Although many people love working in their garden, most would readily accept tools that would make gardening easier on the body and less time consuming. There are both manual hand tools and power tools that help make gardening easier and more enjoyable. Most of these tools can be bought or rented at your local hardware or home improvement store for a reasonable price. Hand tools and rental tools that might be helpful include: * Shovel-This is an essential tool to have when digging holes and moving around larger amounts of soil, compost, mulch, etc. There are a many kinds of shovels but a good all purpose shovel to have is a round point shovel. * Trowel-A trowel is helpful when digging holes for small plants and transplanting others. Most gardeners consider this an indispensible tool. * Hoe-A hoe is used to break up hard earth. They come in a short hand held size or with a large size with long handles to break up large aggregates of soil. * Cultivator-A cultivator is used to rake the rocks out a patch of soil. * Pruning shears-When plants grow they need to be trimmed and that is best done with a pair of pruning sheers * Power Tiller-When you need to break up the soil, grass, weeds, and roots to prepare the ground for new planting it is best to use a power tiller. You walk behind the tiller while its powerful forward rotating blades break up and mix the soil. This is an expensive purchase and usually is not needed very often so most people rent this machine from the rental tools section of their hardware store. It can be rented by the hour or day. * Sod Cutter-This motor driven machine can also be rented and is used to slice sod into strips for simple removal. This is a good tool to rent because this is not a project that is usually done often. * Soil Aerator-This power tool can quickly create small but deep holes in your lawn that help water and air penetrate the soil and reach the roots. This tool can be rented as well. * Shredders and chippers-When you are clearing large plants, trees, and shrubs for your garden you can shred or chip the clippings into mulch that you can use in your garden. If this is a onetime project it is probably wise to rent this tool. * Hedge Trimmer-Using this chainsaw-like tool is the easiest way to trim back thicker hedges and shrubs. Gardeners with many of these plants consider this tool essential. Planning to work on a DIY home project like gardening? Do not worry about buying the right tools.
