We spent most of our evenings this past week in the field hoeing weeds, or pulling them by hand. We ran the cultivator through the field one more time, and may be the last time, as the plants are getting so tall we may damage them by snapping them with the tractor. Every weed is gone. Wishful thinking is that it will stay this way. : )

This past weekend, Jason and Dan spent about 5 hours each hoeing weeds manually and also running our Bed Shaper (turned into a cultivator) through the field for the 2nd time. We were able to drop the S tines deeper, we moved the outside disks about 2 inches wider. This helped us to be able to travel on a gear faster, 2 of 12 on the AC 6080 and have a little less work removing mulch that was pushed up onto the garlic plants. Beds were light and fluffy after finishing with loose soil about 4-5 inches down on top. On Sunday night we received about 1/2" of rain at the farm, which should be making the garlic smile! |
