Review on Egifty Garden Spiral 1 6X16 5 Planting: The Perfect Solution for Effortless Gardening by Steven Ali

Has uses other than bulb planting

I'm sure these augers make bulb planting easier (given the right soil conditions) but I've used the larger one for something completely different. I installed a 50 foot section of palisade along the border of my property to add some privacy where a few trees used to grow. Although the trees were felled and the stumps sharpened, the roots were everywhere. Trying to find places to dig post holes became a nightmare, and in some places I had to use 2" galvanized pipe to support the fence. That's where these drills come in. I attached them to my drill and continued. drill with a drill. I've hit the root a few times, but because they're so much smaller than a shovel and I only needed 3" holes, they were able to get in between the roots and find places a shovel would never fit. Based on the fact that I've encountered some hard stuff and they haven't broken, I suspect they will work in almost any ground except really rocky ground.
