Hand-Held Dibbler
Farmers around the world spend a great deal of time planting in the beginning of the growing season. With bulbs and starter plants, much of this time is spent bent over digging holes in raised beds or soil. The hand-held dibbler presented in this fact sheet is a fast, efficient tool for generating consistent, depth-controlled holes. It is faster than a bulb planter because the soil is not removed from the bed. Note: This publication is not available in hard copy from the Publications Distribution Center.
