I used the half sweeps closet to the row for the first cultivation so the small plants don't get covered up, wide sweeps on the shanks farther out.I'd rather use a narrow sweep or straight
shovel on the back to scratch out the tire track but not leave a ditch for water to run in.I like for the sweeps to be running about 1 1/2 inch deep that will cut of the weeds but won't disturb the corn roots.Now with my Hines I put round rolling hillers closet to the row,turn them out first time around can get right up to the plants with no damage as it throws the dirt away,2nd time around turn the hillers in so they throw dirt between the rows and hill the corn.
