Looking for a fertilizer/seed spreader. Does anybody know the pros and cons between a pull -behind (wheeled) rotary spreader and a 3pt hitch mounted spreader?
I don't want to try to fertilize or seed 4 or 5 acres with my Scotts SpeedyGreen rotary spreader.
I've looked at a pull behind spreader with a 125 lb capacity at a local farm supply store. They also offer a 175# capacity model, but did not have one on display. I forgot what brand it was, but is seemed to be built ok.
Will a hitch mounted (wheel-less) model throw fertilizer into the back of the tractor? All those nooks and crannies in the back of my 2210's tranny look like good fertilizer catchers.
