Whats the most usless garden tool/gadget you've bought

Post by barboo »

Ive again beed fighting the weed infested border today and having gathered over the years all kinds of tools and gadgets it got me thinking about some of the rubbish ive bought
Like the bulb planter,
it takes out a clump of earth so you can plant the bulb and then you return the earth!!!!!!
except after one use the earth refuses to leave the planter.

A flame thrower for the weeds ,burns them down they then grow back even stronger }hairout{ , but excellent for ants nests in the garden , and red might in the chicken coop. )t'
A leek in the hand,is worth 2 in the roof.

I bought a pair of shears the other day, and after about half an hour the handle fell off. But don't get me on about useless tools! Almost any power tool except a lawn mower is unnecessary in a garden and most of them take longer than the appropriate hand tool. But for the most useless and antisocial of all, I vote the LEAF BLOWER.
