I tried to rotavate my garden today, although the ground was reasonably soft the rotivator just wouldn't dig in, it just sort of scratched the surface.
I got my fork and turned the earth over, so it looks like a ploughed field, now the rotivator gets through it.
Is this the only way to do it, I've got a fairly big garden?
Also, I have to stand on the soil when I push the rotivator, surely I'm compacting it all again?
