TILLING

TILLING

HINTS

Soil

conditions

are

important

for

proper

tilling'

The tines

will

not

readily

penetrate

dry,

hard soil.

This

may contribute

to

excessive

bounce

and

diff

icult

handling

of

the

tiller.

Hard soil

should

be

moistened

prior

to tilling.

Extremely

wet soil

will cause

soil

to ball

up

or

clumD.
When

tilling

in the

Fall,

all

vines

and

long

grass

should

be

removed.

This

will

prevent

vines

form

wrapping

around

the

tine

shaft

which

slows

tilling

operation.
The best

method

will be

determined

by

the soil

condition.

In

some

soils,

the

desired

depth

is

obtained

the

first time

over

the

garden.

In other

soils,

the

desired

depth

is obtained

by

going

over

the

garden

two

or

three

times.

In the

latter

case,

the

drag

stake

should

be

raised before

each

succeeding

pass

over

the

garden,

so

the drag bar

is one

This setting

is used

for

can be

achieved

by

raising
