great information you do.

[@rossr277]

Did you have good luck with hoss for smaller seeds?

[@williamlockhart5031]

Buddy, you crack me up with your corrections. My wife just turned me on to your videos and she was spot on! They are informative, packed full of education and fun! I am just getting ready to start what you are doing, so keep the videos coming and I will keep liking and sharing!

[@JoshSattinFarming]

Thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you have been enjoying the videos. Thanks for watching!

[@D-H-D]

Yeh ditto, great work Josh. Clear and concise.

[@MikeV607]

I have a large (2500 sq.ft.) garden and I quite like my Earthway seeder. Comparing the Earthway to the Jang is like comparing apples and oranges. The Jang is more machine, but at about $500 vs. $120 for the Earthway, it should be! The Jang is perhaps a great investment for a market garden but not so much for the home garden.

[@ScarletKnightmare]

"9 rows, it always works out even for me." Odd.

[@jnabil84]

As others have said, why so little about the Earthway? Farming is pretty brutal with the low profit and these decisions about expensive tools can become pretty stressful. Wish you had done a review on the Earthway even half of what you did on the Jang. As we know, most beginning farmers start with the Earthway of necessity though of course we all would prefer the Jang.

[@jackspatch14]

My Jang is coming this week! Stoked, gonna help me loads this season

[@portiaholliday8741]

The Jang is nice bc the Hopper can be removed and it is possible to plant in tight spaces by not having to roll the "bicycle". Curtis was nice to introduce the Jang to use.

[@sunkisshomesteadgardens9997]

Nice video explaining how to the hang. Well done

[@II-gj7vq]

It's so very cool I was wondering how you got everything so perfect the seeder really is amazing

[@neilcalliou896]

Awesome vid man! I was bent on the jp 5 but after seeing this. 1 is good enough, for now.

[@JoshSattinFarming]

Yeah, I love the JP-1!

[@oby-1607]

Great review. Solid and to the point. Thank you as I have been looking at the Jang.

[@ranchoraccolto]

very cool i have been doing lots of transplant lately, the rocket i just trow on the soil and hope for the best so far have had great spacing... but i will save up money to buy the good seeder from the beginning

[@JesusFan]

Wow that saves you a lot of time and effort!

[@brookebeach5212]

Thank you so much for the comparison and information!

[@jamesallen5223]

so expensive but looks worth it. Currently using the Earthway. Great until its raining out. The jang looks a little more precise too.

[@JoshSattinFarming]

The Jang is amazing! Highly recommend!

[@reelman243]

I went with the Hoss seeder, MUCH easier to deal with

[@guilhermecoelho3216]

Hey Josh, apreciate your work very much! Which roller do you use for onions? And do you need to thin carrtots with the XY-24? Thank you

[@jeanlauzon3890]

I was wondering if you show in an another video the results (the spacing for ex). It seem it is a problem for garden seeders : sometimes irregular planting, lot of space. Tks.

[@k.p.1139]

This is what I have been looking for! Looking at the different vendors, it hard to see what comes in the box. Are the rollers all sold separately, or do you get at least a couple in the box?

[@frankirwin2377]

Like your review of the seeders Josh!

[@chestnutplanter]

Looks like people have made 3D printable roller models for anyone with access to a 3D printer. Thinking about picking up a Jang.

[@merrittfarms6246]

My TD1 had terrible singulation when I planted pumpkins with it. I’m wondering if it was a brush setting or user error. Was so frustrating. Plus, I had to drill my own holes for pumpkin seeds.

[@Grognarthebarb]

Was really thinking of making a 3d printed open source roller seeder like this.

[@hazardpatch2129]

Such a cool demo vid thanks for sharing 👍💖😊

[@trentpatterson2821]

Love watching your videos Josh! I have been looking at seeders in Aus and there seems to be a lot more multi instead of single point. What is the main reason you use a single if multi?

[@tompowell6723]

Did you spend 2 seconds on the Earthway?

[@viktur54]

Great planter! Like! 👍 I also made myself a corn seeder, but with a disc seeding unit. You can see her work on my channel. I really appreciate your opinion about her.

[@wendyletts1189]

I am using the earthway. It seems to work fine with the larger seeds such as beets and corn. I am struggling with the finer seeds. If the hopper only has one package, for example, carrots, the disc has a hard time picking them up. Also, my lettuce and carrots do not come up! Do you have any advice?

[@D-H-D]

What's your thoughts on minimum bed length to make thé Jane viable?

[@kimgilbertsen8216]

Does the Jang cover up the seeds properly or do you have to go back with the back of a light rake, etc?

[@funkidslearning9646]

The thing is I bought one B1000 and I planted Asian corn seeds but they looked like smaller seed sizes than sweets corns,so it made them drop double every move... How can I solve that problem? Big holes but smaller seeds..

[@jtbrunton]

For the cost, wouldn't the Hoss be a better value?

[@jonathanhicks3342]

Kinda what I wondering and there made in the USA 🇺🇸

[@cpnotill9264]

@@jonathanhicks3342 Looking at the Hoss but currently not in stock. I would like to support made in US.......👍🌱

[@chrisshepherd8708]

Which Jang wheel have you found that does the best for beets?

[@johnnylamuelo2102]

Yo Like the video, how do you address the watering of seeded beds with the wobblers? I like the wobblers but currently I use T-tape, but I dislike constantly having to replace the plastic lines.

[@JoshSattinFarming]

I'm not sure I completely understand your question. The Wobblers are awesome. If you are asking about watering direct seeded crops, they work well if you get the coverage right and put out water often enough.

