From year to year, at our dachas and personal plots, a very impressive amount of work awaits us - to dig up the beds, get rid of weeds, collect fallen leaves, trim the grass on the lawn, and you never know what else to do. Of course, you can't do it with your hands alone - every summer resident needs loyal helpers! What are these assistants, and what can they be useful for?
Shovel
One of the most important assistants of all summer residents, of course, is a shovel. In the absence of her, it will not be possible to plant a future crop or dig up the long-awaited fruits. Which shovel would be the most suitable? A bayonet shovel is perfect for almost any gardening work - it will help not only dig up beds or plant a future crop, but also trim edges or even dig ditches. A shovel is also suitable for working with bulk materials and leveling the soil surface, and a garden shovel is useful for forming flower beds, turning the soil in the garden, as well as for digging and replanting various plants. A ditch shovel and trench shovel will help you clear trenches and dig grooves, while the versatile shovel is a real godsend for working in confined spaces.
Rake
Labor on the site is unthinkable without a good rake. They are actively used for raking up fallen leaves, mowed grass and debris, as well as for loosening dug up soil, for clearing it from weeds and for breaking earth clods. There are three types of rake: garden, fan and flower. The garden rake will be the best helpers for loosening, aerating and leveling the soil, as well as breaking up earth clods. The fan rake is useful for picking up dry foliage, light debris or cut grass, and with the flower rake, even the most compact flower bed can be perfectly processed.
Lawn mower
Another faithful assistant to many summer residents is a lawn mower. There are two main types of lawn mowers: non-self-propelled and self-propelled. The first ones are driven by the person himself, and the second ones are driven by the engine, however, a person will still have to direct them in the right direction. Small lawn mowers of both types can be purchased for very tiny areas, while larger, self-propelled options are better for larger areas.
Without a doubt, these irreplaceable assistants greatly facilitate our summer cottage work and turn tedious everyday worries into pleasant chores!
