Keep less water in tanks.
For best crop stand, planting operators should firmly press
plants into water-filled hole. If plenty of water is used, potted
plants will be sealed and do not need to be covered with soil.
When using starter fertilizer, it needs to be agitated.
Fertilizer is heavier than water and will settle to the bottom of
the tank, resulting in possibly burning or killing the first couple
hundred plants.
For faster planting, operators may put one tray of plants
on their lap.
If soil does not paste to planting wheel, this machine can
also be used on bare soil.
