For owners of Ego Multi-Head Systems (available separately), the compatible Ego Power+ Cultivator Attachment gives you the freedom to churn over topsoil anywhere on your property.
It’s powered by a 56-volt lithium-ion battery. Simply click the attachment into the solid steel shaft and go to work. Heavy-duty steel tines adjust from 8- to 9-1/2-inches. The variable-speed trigger lets you increase the force for digging in denser dirt, then reduce it when working in softer soil.
FAQ
What is the difference between a garden tiller and a cultivator?
A lawn tiller is typically used to break up hard, compacted soil. However, garden cultivators are usually intended to mix up loose soil, allowing gardeners to add fertilizer, compost, etc., to prepare the soil for new planting. In short, lawn tillers are more heavy-duty than garden cultivators (and garden cultivators may be better for more precise work).
What is the difference between a cultivator and a transplanter?
As mentioned above, cultivators are designed to turn the soil. Transplanters, by contrast, are used to move specific plants from one place to another without disturbing the roots. Cultivators are soil-focused and used in soil free of existing plants, whereas transplanters are used for moving existing plants.
Can you till a garden with a cultivator?
It is possible to till a garden without a cultivator. Still, it is exceptionally time-consuming (especially for larger plots of land) and requires hard, back-breaking labor compared to automated cultivators.
