A gardener, whether a beginner or a professional, needs a minimum set of tools to plant and maintain their plants. In addition to essential tools such as spades, hoes, bulb planters, and rakes, the dibber is part of the useful equipment for working the soil before any planting. It is important to choose the conical dibber best suited to the user's morphology to avoid blisters on the hand and back pain.
Thanks to its conical shape, the dibber allows for effortless formation of more or less wide holes in freshly dug soil. Usually made of composite, steel, or wood, the conical dibber is a hand tool for the garden that easily penetrates the soil to create a hole to accommodate seeds or transplant bare roots from seedlings and clumps. Three types of conical dibbers can be distinguished, namely the bulb dibber, the bedding plant dibber, and the transplant dibber for young plants. To provide great maneuverability and real comfort of use, major brands like Outifrance, Silverline, Leborgne, Gardena, and Ribimex offer conical dibbers with ergonomic handles. Some dibbers feature a T-shaped wooden handle with a ferrule mounting to offer more solidity and a good grip.
