Dot’s Thot: I garden a lot, here in SoCal  and for my mother when I visit Hawaii to see her and help out.  She and I have always appreciated good hand tools for the garden.  At 92, she probably would find this hefty helper a little heavy, but I have no doubt she would still try to take it from me to “do a little job”.

Yard Butler Garden Terra Weeder #TT-1W

I have cheaper, bulkier versions of this, and the neat shape, heft, and versatility makes this tool one to consider for the gardener who still does mechanical weeding (I do, because I am loathe to poison anything). and because it allows you to get down to the nitty gritty.

There is a senior with arthritis who reviewed this item as too heavy, and I can understand that well.  However, for those of us still able to lift and grip, this is the kind of useful garden tool we might want in our hand tool arsenal.  Anyhow, take a look — I think it is great.

Aloha, DoT

Cultivator Tool and Loop Hoe Combo.

Looking for a great gift for your gardening-mom?  I’ve found that a high quality tool with that can save her a little bit of time and strain (especially on her back and knees) really makes my mom happy.  This Cultivator Tool with built-in Loop Hoe fits the bill– I think it’ll make a great birthday gift.

I’m going to quote form the review I read:

The cultivator and loop hoe combination is a real back saver, the long handle and angle of the two options make it very easy to use.
The appearance of the product it looks to me that it will last for years.
I highly recommend this product if you have any type of gardening.

A tool that’s easy to use, long lasting, and makes gardening easier is the perfect addition to any gardening-momma’s tool shed.

How to Grow World Record Tomatoes

I had to share this because my mom is such an avid tomato grower.  She planted about 50 plants this year and she’s bringing in some amazingly large tomatoes.

You can see some of the fruits of her labor in the previous post, but I wanted to share this book.  “How to Grow World Record Tomatoes.”

It’s fantastic and really simple AND focuses on Organic Techniques.

Anyway you can check out all these links to learn more about it.
