Yes it did, although the wheel kept locking up every few feet. I did find the problem after I was done. A pea seed somehow got crunched and got under the seed plate causing the wheel to turn harder and lock up every few feet. About as aggravating as my old tractor planters used to be at times.

The garden looks great. Planters are finicky sometimes.

I just put my potatoes in one of the gardens.

I been using drip irrigation last several years. Didn't this time. I'll see how that works out.

Got 1-1/2" rain yesterday and today. This may be last decent rain we get for a while. Usually turns hot and dry in June. The growing May slow down but the peas usually handle drought pretty good. We will see with no irrigation this time.

It has been an unusually dry spring here. I started planting some of my garden on April 13th. Waited until May 5th to plant tomatoes and peppers.
I have been watering almost every day for the last two weeks. We need rain very bad but not much chance for at least another week. Temperature hit 90 today.

Looking at your bottom picture, don't look like you will be hurting for corn.
