Gardening Tools

Gardening is an activity that combines patience, skill, creativity and vision. Many people take up gardening as a hobby and some take it up as a career. This activity not just involves patience, but also needs a person to put in physical effort. As COVID-19 has taken over the world, more and more people are turning to outdoor activities that can be completed without meeting people. One of them is gardening.

It has now become very easy to acquire the space and proper tools to take up this activity within the comfort and safety of your home. For many years, gardening has been used as an exercise by senior adults as they feel a sense of fulfillment while carrying it out. Seniority has a wide range of basic gardening tools that will help you fulfill this activity to the best.

BENEFITS OF GARDENING

Gardening as an activity is very beneficial, especially since it involves physical labor as well. In addition to providing you with fresh fruits and vegetables, flowers and plants, gardening has a lot of health benefits.

    • Exposure to Vitamin D increases the calcium level in your body which improves bone health and immune system. Sunlight helps senior adults achieve sufficient vitamin D level in the body, making gardening the perfect hobby.

    • It is known to reduce the risk of dementia by 36%, as shown by a 2006 study that tracked more than 2,800 people over the age of 60 for 16 years. The conclusion was that physical activity, gardening in particular, can reduce the chance of dementia in future years.

    • Gardening fights stress and even spending 30 minutes out in the garden can have a great effect on your mood. A study cited by CNN in Netherlands suggests that gardening can fight stress and reported better moods in people afterwards with lower levels of the stress hormone, cortisol.

    • Gardening is an amazing form of aerobic exercise and can help you sweat. Cutting, pulling weeds, twisting and bending will work your muscles and improve your strength, stamina and flexibility. It falls under the category of a light to moderate exercise and can be beneficial in cases of age-related weight gain or obesity in general.

    • This activity will give you fresh vegetables and fruits at your home, eliminating the need to consume store-bought goods. You can also plant flowers and beneficial plants for your home.

Unlike many other hobbies, gardening does not require a lot of monetary spending. You just need the sun, good soil, some seeds and water. But, it can be a grueling activity, which is why there are many tools available that can make this task easier. If you are new to gardening, the number of tools available in the market can be overwhelming as one might not know the purpose of each tool. Therefore, Seniority has curated the necessities for gardening, all in one place.

TYPES OF GARDENING TOOLS

MANUAL TOOLS

Manual tools can be worked without the need for power or a battery. These basic gardening tools require the user to put in physical effort, which makes them perfect for those looking for some exercise while carrying out this activity. These garden hand tools are perfect for gardening beginners. Manual tools are usually used to cut plants or shape them.

ELECTRIC TOOLS

Electric tools are power, or battery operated and can be used by people who have previous gardening experience. These tools may be slightly difficult to handle or use because of their size and level of operation required. For beginners, it is advised to use these under supervision of someone who knows about their usage. Electric tools are usually used in big gardens and are mostly suitable for grass trimming or cutting.

TYPES OF MANUAL GARDENING TOOLS

While selecting the proper tools for gardening, it is very easy to go overboard. These tools can cost a lot of money and take up a lot of space, which makes proper knowledge of what’s required, very important. Instead of buying multiple low-quality tools, it is better to buy necessary high-quality tools that can go a long way in making the most out of your investment. Below are the types of important and useful manual gardening tools:

GLOVES:

While gardening is an amazing hobby, it can also become thorny and splintery very quickly. Therefore, it is important to own a pair of good-quality gloves that will protect your hands from thorns or injuries from tools. They should not be too bulky as they may hinder your work, especially when working with seeds or transplanting seeds. It is important to buy the perfect fit as poorly fitting gloves can result in accidents due to slips or blisters. Gloves with longer cuffs are better as they protect the forearms from scratches and keep the soil from getting in.

PRUNING SHEARS:

Pruning shears, also known as secateurs, help you maintain plants that are getting out of control and taking over. This tool is a type of scissors for use on plants and is strong enough to trim hard branches of shrubs, sometimes up to 2 cm thick. There are two types of pruners: anvil and bypass pruners. Anvil pruners have a blade that closes against an anvil on the lower jaw and the anvil is a softer metal than the blade, while bypass pruners come with a blade that sweeps past the lower jaw. This type of pruner is reserved for cuts that affect plant health.

LOPPERS:

A lopper is another cutting tool and is basically a long-handled pruner that is used to trim thicker branches and hard to reach areas. Its long handle provides the leverage it takes to cut through branches that are up to an inch or more in diameter. There are two types of loppers: anvil and bypass loppers, and bypass loppers are more precise in cut location.

HAND TROWEL:

Trowels are useful for transplanting bedding plants and herbs, planting containers and taking out weeds. The handle should fit comfortably in your hand for easy usage. If you want to move soil, choose a broad blade, and to dig up weeds or rocky soil, you should get a long, narrow trowel.

RAKE:

Rakes are used to whisk away leaves and debris. They come in a variety of styles and sizes, but as a beginner, it is advised to get a standard leaf rake. If the rake is adjustable, it does the job of more than one tool and reaches into narrow areas or gathers large piles of leaves.

HOE:

The type of garden hoe you need to get depends on the type of garden you have. In case of a vegetable garden, a wider, sturdier hoe is suitable and for a perennial garden, a thinner and a more delicate touch hoe is recommended. Hoes can be used to prepare garden and flower beds and cut down weeds. You should look for a comfortable handle with a long reach with a sharp blade. Flat hoes are helpful in turning the soil in vegetable gardens.

WATERING CAN:

A portable watering can is a container with a spout that is used to water plants manually. There are two types of watering cans: plastic and metal, and there are various types of styles, colours, sizes and nozzle options available. Plastic cans are lighter than metal but less durable as well. Select the size of the can according to your strength to make watering your garden an easy task. The position of the handle should allow you to carry the can as well as pour easily. Watering cans with two handles are better for children or elderly gardeners.
