And in a world where we no longer call a spade a spade but a multi-purpose topsoil cultivator, we need characters not cardboard cut-outs. |
Sometimes referred to as a hand fork, the cultivator is used for weeding, and as its name implies, for cultivating the soil. |
For flowerbeds, a good hoe or cultivator will be a lot more labor intensive, but probably as effective if you are diligent. |
For small areas or around plants, working the lime into the soil with a spade or cultivator is preferable. |
Cultivation was never done with a plow or a cultivator, but always with a hoe. |
Provide high-quality small-scale tools such as trowel, cultivator, rake, and hoe. |
