In the past I've had my rows at 30" or so and have run a Troybuilt down each row. Very time consuming! If cultivating two rows is not feasible, then what spacing is necessary for effective cultivation? Are growing in beds the answer? To me it seems that would defeat the purpose of mechanical weeding. I direct seed most everything except brassicas and the first couple plantings of lettuce.
I plant with a stringline which gets everything pretty organized looking. No curves in the rows. If there is a row inside each tire and they're straight and I drive straight it seems like it would work, in theory.
Maybe it just "looks good on paper". I don't know. I appreciate everyone's input on this topic. I'll post pictures of the tractor either tomorrow or Sunday.
