Use seed supplier's information to calculate seed size in seeds/kg or seeds/lb.

IMPORTANT: The proper vacuum level must be calculated for each peanut variety. Obtain size in seeds/kg or seeds/lb by dividing the number of seeds in the bag by the weight of the bag.

EXAMPLE: If there are 1760 seeds/kg (800 seeds/lb), according to the chart, vacuum level should be set at 11 in. when using Large Edible-Bean Disk for Runner Peanuts or 8 in. when using Virginia Peanut Disk.
