Default Cultivator, tiller, etc for John Deere L111

Hey there all,
This last summer, I bought a John Deere L111 from Home Depot. I have a
garden that is around 31' x 51', and don't own a tiller. Does anyone know
of any pull behind tillers/cultivators/etc. that would work with this
tractor? I understand that this is mower, but I have heard that you can
buy attachments from other manufacturers that will do the job. The
tractor has a 20 horse V twin, and standard tires. If I do wind up with
an attachment to till the garden, will I have to install weights and
chains to get good traction? New tires?

Any help anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Kyle


Good day Kyle, I have seen some after market plows/tillers for lawn
tractors. The ones I've seen have a metal box on the top of them where you
place some type of weight. Bricks, bags of sand and the like. These just
don't seem pratical IMHO. The JD L111 doesn't have a pto, which would be
the way I would want to go. Stop over at you local JD dealer and see what
they have and what their opinion is about a pull behind.
