I got a double wheel hoe and I use the heck out of it. Swapping out attachments isn’t too bad. It does take a little time. I don’t have the tape layer, so plows one way to dig furrow, then plows the other way to cover. Then if in high season, I’m likely weeding, so there’s another swap. I love the tool and it’s made a huge difference in the garden I can grow.
Welp, I bit the bullet and just ordered 8mil drip tape and fertilizer injector and 1/4 pound of beets seed and a 30 pound bag of 20-20-20!! Thanks Travis and Greg! You guys are my inspiration!
Ok, now you're just showing off! :) I think it's also worth noting, that if you own, or are considering purchasing a double wheel hoe, that they are easily converted to a single wheel hoe configuration with the purchase of a shoulder bolt, conveniently sold by Hoss Tools. The availability of the spreader bars also opens up many configuration possibilities. Good video, helpful to all I think!
@@gardeningwithhoss I guess I should have said that single wheel hoes are also easily changed to doubles with the addition of the Double Wheel Hoe Conversion Kit. Dang, I'll never get my salesman's job at this rate! :)
I need a couple pairs of wheel hoe handles. Are they all similar or will I need to drill holes and find various size bolts and washers and drill bits...Dennis
Well all the Wheel Hoes come with a set of cultivator teeth. Most folks start with the Plow Set and a weeding attachment -- either the Sweeps or one of our Oscillating Hoes.
I would love to see you use the disk attachment!! I watched greg use it Travis but I would like to see why you don’t use it or how you would use it if you’re using the attachment.
We do have a disk attachment, but only use it in certain, specific applications. It would land on that last wheel hoe that is a little more flexible with the setups.
We have a small gas power tiller that we use to get the garden ready. Once ready we use the wheel hoes to keep the weeds out, hill our plants and maintain.
I have five wheel hoes. Four double wheel hoes and one high arch wheel hoe. I have one with the sweeps, one with the little tiller teeth things, the blade one, plows for making furrows and another set of plows on my high arch for hilling. I have five wheel hoes and plan on getting at least four more. Mostly because I have eight kids and they need to be learning how to work hard out in that garden with me! 😁 We watch y’all’s videos every morning! It’s our favorite with our coffee and chocolate milk! 🥰
I know the answer. Tool is easily changed over for another operation for an experienced operator. Dennis. glad to be of assistance ...we having a cloudburst here currently.Local military possibly rolled out already for special ops. Of course it is past time for early morning march. It is 9am.
I bought a high arch wheel hoe a couple weeks ago. Of course, too late this year and for now all I've done is put a few coats of Danish oil on the handles. Look forward to figuring this out next spring mostly on sweet corn.
I'm thinking hard about market gardening and might be purchasing one of these wheel hoes. I just cant decide whether to get the high arch or the double wheel. I really dont think I'll be using drip irrigation because we normally get too much rain as it is, and being so close to the coast, the dirt stays moist even with extended dry periods.
We never dibble directly on top of the tape. If we're using the dibble on buried tape, we always do a double dibble setup for a double row, so that the tape is straddled.
If my plots were farther apart, I could certainly justify that. But with 10' walkways between each plot, I fear the tractor tires would make a mess of my walkways turning around at the end of each plot.
Old Dog new tricks. On your web site, if you want to sell more of your extra merchandise you need to put in a merch. product tab on the header. So people don't have to go to search tab and type in what they want to look at. Just hit the Merch. tab and go and see all your shirts, hats, and everything else you what to sell extra. Keep up the good work on your show and in the garden.
We have an Seeder Attachment for the Wheel Hoe that works in firm, well-prepared soils. And for freshly-tilled soils, we have our stand-alone Garden Seeder. You can see both here: hosstools.com/product-category/garden-seeders/
I often wish you guys had an attachment that will plow a trench but is one solid piece. Much like your two blade plow set except its one implement. Have you guys ever thought of doing something like this? Maybe it could bolt in the back slots of the wheel hoe. Thanks.
We mostly use the stand-alone Garden Seeder, which you see in many of our direct-seeding videos. In this video, we were primarily focused on just the wheel hoe attachments themselves.
@@gardeningwithhoss are you filming today?any more great gardening/ farming info? Just experienced a huge thunderboomer here. Maybe will be raining for a while. I do prefer the gentle rainwater on my crops. Dennis
Off topic: When you ruined the potatoes by putting them in the cold cooler, do you know how cold they got? Was the cooler down in the 30's? Did they freeze?
They didn't freeze, they just had too much moisture. Not sure the actual temp of the fridge, but it was probably close to what any household fridge would be.
I have a buying a wheel hoe in the budget for this year. We are moving to Missouri and I will be planting a decent sized garden. The intention is for personal use and markets. Im not sure what I should get..help... :) I've purchased the majority of seeds from you this year if that helps to see what I need. TY!!
Thank you. So I can use the plow attachment to hill potatoes and corn.. I get it now. I really like the wheel hoe that straddles the corn...just watched that video... but the double seems like a more practical one to start with. Thank you again and Happy New Year!!!
Yes, you can use the plow set on the Double Wheel Hoe to make a furrow or hill potatoes and corn. Most folks start with a Double Wheel Hoe, then maybe add a High Arch down the road.
I appreciate this video. I'm in the market for a wheel hoe for cultivating beets. On a side note I have two tractors so I can leave one set up for tilling and the other for transplanting. I need one more for drip tape. Thanks for sharing this. Also thank you for supporting SHEDWARS21:.
Really missed the Row by Row show this week! Hello morning coffee and a new episode of hoss tools!! Thanks Travis for doing these videos!!
We'll be back next week! I (Travis) was taking a much needed break in the mountains.
@@gardeningwithhossTravis watch your/backside. I heard there are mountain lions out there.Dennis 2:02 2:02
Very good informational video. Planning on reviewing the configurations needed for garden this year.
Lots of good info as always . Thanks Travis .
Thanks Ronnie!
My grandpa had a wheel planter ..you could set the separation and depth, fill it with seed, rock n roll.
Time required for calibration is minimal on these RIGS too! Dennis

