With the K.U.L.T. Kress fingerweeder you can cultivate within the plant row to reduce manual labor.
The plastic fingers of the KRESS fingerweeder work around the sides of the plant and lift the weeds out. Weeds are controlled in areas not reached by sweeps and knives.
The K.U.L.T. Kress fingerweeders are made with a long lasting proprietary compound with a very reasonable per row cost. Retrofitting to existing cultivators is easily possible.
