			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Rotary cultivator" href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-3542829-10591275?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmantis.com%2Faffiliate%2Fproduct.asp%3Fid%3D1252&amp;cjsku=7270-15-03" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img class="alignleft" style="border: 0pt none; margin: 3px 12px;" src="http://mantis.com/global/products_1/tiller_4gas.jpg" border="0" alt="Assembled Mantis 4-Cycle Honda-Powered Tiller" width="122" height="187" align="left" /></a><img src="http://www.awltovhc.com/image-3542829-10591275" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" />When you are growing big crop of potatoes you can&#8217;t do without good <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-3542829-10591275?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmantis.com%2Faffiliate%2Fproduct.asp%3Fid%3D1252&#038;cjsku=7270-15-03" rel='nofollow' >rotary cultivator</a>. Digging is a job that few gardeners, especially those new to gardening, really enjoy. Almost everyone looks for the easy way out to avoid all that back breaking effort, and for most jobs. Fortunately, a rotary powered cultivator is the answer.<br />
Using <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-3542829-10591275?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmantis.com%2Faffiliate%2Fproduct.asp%3Fid%3D1252&#038;cjsku=7270-15-03" rel='nofollow' >rotary cultivator</a> it won&#8217;t do the double digging where you will be loosening the <a href="http://www.growingpotatos.org/soil-for-growing-potatoes/">soil</a> to a depth of 18in (45cm) and it can be a great boon.<br />
But before explorering at what a rotary cultivator can do to make life easier in the garden, perhaps it&#8217;s worth talking about what could be a drawback — the price. You&#8217;ll have to pay round sum for a petrol powered machine that can cultivate deeply.<br />
Moreover if your soil is heavy you&#8217;ll need to pay a great deal more for a rotary cultivator which is sufficiently powerful to go down deep. If you just have a small garden, forget it, it just isn&#8217;t worth the money.</p>
<p><strong>There are two alternatives.</strong></p>
<p>The first one is hiring one from a hire shop and this will give you the chance to get a strong powerful machine on the few days when you need it. The advantage is that there is no need to worry about maintenance. Disadvantage is that you should every time get it at home.  You may need an estate car.</p>
<p>The other alternative is to get together with neighbors or get your gardening club or allotment society to buy one you can all share.This again will help you get a good rotary cultivator at a reasonable price.<br />
Now, what it can do for you. This depends on the cultivator you buy. The best rotary cultivator will dig over to a depth of about l0 in (25cm) by breaking up the soil into small granules and mixing them up.</p>
<p>You can distribute your compost on the surface and it will be interfusion with the soil more evenly than you could do it with a fork. Set to cultivate lightly it acts more as a hoe and is ideal for dealing with low weed growth amongs tpotato plants.</p>

A lot of tools are available that can make weeding both an easy and an enjoyable activity.</p>
<ol>
<li>A garden fork or a digging fork is one of weeding removal tools. The tool has short tines that are used for loosening and turning <a href="http://www.growingpotatos.org/soil-for-growing-potatoes/">soil</a>.  With this weeding tool you remove weeds without cutting their roots.</li>
<li>To <a href="https://members.cj.com/member/2302486/publisher/offers/gethtml.do?crumbTrail=1250566410103&#038;reload=1&#038;showURLLink=true&#038;adId=10677151&#038;adId=10680757&#038;adId=10680762&#038;adId=10677152&#038;adId=10680760&#038;adId=10686440&#038;adId=10682440&#038;adId=10677154&#038;websiteId=3542829#null" rel='nofollow' >weed</a> amongst other plants, the border fork is used which has thinner times with short closer-spaced tines. For removing weeds like dandelion which has taproots fulcrum weeder is very effective as it has a long thin handle and a split tip. It is also effective in removing fibrous roots of weeds like ferns and marigold.</li>
<li>The Cape Cod weeder has a scraping head, triangular in shape and is also used in weeding activities. The L-shaped blade is very effective since it is able to scrape the bottom parallel to the ground.</li>
<li>Cultivators are large machinery used to plant or remove weeds while aerating the soil soon after the crops have sprouted. Closely related to the cultivator is the harrow tool. It tool is effective in cultivating the soil surface.<br />
At the same time cultivators can be used to create shallow trenches for <a href="https://members.cj.com/member/2302486/publisher/offers/gethtml.do?crumbTrail=1250566410103&amp;reload=1&amp;showURLLink=true&amp;adId=10677151&amp;adId=10680757&amp;adId=10680762&amp;adId=10677152&amp;adId=10680760&amp;adId=10686440&amp;adId=10682440&amp;adId=10677154&amp;websiteId=3542829#null"><img class="size-full wp-image-330 alignleft" title="weeding-tools" src="http://www.growingpotatos.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/weeding-tools.jpg" alt="weeding-tools" width="115" height="115" align="left" /></a><a href="http://growingpotatos.org">planting</a> bulbs and seeds.<br />
