That is the question, and the answer is: it depends. Tillage, or tilling, is the agitation of soil by digging, stirring, and turning over the soil in preparation for growing crops. Garden tilling can be accomplished with hand tools, including shovels or hoes, or with mechanical devices such as rototillers. Commercial farmers recommend cultivation twice a year, in the spring and fall, but home gardeners have mixed opinions.
