I cultivated a small section with my b tonight. First time using it. I am curious how many people use a b to cultivate with and what shovels your using?

I am 57 years old now. But when I was a lad of about 11-12 years old I used to cultivate a tomato field about 20 acres with a B! It had electric start and I spent a lot of hours on it. It had just standard shovels on it like our corn cultivator that was on our 720 John Deere had.

mine has the big shovels on it. I might put the smaller set on the front to give me a little more room. I took the battery off and have been hand cramming it. the battery blocks your view too much.

I have been cultivating with my B for 12 years. I have 1/2 sweeps in front, full 4" sweeps on the other shanks.
When I was a kid I cultivated 14 acres with a B with electric start and hydraulics. Also plowed (pulled 2-12") and harrowed the 14 acres with the B too. Bob
