Should You Use a Jang or an Earthway Seeder?

[@joemccarthywascorrect6240]

I purchased an Earthway about two weeks ago because I found it in a thrift store for $15.00 - no plates. Ordered a new set of plates,from eathway, so I am into it for about $60. We have a little hobby garden, so that is more than sufficient for our needs. But I will keep looking for a Jang at the thrifts and fleas, too!

no nonsense video.... thanks! Glad I found this... I was feeling an upsale on another video, although I like this person for his experience. Great run down on equipment!

[@MikeV607]

For many of us with large hobby gardens or small market gardens the Earthway seeder works just fine. I feel you need a really large garden or farm to justify a $500~ seeder. There are also a couple of other similar design seeders for under $150.

Thank you…your’s is the best comparison yet.

When I heard there was a less expensive seeder, I got really excited. Now I see why the cost is so different 😅 siiigh. I guess I’ll be getting a Jang.

We actually made this video 2 years ago and are just posting it now. So the prices may vary.

Hey there! Thanks for the info. So on the Jang seeder are there bean and corn and cucumber drums/rollers available for that? Thanks

Ive been pleased with my earthway! But the smallest seed I plant is okra.

[@chainsaw5524]

I tried to plant okra yesterday and my earthway kept failing. The seed kept going behind the seed metering plate and jamming. I was only planting about 120 feet so i just manually planted. Did I do something wrong? or is the earthway simply flimsy plastic crap?

[@bamatractor]

@@chainsaw5524 It needs to be clean, No broken seeds and the seed plate needs to be completely seated. Also with the okra seeds being so round it is easy for a seed to roll under the plate. Also Id say, that I have to lean it to the right to keep the plate covered in seed, especially when it gets low in seed. I hate to call it a cheap peace of plastic, but it is low budget.

[@chainsaw5524]

@@bamatractor Thanks, for your reply. Sorry, but I was verry frustrated. It worked good for sweet corn, but the okra... My seed was clean and round. I will take another look at it and see if I did something wrong. Again. Thanks.

you can't adjsut seed depth with the Jang ! Strangely enough in these videos this issue is never mentionned. The Earthway is much better in that regard

It’s like comparing a Ferrari to a Mazda

Can the Jean be used for planting corn?

[@zaklanfarm]

I haven't heard of people grafting corn.
