Subject: row crop cultivator


I'm looking at getting a row crop cultivator to help in cleaning up some volunteer corn -- its not bad but I feel it'd be worth going after. This is all Corn on Corn -- but conventional tillage. I see the IH 183s are cheap - will they do the job? Also tell me about the single shank setups -- are they worth the extra $ for what I'd be doing? Basically give me the whole run down cause cultivator selection was done by the previous generation in my operation -- I think they had a old noble with danish tines - 4 x38's -- so its been awhile. All the fields have a good pre out there so if I can do a good job I might actually get by with just the iron pass which would be a significant savings. Are the guide hitches worth it? I'm a pretty decent driver but it sounds like with the hitch its basically like spraying -- which would make it alot less stressful. My planters a 12-30 so I'm thinking a 6 or 12 row -- obviously for a rookie a 6 would be safer but seems like 12s arent alot more and would go alot faster. Any help would be appreciated.
