Generally I confine my blab to here. That way more people can contribute or tell me I don't know what I'm talking about if that's the case.

I imagine some things are made for your tractor. In practice garden tractors don't weigh enough for serious digging work. A hoe of any power can really move even fairly heavy compacts around or pull them into the hole. Hoe equipped tractors are supposed to also be loader equipped for safety reasons. Small hoes also don't have the depth or reach needed for many jobs. You get to the point where what really needs to be done can't be due to limitations of the equipment or just that a shovel ends up being faster--probably not as fun though. ....
