The depth cultivator soil loosener is an accessory for the wheel hoe. Work with the depth cultivatorr in vegetable gardens during the growing season to loosen the soil closest to the vegetables. When loosening, the soil is oxygenated, which means that nutrients in the soil are released. These nutrients can otherwise be difficult for plates and vegetables to access. When loosening the soil, it also breaks the capillaries and this means that evaporation is reduced, so the soil holds the liquid better.
