Last year, was my first year planting any large amount of sweet corn. It turned out OK, but it was really weedy in the rows. I was able to keep the weeds down between rows with my Cub Cultivators.
Recently, I started reading here about harrowing after planting and before the corn comes up. What should I use for this? I was thinking of a drag type harrow made out of some chain link and lumber so it doesn't dig in too deep. Would this be enough to scrape the little weeds off before the corn starts coming up?
I would hate to go too deep with a harrow and dig up my freshly planted corn.
