Ace Planter: A Precision Planter That Beats Monosem and Stanhay with Simplicity
Precision planting doesn't have to come with a hefty price tag. While vacuum seed planters like Monosem and Stanhay promise seed spacing accuracy, their complexity drives up costs—both to buy and maintain. Enter the Original Ace Planter: a low maintenance solution with just three moving parts, designed specifically for coated vegetable seeds like lettuce, onions, beets, and carrots. It delivers exceptional precision at a fraction of the cost.
The Vacuum Planter Problem
Precision vacuum planters excel at seed singulation, but their intricate systems mean higher upfront prices and ongoing repair expenses. For farmers growing coated seeds such as lettuce or beets, those costs can quickly outweigh the benefits. The Original Ace Planter flips the script, offering a much less expensive alternative without sacrificing accuracy.
While Monosem and Stanhay planters are quality machines, their complexity creates challenges:
- Higher initial investment
- More components that can fail or require adjustment
- Increased maintenance time and costs
- Greater technical knowledge required for operation
What Sets the Ace Planter Apart
Unlike vacuum seed planters, the Original Ace Planter uses a simple mechanical system with only three moving parts. Here's why it's a game-changer for vegetable growers:
- No Vacuum Seed Metering: The Ace Planter eliminates pumps and hoses for a design that's far less expensive to buy than precision vacuum planters like Monosem or Stanhay.
- Exceptional Seed Spacing Accuracy: It delivers pinpoint placement for coated seeds—including lettuce, onions, beets, and carrots—rivaling the precision of much pricier options.
- Truly Low Maintenance: With just three moving parts, the Ace Planter dramatically cuts repair costs and downtime compared to complex vacuum systems.

How It Works
The Original Ace Planter's three-part system is all about precision and simplicity: a seed hopper feeds coated seeds to a metering wheel for accurate singulation, then a delivery chute places them at the ideal depth. No vacuum seed metering—just reliable results for vegetable crops.
Remember that proper maintenance is key to optimal performance. We recommend a thorough check before each planting season and replacing the bearings annually to maintain warranty coverage. As always, never use grease or lubricants in the planter, as this can damage components and affect performance.
