Has anyone ever used this spreader? If so, would it hold up on the back of a disc? I am looking for a way to plant using “1 implement”, and figured this might be useful on the back of a disc.

Spread seed with disc raised, come back and cover with disc blades straight?

I currently have a Buyer’s Products spreader, that looks very similar to the Moultrie. Can I add the electronic gate to my current spreader?

I've had one about a yr now and like it so far. It should hold up ok behind the disk.

I literally just bought this…heads up, if you have the go wild app, I bought it off of go wild with a 15% coupon on there for 315$ total…saved close to 100$

spreading just seed with it, with care will last a while. fertilizer causes them to gum up and u will strip the plastic sprocket or teeth on the gate. i had metal plates made and found the same metal sprocket. works like a charm

Good to know, thank you!

I have one that is about a year old. I use it on the back of my Mule and so far so good.

I'm in the process of doing the same. I've welded a post on the back of the disk for the spreader, as well as hooks for pulling a drag. I've also cut the pieces to do the same to a 6' tiller. The spreader should hold up fine.

Good to know. I am wanting to get a pull behind cultipack we to attach on back of disc also

I'm looking at that a little differently. I'm not sure how my tractor would handle a cultipacker that far behind the disc. (Mine is a lift-type cultipacker.) That's a heavy implement with a long moment arm. I've got a dealer getting an adapter for mounting 3-point implements on the FEL. That would give a disc or tiller on the back, with a spreader and a drag, and a cultipacker on the front. If I want to play, this would let me use the cultipacker on the front as a crimper, with a no-till drill on the back.

(Ain't it amazing the trouble and cost we will go to for planting a few acres for pine goats and turkey.) But, if you like to play metal fabricator, this is a fun project.

I currently have a 3ph cultipacker, I thought about welding a quick hitch on the back of disc but no way to get it the right height all the time.

I have a buddy who has one of these and he says he plants all his fields with it. They appear to be built much better than the Moultrie. When I have to replace the Moultrie spreader I am going to try this one I believe.

Mully, I like the look of that a lot. Do you have any idea the width it spreads seed

The guy I know with one didnt say. He just told me they plant all their greenfields with the two they have. I would really like to know myself before I buy one. The pic doesnt show but I believe that it has "blinders" that go on the side which make it a "road feeder" but if you take them off like in the pic I feel like it probably spreads much like any spreader.

Their website shows it slings 1.5lbs of corn every 4 seconds.

Update...used this this weekend. Took me a min to figure it out but it worked fantastic on 900lbs of fert and 250lbs of seed. It threw it out about 5-7ft on each side...no issues with it throwing it and hitting me.

wash it off good and hose it down with wd40

Will do already hosed it down but will hit it with some wd40 as well

Go to Oreilly Auto Parts, look for Fluid Film. Silver can with a red top. Use it instead of WD40, it doesn't evaporate like WD40. Make sure you spray between moving parts of the gate, etc.

Fluid film is great for battery terminals.
