    Default International planter plates

    I need some plates for clearfield flowers. Anyone using a international early riser 800 planter or similar and can shoot me a part number would be the recipient of an internet fist bump.

    Slap a bean plate in it, set it down on a concrete slab and see how many fall out in 10’. May not need one.

    Sunflower seeds come in different sizes. My seed guy said all they could get this year were size 4 or 5 which are small ones. My planter has finger pickups instead of plates and it will probably over seed with the small seeds.

    Had this same situation and the fingers kept getting seeds wedged under the arms. Better keep a close eye on things.

    It looks like there wasn't much change from the 800 to the 900 series. Check this link

    Cotton plates will plant them just as good too. Might be easier to get your hands on some of them.

    B, I tried 5 sources this year, as we are setup to run #2s, and the biggest seed I could find was #3. It worked, but I got some doubles. I am ordering plates for the 71s to fit #4s (which are usually easy to come by).
