My 5 Favourite Tools in the Garden
There are so many different types of tools that can be useful when growing vegetables, and over the years a few have become my favourite.

Ruler is from a carpentry education center in Biberach Germany. Did you attend? Looks like a neat place.
Thank you very much for this video. I have a question: Are you using a specific app on your phone to keep tract of your data? Thank you!
Thank you for educating me.
Super Video.Danke!
I love my hoe, and my pointy American spade.
It’s the simple things in life
Hi. First time watching one of your videos. Excellent content. I never thought of the smart phone to take picture records of the different crops. Brilliant. Going to incorporate that into my gardening journaling. Thanks so much for the information.
Bekar

One tool that does a mediocre to well job on 5 types of action is still a lot more valuable than 5 highly specialized tools. You, me, we are still the ones that have to carry them π

My 1 favourite essential tools video
excellent video, excellent explanation
Greetings from Costa Rica.
just google Woodglut :))
Iβve seen so many gardening videos and I really like this one. Thanks for the tips!
In my opinion you are a gardener – scientist with very innovative (and sometimes very simple) ideas. I love your approach because it seems to me that you don’t want to teach everybody but you only share your knowledge. In spite of this i learned a lot of things!…Greetings from northen Italy (Castana, Oltrepo pavese, 60 km south of Milan)
SUPER !
I am very curious about the data entry software you were using. I would like to see more about it : what it is, how you use it etc. Thanks for the great vid !
Awesome video! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing, I gotta try the little wire weeder, what a great idea!
Myltumesc mult pentru un video complet,generos,masat in doar 10′.M-am abonat.
Thank you for using German measuring technology. We like it if people are precise. π
Great video w/ very useful content…Question, so I can easily clear ground for a small (regular small) garden w/ a spade & garden fork?..I realize I need to start small & go larger only if I feel I can handle it…Thanks…
WHAT ABOUT ROTO TILLER HOW TO BUST THE SOIL UP WITHOUT A TILLER
After your years of experience, is there advise you would share about greenhouse designs you favor?
I like to use a pickaxe for big rocks and a steel-forged spade for turning difficult soil.
Ima just skip this and go watch some Indian dudes build an underground pool with their hands. If they don’t need tools neither do I.
Again, Exceptional!
Thank-you!
Here in West Sussex, I need to find a source of supply of long handles, such as on your spade, shovel and fork.
All in good time.
I very much admire your energy and application. And yes, that earlier morale point! Essential and so hard!
What app or program do you use to keep track of your growing notes? Asking for a farmer friend who needs something besides muddy scraps of paper! Thanks!
This is my favourite tool – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmnjEOthrlE&t=21s π

Would u plz tell me from where did u get long hand for the tools..

Man I love your videos
why you talk too much
That is an extremely useful video, very well put together content.good man
Damn. Thatβs some nice dirt
Like if you are here because you got into Gardening during Covid Lockdown and now you are trying to learn as much as possible. π
its a rule not a ruler
A much better variant of the wire weeder, IMHO, is this tool:
https://www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/garden/garden-care/weeders/73258-garden-bandit-hand-loop-weeder?item=XH561
I have linked the commercial version, but mine is made from a similarly shaped wooden handle and a loop of metal strapping salvaged from a pallet. I use it constantly, have had it for 20 years or so, and am only on my 2nd piece of strapping. The handle is made from cedar, which is very soft and light, but a bit of filler epoxy has kept it going so far.
Where did you get the scythe from? We bought an abandoned property in Kerry and I need to clear lots of overgrown ground.
I have found that the hoe is very good and use it more and more with the things I do in the garden….making rows or making a mound to plant seeds..getting up weeds …..chopping up the dirt……list goes on
Great video, good job and thank you!
