Cultivate for cash (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

till

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cultivate' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'for cash' is the wordplay.
'for' becomes 'til' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'cash' becomes 'L' (The pound sterling symbol is an elaborate L).
'til'+'l'='TILL'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for till that I've seen before include "Work the land for cultivation" , "Checkout - cultivate (land)" , "Farm - money drawer" , "Drawer holding money in shop." , "Money box" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
