What about the seed treatment?

Has anyone on here been treating their own seed? How do you get along with it, and is it as easy as they say? I had looked at the box to box they sell here on FBN, and it looks pretty plug-and-play.

If anyone has experience with the treatment products they sell on here would be helpful as well.

Thanks in advance.
