Find Just the Tiller You Need and Get Your Garden Ready for Spring Planting
If you're looking at seed catalogs and starting seedlings in the winter, chances are you'll need a garden cultivator to make your plans reality. You may need a cultivator, rototiller or garden tiller, depending on whether you're a suburban farmer with a small garden or have a larger plot in a rural area. From small tillers to heavy-duty gas-powered tillers, we have options for every yard.
It's important to find the ideal tiller with the right engine type to prepare the soil, considering your job size, power and fuel needs. Cultivators are primarily used to mix loose soil, especially when adding soil amendments. Tillers are the heavy-duty workers that break up hard soil and get it ready for the cultivator. Both are available as corded and cordless electric models and gas-powered versions. You can find a lighter model for your small flower or vegetable garden or a heavy-duty model with variable tiller widths for bigger jobs.
You can choose from forward- and counter-rotating and counter-oscillating models, as well as almost unlimited accessories. If you love gardening, shopping for the perfect tiller or cultivator is a great start to the season. Lowe's Cultivator and Tiller Buying Guide can help you decide which models make most sense to find the right garden tiller to get you started. If you’re not sure you want to purchase a tiller, Lowe’s offers tillers for rent. Check out our Lowe’s Rental page to see if a tiller rental is available in your area.
