What is a Hand Cultivator?

Seed2Plant hand cultivator with a light weight design is made to help ease digging up the soil and breaking harder soil particles for better aeration. The Hand cultivator has a handle with three tines attached at the heads. The tines give a rake-like appearance in the head. The tines have equal length and are attached to the handle in the middle.

How to Use Hand Cultivator

1. Wear your gardening gloves. Before using any gardening tool, it is important to wear safety gloves to protect hands against blisters.
2. To create rows for planting seeds. Make use of the cultivator to draw lines across the garden to mark rows to make the vegetable and plant beds. Ensure proper spacing between rows for air circulation between stems.
3. To break/ loosen/ turn the soil. To turn or loosen the soil, use the cultivator in a chopping motion along the sowing row created to break any hard soil particles. Continue breaking until the soil is loose and soft.
4. For pulling the weeds. Cultivator can be used to remove weeds from the roots. To do so, soften the soil as mentioned in step 3. Dig the cultivator blade into the soil to at least 2 inches so that it could get hold of the roots as well. Once the weed roots are located carefully pull them out and discard elsewhere. It is important to prevent weed growths around cultivated land as it prevents healthy growth of the plants.