[@johnnylamuelo2102]

@@JoshSattinFarming thanks, just watching your video on cucumber transplant. Great job and thanks for your reply.

[@rossr277]

How does the Jang do with fine seeds like carrots and lettuce verses the Earthway?

[@browntownorganics2172]

The Jang seems so intimidating to me Not the mechanical part but all the ratios and stuff. Any advice? I use an Earthway.

[@JoshSattinFarming]

I share all of the ratios that I use in the video. There is a link in the description of the video for more recommended settings. Nothing wrong with the Earthway. It's a solid seeder.

[@TommyRyan]

Have you compared the Jang TD-1 to the JP-1? What reasons would you pay more for the TD-1. It claims less seed waste and thinning.

[@TommyRyan]

As I read more, looks like TD-1 is for the larger seeds like corn, beans and pumpkin.

[@javalearner4227]

I want to plant mustard seeds, at 26 inches, (two seeds one drop). Will Jang seeder help?

[@matprather5833]

You mentioned growing sorrel, do you grow it as cut and come again all season or is it one or few cuts and need to secession plant?

[@matprather5833]

Another comment for anyone to find it useful: I ordered a roller for peas and the roller was good but the peas are somewhat square-ish and would get clogged in the hopper so using the Jang for peas didn't work for me.

[@JoshSattinFarming]

I got several cuts off of it last year. It is technically a perennial, but I grow it as an annual.

[@JoshSattinFarming]

I don't grow peas, but the Earthway is supposed to handle peas pretty well.

[@matprather5833]

Thanks for the response! Do you plant it pretty close together or give it space to grow? This is my first year growing it and have only seen people grow it their gardens with just a few individual plants and harvesting leaves as they needed.

[@JoshSattinFarming]

I grow it pretty close together like a baby green. If you want bigger leaves then grow it further apart. I still have a bunch of experimenting to do with it this season. It's a tasty green.

[@christiensgarden3325]

Great video...don’t happen to have a coupon code? ... cuz I really want to buy it but I will have to save money...

[@dindanurainipertiwi6262]

👍👍

[@annettehillison5255]

Is there a seeder for doing pumpkins?

[@articmars1]

Honestly i priced some of those seeders and for the same price i can get a gas powered one. Does the same thing with less wear and tear on my body. And no i am not worried about the climate. I will take gas powered over manual any day. If the big guys are so worried about the weather then they to ground their planes.

[@steveh365]

No side marker to mark the next row.... Like the Earthway..? That's a MUST for me... I do sweetcorn, marker keeps me at the right width for my Troybilt tiller to go between the rows later for cultivating and hilling... $500 with a few rollers is a bit much.. I do consider it the Cadillac, but I'm a Chevy Guy..... just saying.. Nice Video tho dude..!

[@guillaumerusso3780]

Jang does have a marker, you have to pay extra for it though... But it isnt a Cadillac, in Europe we have another one, called the 'Ebra', its really a great seeder, but twice the price of the Jang!

[@JMo268]

Do you use pelleted seed?

[@deliastanley3921]

You’re the best, thanks 😃

[@mffarms2174]

Great Video as always! Looking to buy one of these seeders, Very informative. Thanks!

[@jcdesignsandboat-works8290]

For the price of the Jang it should include plates.

[@gardener2.054]

Does somebody knows a seeder which is bigger and can do multiple rows or a entirely bed ?

[@donewelle4177]

How discriptive are the instructions

[@marklugo6002]

Jang vs. Earthway? Earthway makes appearance, never used to compare?

[@mikebayliss8598]

Twice that price the earthway in UK

[@anthonyhawk7484]

Its 169 now

[@ourhomesteadjourney1775]

I have the earth way and I hate it with a passion. It’s not smooth and seeds pop out all over the place. It’s an expensive piece of crap. I wish I would have saved up and bought a Jang. Oh well. The Jang will be my next seeder.

[@Detroit-gx5nd]

Agreed earth way one is not accurate

[@ptrain9020]

I have the jang also, but I have a question. At what depth is the furrow opener set at so that you don't bury the seeds too far down. Seeds like carrots cannot be buried that far down or they won't have enough energy to reach the top.

[@JoshSattinFarming]

I have no idea what the depth setting is set at on my Jang. I am using the factory settings, whatever that is. It seems to work really well.

[@sooocheesy]

I didn't see any Cedars in this video

[@charabotte1]

you can't adjsut seed depth with the JAng !

[@jonescreekfarm9084]

Help! My rows are never even. How do you start your rows? I see the string but how do you measure the stakes at each end? I’m brand new and I could really use some pointers.

[@JoshSattinFarming]

[@johnrodgers3751]

Those are sprockets not gears. Gears mesh. It’s chain driven not gear driven

[@buddha65281]

too expensive and too damn confusing. This sounds ridiculous, seeding should be simple... for years farmers have just thrown seed and it works perfectly.. thanks or giving props to Earthway..

[@artietournet1563]

It’s really not all that complicated, but the main reason to use it is that you don’t waste so much seed, and you do far less if any thinning

[@sifwawostephen1826]

😂you really don't like the earthway...literally tossed it out of the way

[@Полуалигархвпорваныхштанах]

+++++++++++++

[@mikedunston3479]

Over priced and over rated

[@18deadmonkeys]

Good god, your beds are so pristine. Please tell me at least your sock drawer is a mess. I use the Earthway seeder, but my beds are very rocky and often times have lots of dead grass clumps to stop the furrow. To deal with that, I drag my furrows with a hoe, raise the furrow on the seeder, and use it to drop the seeds, cover, and tamp. A bit of extra effort until I get that new Jang that's on my wish list.