I just bought (1) single and (2) double wheel hoes.
I like the idea of not having to change out the attachments also.
thanks Mickey

Whatta ya think today?
How do you figure out what attachments to buy to start out?
Well all the Wheel Hoes come with a set of cultivator teeth. Most folks start with the Plow Set and a weeding attachment -- either the Sweeps or one of our Oscillating Hoes.
@@gardeningwithhoss ok thanks alot
Look at your check book....hahaha

what is the best way to till garden to get it ready to plant.
We have a small gas power tiller that we use to get the garden ready. Once ready we use the wheel hoes to keep the weeds out, hill our plants and maintain.
What is the unit on left of drip tape/layer.dennis no time for capitalization.....😢
looks like a single wheel how with cultivator teeth
Thanks for info travis@@gardeningwithhoss
Ignore the capitalization sentence. makes no sense to me. Dennis
@@gardeningwithhossthanks

Very difficult to adjust after change over???

Just remembered roll out of racks around 4 or 5 am at reville. Or is it reveille.that might be correct spelling....looks sort of correct ...Dennis USN

The High Arch is a great tool for sweet corn! Let us know how you like it next spring.
@@gardeningwithhoss Will do.
I'm thinking hard about market gardening and might be purchasing one of these wheel hoes. I just cant decide whether to get the high arch or the double wheel. I really dont think I'll be using drip irrigation because we normally get too much rain as it is, and being so close to the coast, the dirt stays moist even with extended dry periods.
Thanks for watching.
Good information
Could you show the use of all of them at a later time. Never knew of these tools. Zone 5b.
We have lots of videos on our channel showing them in use.
Just started watching your channel. Got to do some research. Thanks for sharing
Do you ever anticipate trouble with the dibbles messing up or puncturing your drip tape? I get nervous about my tape even when I hoe.
We never dibble directly on top of the tape. If we're using the dibble on buried tape, we always do a double dibble setup for a double row, so that the tape is straddled.
@@gardeningwithhossdouble wheel hoe sounds complicated you have a diagram...
Now you need a small tractor and a 4' tiller. Game changer.
If my plots were farther apart, I could certainly justify that. But with 10' walkways between each plot, I fear the tractor tires would make a mess of my walkways turning around at the end of each plot.

Do they make one that is for seating seeds like beans and corn

Haven't ever considered it, but not a bad idea.
I like to know where I can find them

You did leave out the best small-to-intermediate garden seeder on the market...I will toot your horn for you; I do love my Hoss Seeder...
We sure did! Glad you love the Seeder!
Hi am in Kenya and I would love to get a double wheel how
you can order from the website and go through international shipping at check out
www.hosstools.com
How do I order one of these to set up?
www.hosstools.com
And guys this south Texas German boy needs some mammoth dill seed I normally plant a few rows, I use it to pickle my cucumbers
We'll keep our eye out!
i didn't see the seeder in your arsenal. I assume it would be on a single wheel hoe but could it be mounted on a double wheel hoe?
We mostly use the stand-alone Garden Seeder, which you see in many of our direct-seeding videos. In this video, we were primarily focused on just the wheel hoe attachments themselves.
You need one more for the seeder.
Ran out of table room! 😂
I thot you had/a/12 inch oscillator. Send me one. Where do i send/the money dennis

"I like to have all the wheel hoes in different setups because..... It's our company that makes the best ones, wouldn't you?"
Can't argue with that!

Most folks find that the Double Wheel Hoe is the best for starters. Then you can add to the arsenal later if you need to do so.

Old tools marketed. These small wheels and plows are all over rural areas , bot without the handles. Lol
How much money is sitting on that table?
Not much considering how much food we've been able to grow with what's sitting on that table.
@@gardeningwithhossnot much....
How long has Hoss been making wheel hoes
Since 2009
