Neep Weeder

[Jinty Mcginty]

Looking to up my game weeding neeps on ridges
Used to use an old scarifier but now drilling with a 4 row on RTK.
Whats everyone using ,some pictures would be great have front linkage so could go front or back.
Quite willing to modify any kit for the job if anyone has anything kicking about
Thanks

No stayed on a 36" drill just to tie in with wheelings for the tattie job ,a wee bit wasteful but just put them closer together

Scarifier should still work then, no?

 

[Jinty Mcginty]

Yeah was considering that old scarifier fairly buried the weeds .Have a 2 Row which I converted to hydraulic steering with a man on back using a orbital motor and a ram in place of the stabiliser.No a job anyone enjoyed tho !!.
You think a Lilliston would Bury trash as good ?
