No-till Planter Closing Wheels - Side by Side

I like trying things, so I put on several different types of closing wheels when I was replacing the rubber tires. Two of the types were unusable in our soil types. I left the remaining 7 kinds on the planter. I replaced most of the rubber tired wheels with SI Distributing's Finger-till wheels. They are kind of expensive, but I do like them overall. They're not always better than all the other types, but probably the best the most often. The Furrow Cruisers and the Mohawks are decent also - and cheaper. The Yetter Poly Twisters weren't available when I did this test. I'd like to try them. Hopefully this is useful to someone, but if not, I had fun anyway.

Nice video. Especially since you were in some damp conditions.

Really appreciate this look at so many different wheels. I’ll be trying out both cast and poly versions of the copperheads, plus yetter twisters on a case planter this year. Will be interesting to see if the conversion to this style of closing will work out for the better. Cheers from SW Iowa

Im thinking about the exact same ones. I am leaning towards the Yetter twisters. We have some corn ground coming out of sod. Have you had a chance to compare the copperhead and yetter?

cool video glad I found this. did you keep track and see if there was any emergence bump from one to another?

[@scottdougherty4251]

Of all the closing wheels which one would you say does the best job?

What kind of disk openers are those? Look like a skil saw blade
