Finger Weeder, 13" (340mm)
13" Finger Weeder
The Steketee Finger Weeder is an entirely new innovation in the challenging practice of inner-row mechanical weeding.
The Finger Weeder is specially designed to control small and just emerging weeds. It consists of a turning disc with flexible rubber fingers or brush fingers on it.
How it works: The rubber fingers turn in between the crop row, driven by the steel fingers, dislodging small weeds. Ball-bearing construction ensures trouble free operation. Depth and width adjustments are infinite.
Ideal for use in well established brassicas like broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage. The Finger Weeder is suitable for weeding at typical cultivation speeds.
Standard size Finger Weeder: 13-inch (340 mm) - for row spacings as close as 12-inches
Weighs about 8 lbs
