Starter Fertilizer Equipment

[ssss2233]

I'm interested in putting stater fertilizer on my planter using a pop-up in furrow but am having a hard time deciding which tube to use.

Would like some imput on what you are using and if you heard of any problems with any specific tube out there.

In the past I used the starter tubes on the keeton seed firmers on a jd 1760 planter. About 2 times a season I would have something plug the press whels and push the seed firmer against the planter gauge wheel and wear a hole in the fert. tube. Kindof a mess and hassle. Went to the tube that run betwwen the disc openr made by L&D ag and no more problems. They take a while to install, but trouble free after that. The tubes are very similar to the ones called "totally tubular", i think.

I'm using Keetons and their plastic tubes to put on in-furrow fertilizer.  In 3 years I've had a couple of failures from wearing a hole in a fertilizer tube.
