3 Point Overseeder for Tractor
A 3 point overseeder for tractor is a specialized implement designed to improve turf health by planting grass seed directly into the soil. These overseeders attach to a tractor’s 3-point hitch and come in various models tailored to different terrain and seeding needs. Overseeding with a 3 point tractor-mounted unit helps repair damaged turf, thicken sparse areas, and introduce resilient grass varieties that withstand pests and weather stress.
Two Seeding Methods
Dimple seeding (Spiked Seeding)
This method creates shallow seed pockets with minimal turf disruption. The Speedseed and Multi-Seeder models use dimple rollers to quickly and evenly distribute seed across large areas. Ideal for maintaining turf without tearing up the surface.
Disc seeding (Slit/Slice Seeding)
Disc overseeding cuts narrow grooves into the soil for deep seed placement. The Overseeder 3D excels in this method, offering precision and high germination rates—perfect for renovation and high-performance turf care.
Speedseed Series
Speedseed dimple turf seeders are designed for speed. It overseeds large areas quickly with minimal impact on the turf. A dimple roller creates seed pockets, delivering seed into the holes. A rear brush follows, ensuring seed is put into the ground, speeding up the turf seeding process. Exceptionally user-friendly, the Speedseed line is adjustable for a range of seed types. Each model features a 1–2 calibrate 3-point hitch allows for quick setup.
Speedseed 1100 – Compact
- Working Width: 1.1 m (1.2 yd)
- Weight: 380 kg (836 lbs)
- Min. HP required: 20
Speedseed 1500 – Medium
- Working Width: 1.5 m (1.6 yd)
- Weight: 468 kg (1030 lbs)
- Min. HP required: 30
Speedseed 2000 – Wide
- Working Width: 2 m (2.2 yd)
- Weight: 591 kg (1300 lbs)
- Min. HP required: 40
Dimple Seeding
The Speedseed line uses Dimple seeding. Thus, it has front rolling spikes that form seed pockets. The spikes help improve seed placement and offer early growth protection. Coverage is consistent. A rear brush then pushes seed in, promoting germination and shielding seed from weather and wildlife. It’s a streamlined dimple overseeding method.
Multi-Seeder Series
The Multi-Seeder 3 point overseeder for tractor is engineered for precision on both flat and uneven terrain. Dual rollers pivot to follow ground contours or lock for level seeding. Redexim’s gearbox system ensures accurate seed rate and size control. Each model features a 1–2 calibrate 3-point hitch allows for quick setup.
Multi-Seeder 1200 – Compact
- Working Width: 1.2 m (1.3 yd)
- Weight: 619 kg (1365 lbs)
- Min. HP required: 25
Multi-Seeder 1600 – Medium
- Working Width: 1.6 m (1.8 yd)
- Weight: 750 kg (1653 lbs)
- Min. HP required: 35
Multi-Seeder 2100 – Wide
- Working Width: 2.1 m (2.3 yd)
- Weight: 922 kg (2033 lbs)
- Min. HP required: 45
Overseeder 3D
The Overseeder 3D is a 3 point overseeder for tractor that uses rugged paired discs to slice grooves into the soil, placing seed deep for optimal germination. It’s especially effective in spring and fall, when slit seeding yields the best results. Single-point adjustment makes calibration easy across seed types. Each model features a 1–2 calibrate 3-point hitch allows for quick setup.
Overseeder 3D 1275 – Compact
- Working Width: 1.2 m (1.3 yd)
- Weight: 698 kg (1539 lbs)
- Min. HP required: 30
Overseeder 3D 1575 LV – Medium
- Working Width: 1.58 m (1.8 yd)
- Weight: 832 kg (1834 lbs) Lightweight version
- Min. HP required: 40
Slit-Seeding
Overseeder 3D uses slit seeding, a.k.a slice/disc seeding. This is a mechanical overseeding technique that deposits seed directly into narrow slits carved into the soil.
It enhances seed-to-soil contact, penetrates beneath the thatch layer, and encourages quicker, more dependable germination. It’s particularly useful for restoring compacted or heavily worn turf.
Compared to other approaches, slit seeding allows for deeper seed placement and superior protection from wind, birds, and surface erosion, making it perfect for golf courses, athletic fields, and areas with frequent foot traffic.
How it works: 3 Point Hitch Overseeder
Each of these Redexim is an overseeder for tractor that connects using a 3-point hitch. It uses three arms: two lower lift arms and one top link. This setup allows the machine to be raised, lowered, and transported with ease.
Redexim models are compatible with both Category 1 and Category 2 hitches.
- Category 1 fits compact and mid-size tractors, typically between 20 and 45 horsepower.
- Category 2 is built for larger tractors, usually 40 to 100 horsepower or more, with stronger components and wider spacing.
Every model in the lineup, including SpeedSeed, Multi-Seeder, and Overseeder 3D, connects quickly and calibrates easily using the 1–2 calibrate 3-point hitch system. Below is a video from Kubota explaining 3 point hitches.
Conclusion: Overseeder for Tractor
A 3 point overseeder for tractor is a key tool for maintaining healthy, resilient turf. It introduces new grass seed into existing lawns to repair damage, thicken thin areas, and improve grass variety for better resistance to pests and weather. Dimple (spiked) and disc (slit) seeding methods ensure strong seed-to-soil contact and root development with minimal disruption.
Redexim machines combine durability and precision to make turf renovation simple. SpeedSeed and Multi-Seeder models use dimple technology to cover large areas or handle uneven terrain. The Overseeder 3D uses disc seeding to place seed deep in the soil, promoting fast germination and strong establishment.
Each model connects using a 1–2 calibrate 3-point hitch for quick setup and consistent performance.
