Talc Lubricant (P/N: 821-046C)
IMPORTANT!
Great Plains “Ezee Glide” talc is 100% natural talc.
Use only Great Plains “Ezee Glide” brand talc for
optimum seed flow.
“Ezee Glide” Talc lubricant is mandatory for all
seeds, especially treated or inoculated seed.
Recommended usage:
For clean seeds sprinkle (1) one cup of talc per 9 bush-
els of seed. Adjust this rate as necessary so all seeds
become coated while avoiding an accumulation of talc in
the bottom of the hopper.
For seed with excessive treatment, or for humid planting
environments, increase the rate as needed for smooth
meter operation.
!
CAUTION
Thorough mixing of seed and added lubricant is required. DO
NOT use hands or any part of your body to mix talc
lubricant.
Graphite Lubricant (P/N: 821-042C)
IMPORTANT!
For Milo Planting Only
Powdered graphite must be mixed with the milo seed in
combination with talc for proper seed singulation.
Recommended usage:
For clean seeds sprinkle (1) one cup of graphite per 9
bushels of seed.
For seed with excessive treatment, or for humid planting
environments, double or triple graphite rate as needed.
!
CAUTION
Do not use hands or any part of your body to mix graphite
lubricant.
