I’m considering the purchase of a Celli spader for primary tillage, and especially for cover crop incorporation.  I saw discussion in the market-farming archives regarding spaders a few years back that seemed to indicate Imants spaders do a more thorough job than Celli.  To those folks with Celli spaders, how well do they incorporate a flailed-off cover crop in your soil type?  Do you always find that you have to make a second tillage pass before transplanting, or for seeding?  Has anyone tried to attach a Celli with a secondary power harrow like some of the Imants models have?  Thanks.  Greg York Thanksgiving Farm
