Tilmor plastic layer is a modular design for laying 3' and 4' plastic and up to two rows of standard drip tape. The innovative design incorporates easy to adjust tire and disc tension. Small growers face unique challenges and often must rely on older equipment that was developed many years ago for mechanized cultivation. This often means farmers are forced to rely on parts that are obsolete, poorly constructed or difficult to find. Our goal is to produce a variety of implements for planting, cultivation, harvest, post-harvest, and more. These implements will be built to last and fully supported by Tilmor, making it easy to find and purchase the equipment you need to maintain your farm.

Dustin and Lydell spend some time going over do's and don'ts of plastic mulch. Do: - Make sure your bed is firm and that your ground is crowned in the middle. - Manage the weeds especially at the edge of the bed. - Mow off/eliminate the weeds and stubble prior to removal. Don't: - Let the hard crusted dirt or fodder into the bed so it punctures the plastic. - Wait to pick up until the next season.
