| An alternative to this is hilling up the stem with more soil when it is 10-12 inches tall. |
|
| By hilling the fields shortly after planting, an early season application can refill the soil profile. |
|
| Cultivation and hilling operations will likely be earlier than usual this year to stay ahead of the weeds and provide for early irrigation. |
|
| The process is known as hilling and is done just before the ground is likely to freeze solid. |
|
| Every field had to be hoed for weeds three times, carefully hilling soil around each young stalk. |
|
| Always hoe level rather than hilling soil up around the plants, which peanuts don't like at all. |
|
| Corn plants are in 8-to 9-leaf stages, with hilling complete in most areas. |
|
| Some conservation tillage systems, however beneficial in other cropping systems, are unsuitable for potatoes, which require hilling. |
|
| On an afternoon in March, Loïc Gouzer, a specialist in contemporary art at Christie's New York, attended a hilling session to survey several works that had been secured for an upcoming auction. |
|
| This expedition may involve extreme temperature variations, travel on scree and boulders, as well as very difficult terrain, challenging obstacle and river crossings, side hilling, and bushwhacking. |
|
| However, various composts or manures applied prior to planting may differ significantly in their ability to supply nitrogen through the critical period of high crop N demand following hilling. |
|
| Since the other living mulches were planted after hilling, the time for competition between the living mulches and the crop was reduced and plant development and tuber yields were not affected. |
|
| Proper hilling, avoiding cultivars that set near the soil surface, sufficient moisture to avoid soil cracking and storage in the dark help to control greening. |
|
| Factor in its high-tech features and the all-new S-36 handling package for radically improved side hilling and boon docking, and you have a sled that doesn't just climb mountains. |
|
| Our Mountain Technical Committee, a panel of expert Western riders and dealers, gave Summit sleds the highest scores ever recorded for side hilling, boon docking and overall manoeuvrability after several days of evaluations. |
|
| A ridging plough is used for crops, such as potatoes or scallions, which are grown buried in ridges of soil using a technique called ridging or hilling. |
