I want to plant some benne this year to compliment my dove field. How do you actually plant the seeds? It's way too small for my grain drill or planter to handle. The drill is fine for wheat and oats seed spacing but it would put benne way too close. I have a finger seed meter on the planter.
One guy told me he bought a blank plate for his planter and drilled small divots for the benne seed and spaced it the same as corn...~7" apart on 38" rows. I don't plan to plant a whole lot. Would one of those small had/push planters be the way to go?

Any other words of wisdom from one of you that has planted it?
