The crumbler is one of the best soil preparation implements period. Pulled behind a disk it breaks up chunks, levels and makes fields appear as if they have been hand raked. However, there is one setback: it picks up baseballs. You can be in the middle of nowhere and find baseballs with this thing as if they were dropped from heaven. In fact, you so pick up so many baseballs by the end of the season it starts to clog things up. The only way to remove them is to burn them out with a torch.
