Garden Tools: Dibber

A dibber is a long, stick-like tool used to make holes for seeds and seedlings to make sure they're sufficiently buried in the soil without damage. The width of a dibber will vary and thinner dibbers are best suited to sowing seeds and cuttings while planting small bulbs requires a thicker tool; Make holes to put stem or root cuttings in (so the cutting isn't damaged by being forced in) and Making holes through plastic woven membrane mulches to plant out seedlings… essentially a hole maker.
