Seed Plates

$699

We have pre-drilled and blank, customizable Seed Plates that fit our Garden Seeder. Our Seed Plates are made of durable, machinable plastic that makes them easy to customize for your exact planting needs. USA MADE!

Description

The Seed Plates fit inside the hopper for the Hoss Garden Seeder. We offer 10 pre-drilled plates, three different thicknesses of blank, customizable plates, and a metal drill template for drilling equally spaced holes in the blank plates.

Seed Plates are made with machinable plastic that is easy to drill for customizing plates. Seed size can vary depending on variety, so we always recommend calibrating the hole size to match the seed being planted. Holes should be large enough so that the seed can sit flat in the hole without touching the edges of the hole. If the hole is too large, multiple Seeds will be planted at a time and this will also increase the likelihood that the seeder will jam during use.

Our 10 pre-drilled plates with corresponding thickness, hole spacing, and suggested crops are listed below.

Pre-Drilled Seed Plates:

  • #1 - broccoli, cabbage, turnips, mustard, and other fine Seeds (8 holes, 3/32” thick)
  • #2 - onion, small coated Seeds (6 holes, 3/32” thick)
  • #3 - okra, pelleted: carrots, lettuce, chard, and beets (6 holes, 3/16” thick)
  • #4 - small sweet corn, popcorn (4 holes, 3/16” thick)
  • #5 - small peas and beans (6 holes, 1/4” thick)
  • #6 - medium beans, peas, large sweet corn, field corn (4 holes, 1/4” thick)
  • #7 - radish, leek, asparagus, spinach (6 holes, 3/32” thick)
  • #8 - cucumber, watermelon (2 holes, 3/32” thick)
  • #9 - butterbeans, lima beans (2 holes, 3/16” thick)
  • #10 - squash, pumpkin (1 hole, 3/16” thick)

Blank, Customizable Plates:

  • 3/32” thickness
  • 3/16” thickness
  • 1/4" thickness

Metal Drill Template

The Metal Drill Template allows you to drill custom hole configurations in our blank seed plates. This tool will ensure that the drilled holes are equally spaced. Use a small drill bit to mark the locations of the holes, then drill the holes to the desired size for the seed being planted.

Sizes for most

The seed plates have holes that should match seed size for correct spacing. Triedvthe corn plate and had some doubles and one stretch with no seed. I was using Hoss seed and it should have been consistent. Pretty close to what it should have been. I bought too late for much else to be planted.

Well kinda interesting!

I just received my Hoss planter and it appears well built and assembly was easy. Upon opening all of the packages that came with the planter I noticed some of the seed plates appear to be missing specifically plates 1-6. I called Hoss and the additional seed plates are on the way via the mail, so no big deal. The instruction manual could use some additional clarification.
