thanks for the input everyone. yeah, i did round it up beforehand but it's been pretty dry lately. i do have a box blade with scarifiers on it, had tried it a little and will try it again.
i saw this cultivator for $279. any thoughts on if this would do the job?

First off I see the product weight of 122 lbs, you will not get the power to your teeth. Those "C" tine teeth are thin and cheap, you will see better results with your box blade IMHO however what I always had problems with was the front teeth digging in and the rear blade being pulled into the ground and dragging along a bunch of unneeded dirt which would be deposited in mounds all along the way. This is why I invented the Jake Rake, you can lift the rear rake out of the way for sub soiling, the solid tubing frame puts the weight where you need it most, plus it is built to stand the test of time. Just something to consider, I am sure you will end up with the best solution. :thumbsup:
