Rotary Hoe
Posted in Garden Antiques on 01/22/2009 06:57 am by adminLooking to Remove some top soil from a patch of grassy area. what should i use?
I'm Looking to recove around 3 inches, or 70mls from the soil. And i'm wondering what tool would be the best. I've looked at Rotary Hoes, and they look handy, but is that what i'd need. Its a small job, so like 6x6m, 36m squared. I'm getting $200 for it, and a rotary hoe, the cheapest, is about $100 for 4 hrs. So it would halve my pay. Or is it easier to do it by hand?
Whoa, you are getting 200 bucks for your top soil? What's it made of? Silver dust?
That small an area would probably be best handled by hand.
Lay out a tarp right next to the area, cut any grass/turf you want to keep by cutting it in strips about a foot wide, cutting underneath it with a sharpened straight shovel and rolling it up jelly roll style.
Set the turf rolls aside. (Don't forget to water those rolls if it doesn't get re-laid promptly!)
Shovel out your top soil onto the tarp for easy dragging to the driveway for whoever is paying that chunk of change for it.
