Quantity = Mix as needed, 1 teaspoon of powdered
graphite for every bushel of seed in the seedbox.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT
use petroleum lubricant on
plastic seed cups. Petroleum will absorb into the
plastic and swell plastic components.
NOTE:
Cleaning seed cups seasonally is often all
that is required to keep seed cups working properly.
Remove seed from seedbox and seed cups. Rinse
each seed cup thoroughly with water spray from a
garden hose. Allow seed cups to air dry completely
before putting seeder back into service.
