Over here in SE MN in the hills if you cultivate the soil the depth you cultivate is on its way to the gulf at the first rain. NO ONE except a few organos cultivate anymore. Allan I've never seen a cultivator that can get the weeds in the row. My neighbor had the brilliant idea to switch to organic a few years ago. He rotary hoes 2X then cultivates 2X. In the last four years with the rains we have had I think he has lost close to a foot of soil on the hills. Then there is the giant ragweed problem.

Spraying always pencils out for me.
