Digging

[Mash]

No really. Sharing this 'cos I know a few of us are growers.

I cannot dig. Kills my back. Rotavator not much better.

I found this secondhand locally. Stunning. Just dug over 10x10 turf in about 30 mins didn't even break a sweat. Probably best tool ever.

A spade with handle bars, brilliant! Not.
But if it works for you then who am I to nay say?

I will concede that the olde styley spade may be due a facelift...

I use one of these Ryobi Expand-it mini rotivators https://www.ryobitools.com/outdoor/products/details/cultivator-attachment

Fits on a small split shaft petrol strimmer. Low weight, easy to use and easily digs down a few inches. When I was preparing the garden from long term pasture I mowed it first, stripped off 2 inches with a hired turf cutter, and then dug it with this. The turf I just stacked grass down in a pile, left it for two years and then put it back into the garden as rotted down top soil.

You are looking at the wrong end the magic is further down.

Joking aside. That's how I first saw them.
When I was a kid the wife next to us dug 1/4 acre with one every year. Tiny dot of a woman.


Your wife would be so pleased.
