Congratulations to our winner , Caryl fromA Growing Garden . in PA . !
But more about that , here – because I wo n’t allow them get off so easily – this was a cultivator that I really put through a torture trial extraordinaire ( they may never let me test on again ! ) , as New England soil is bouldery , hard and rocky . Did I mention rocky ? Sure , I have a few nick , even a flat tyre ( really ! Although it ’s fixed , a rock and roll just got jammed in between the safety bicycle and the rim , and the air squished out . A quick heart , and it was all right – no puncture – hey – they are material tires !
This part of our garden was fairly useless . Only weeds and invasive plant , and the dogs have pounded the soil into a all in genus Pan playground . It will now be a Modern vegetable garden . Joe challenged me to see if it could chew up the running , invading bamboo , plus a bed full of sting vines like bittersweet and wisteria ( I recognise , we were crazy ! ) . The cultivator did much better than I thought it would , but after about ten moment the vine were just too much , and they wrap around the tine . We had to turn off them out carefully , which was dull . sure as shooting , one would not do this anyway – but I wanted to crowd it .
So , I will admit that I am already a Troy Bilt fan , we now have three tillers in the barn , but the other two are twenty years former . Heavy , hard , repairable , which tiller flake love ( they even have a website just for themselves where they sell backsheesh and parts ) so this tells me that these machines are wildcat , long lived and build to last . When the Tory Bilt team asked me what I wanted , I told them that what I really take was a good , yet not monumental rototiller , as I had plans on pretend a newfangled garden where one had once existed 60 years ago , but never told them that it was was now overgrown with 30 foot tree diagram , grass and heavy clay ground underneath that was rock hard , and full of sway . You know , New England Harlan Fisk Stone walls , and all .
