not saying where, but i found a tiller with the pto pulleys, its not a 3 sided tiller its just with the round top,
going to look at it this weekend,
what would be a good price to pay? it was used about a month ago he says and just some surface rust,
any ideas? |

Some guys start turning the old garden in the fall, then again in the spring. Decomposition of nutrient material only really occurs in the first 6 inches of soil, so tilling deeper is probably not all that productive. BTW, it's really nice to see a younger guy feeling that way about turning and working the soil, shows a lot of maturity, and sense, lol. |

I know most of these guys don't do it but our routine in the spring was to turn under last year's stubble. Wait about 1 week and then go in with the tiller and bust up the clods. |

Rear tiller on a Hydro Garden tractor is the only way to fly once the ground is broke up.
You'll love it. Just don't try and do it in one pass or you will really abuse you tiller.

sound like a fun tile! see lastyear with the rear plow i made my neigbor a garden andthen came in with the walk behind tiller and took me forever to break soil but thats done, with no grass and it alreadybeing plain dirt i assume it will eat it like nothing,
this past summer i tilled 4 gardens at beghining of summer with the yard machine, but its a pain to load it in the dump cart and trailer it down the street so having a tiller will make SOOO much less work! |

We used to use ours to prepare blanket smooth seed beds that you would sink up to your ankles in.
You will want to keep it off previously unbroken ground. It ought to work great with the hydro where you can just creep along and whip up the earth as light as angle food cake. |

You won't find one very easy for $200 in Indiana. |

Just bought one myself for $200 with the PTO pulleys. Thought it was a good deal considering how much i've seen the pto pulleys alone go for on Ebay.

Complete and in good working condition = around $150.00.
Anything less than that is frosting on the cake.
