Earthway 1001-B Garden Seeder

The seeder includes six interchangeable seed plates designed to handle a variety of common vegetable seeds, from small carrots and lettuce to larger beans and peas. For very unusual or irregularly shaped seeds, you may need to purchase additional specialized plates separately.

The integrated row marker extends from the side of the unit and creates a visible line in the soil as you push. This allows you to align your next pass perfectly with the previous one, ensuring your rows remain straight and evenly spaced across the entire garden bed.

The 1001-B comes largely pre-assembled, so you can get started almost immediately. You will mostly just need to attach the handle and ensure the seed plate is correctly seated for your specific crop.

Yes, the unit features an adjustable depth gauge that allows you to set the precise planting depth for your specific seeds. This consistency is key to preventing seed rot and ensuring uniform germination across your rows.

Yes, the seeder is designed to perform three tasks in one pass: it opens the furrow, drops the seed, and then uses a chain cover and packer wheel to cover and firm the soil over the seedbed. This ensures good seed-to-soil contact for better growth.

The 1001-B performs best in well-tilled, loose soil. If your garden has significant rocks, heavy clay, or large clumps of sod, you should clear and cultivate the area first, as the precision mechanism requires a relatively smooth seedbed to function accurately.
