Heel - With bracket - 16 cm - Without handle

Tilling the ground? This loose hoe from Talen Tools mounts on a handle length to your liking. With a width of 16 centimeters you have an average width. You quickly cover a nice part of the (vegetable) garden, yet it remains possible to work accurately. In contrast to the hoe, you pull this hoe with bracket towards you when you want to work the soil shallowly. Because the steel on this hoe is galvanized, rust is less likely to occur. The brace also allows you to use this hoe when you need to work on heavier ground. Point to the blade with your thumbs when using the chop. Createëer a small angle with the ground so that the heel does not get stuck. At too large an angle, you will not pull the heel out of the ground as easily.


What do you use a heel for?

The main function of the heel is to keep the ground weed-free. Use the heel from Talen Tools to cut the weed roots loose. If the plantlets then become loose on the ground, they will wilt quickly on a dry sunny day. When the soil is wet, a cultivator is a better garden tool to use. The smaller the weeds are, the easier it is to remove them with the hoe. So weeding with some regularity is an important factor in making gardening easier for yourself. Although you take the chop backwards, make sure you work forward. This keeps the garden neater because you don't chop into weeds that have already been weeded.

Pay attention to the right handle length

Keeping gardening comfortable and avoiding physical discomfort? Then choose a handle that fits your height. A handle that is too long will make you overstretch your shoulders. Don't. A handle that is too short puts too much pressure on your lower back because your knees cannot bend or stretch easily. Also make sure the handle has a wax treatment. This will keep the wood strong and the natural look longer. A handle with a diameter of 28.5 millimeters fits into the holder.
