Suggested tilling patterns
When preparing a seedbed, go over the same path twice in
the first row, then overlap one-half the tiller width on the
rest of the passes. See Fig. 5-5.
When finished in one direction, make a second pass at a
right angle as shown in Fig. 5-6. Overlap each pass for the
best results (in very hard ground it may take three or four
passes to thoroughly pulverize the soil).
•
•
If the garden size will not permit lengthwise and then
crosswise tilling, overlap the first passes by one-half a tiller
width, followed by successive passes at one-quarter width
See Fig. 5-7.
With planning, you can allow enough room between rows
to cultivate. See Fig. 5-8. Leave room for the hood width,
plus enough extra room for future plant growth.
