    At :36 into the video it looked like you were tine weeding a bed with drip tape in it. Are you able to tine weed around drip tape without hurting it or was that clip just taken for demonstration purposes?

    Good question. Yes, this particular tine weeder can weed with drip tape in the field with the proper speed and tension on the tines. This is possible because the tines "float" laterally and don't "grab" the drip tape or the seedlings. If the tines are rigid and don't float, they would likely grab the tape and make a mess of it.
