What's your favourite gardening implement?

The same as bobj except I usually lose the kneeling pad on my way around the garden!

 

At this moment, my favourite garden implient has to be my new hose, no more Kinks or aching arms :thumb:

 

Hahaha! Brilliant!

I like the red paint Pro.G. I'm gonna do that to all the tools. Helps if they get lent to neighbours.

 

Heh Heh, nice one Glen:D

 

I suppose mine has to be my new pruning knife i got for fathers day.

however i've just found a use for my daughters old moses basket mattress, a lot more comfier than my foam kneeling pad.

 

My favourite implement is actually a rusty 3" screw I found on the floor of the barn when we moved in! It makes a great dibber and widger, a brilliant slug dispatcher and is perfect for making holes in the bottom of yoghurt pots for seedlings!
And it was free! :thumb:

 

Me felco no2s an the holster thing there in so i dont lose em lol

 

As I don't possess a huge tool collection, it'd be the daisy grubber, as it's quite satisfying to use it and get weeds out the lawn.

 

Spud, i used to have one of those felco holsters but I lost it and the felcos!!!! Im on my fourth pair now!!!!

 

How the hell did u manage to lose it ??? all ive ever lost is a pair of shears an a few cheep thingys for weeding paveing .....

 

Easy, being small i often place them on the ground and then forget!! One pair even ended up in the prunings and went into a very hot bonfire!

Most of the propertys I work on are several acres or more therfore very difficult to find things once lost.

Problem is i often have around ten or more tools out and even with a van as organised as mine when im rushing to finish i can often forget something. My loseing things is a bit of a joke with my customers now, most ask me what ive forgotten as im going!!!!

 

Well clip it on to ur belt or pocket then thants the point of it

 

Aye but im too slender to need a belt! and clipped it on it used to rub against my leg.

 

We have been using a long handled spade for some time - a real good strong one ( you can find one if you follow the link in my signature)

They are definitely the best - no back bending

 

Pro.G : I thought you had red rings round all your tool(s) :D

Mind you, not going to show up much on a pair of Felco's, eh?!
