Let's see some of yalls garden tractor cultivator set ups for hilling, side dressing, etc.. I used to have an old David Bradley walk behind years ago, but can't find anything like it now. It was old and about worn out when I got it 30 years ago.

Sorry no picture but Dad had a an old school Craftsman (I think) garden tractor with all the attachments. It had a roughly 13-15 hp Tecumseh engine and about 8 gears. It would pull a stump in low and pass kids on bikes in high! Or at least it seemed that way to me when I was 10.

We never had a garden tractor. Always had a tractor. If I was to ever get a garden tractor it would be a Grillo. https://www.earthtools.com/tractors-grillo-index/

I don’t have a tractor, just an older Troy Bilt Horse rear tine. It does a fine job getting the dirt ready. I am think seriously about ordering a wheel hoe from Hoss Tools

They have some good attachments for cultivating and hilling. Seem like good Ol boys, they have a YouTube channel “row by row Garden Show “ good information on there

I think our next investment is going to be the high arch wheel hoe. Want to have it for the fall garden. I’m gonna let them get back to business as usual before we order one. Travis and Greg are good people.

For those of you wanting one of those 2 wheel push plows, you might want to try out a push plow before you drop that kind of coin on one. My grandparents had one, that my parents wound up with and I wouldn't wish one on my worst enemy. That thing will wear you out in a hurry.

I googled it, thats backing up a little too much on technological advancedment for my preference. Might work good in a small garden with really loose soil.

It'll work your arse off. The way I was shown to run one was to pull it backwards, then push forward, pull back, push forward. Your arms will fall off if you do enough of it.

We have an old IH Cub that's got to be 60 years old. Been restored once and runs like a top.
