Hand cultivators are fast becoming the home gardener’s very best friend. In your choice of wooden- or metal-handled models, these cultivators are replacing the exhaust-spewing, gas-guzzling, noisy, and back-breaking electric or gas-powered rotor-tillers. Once the heavy work is done, put that humongous dinosaur away and keep your lightweight, easy to store cultivator at hand. Unlike the large plows and tillers, these cultivators can refine your garden terrain. The large wheels roll easily through deep soil and uneven terrain, refining the look of your garden and breaking those large clumps into much smaller, more manageable soil. Then the cultivator furrows your seed rows for planting, either with the Earthway Garden Seeder, or by hand. Finally, you can weed and loosen the soil when necessary for better aeration and more economical water usage, which of course means hardier vegetable plants. Once you use one, you will wonder how you ever did without!
