Planter Ready?

I have not seen any planters out of the shed yet, but that time is coming.  We would like to be planting in two weeks, but that depends a lot on rainfall in that time period. With high population corn it is more important than ever to have an even stand.  Getting that planter ready may be the most important job of the cropping season.  Prairie Farmer says "Make Preseason Planter Prep Job One."  Another article suggests "Planter Prep is Easier with a Small Electric Motor."
