- Raised beds
A lightweight, rust-proof 3-prong claw that is the everyday tool for breaking up crusted soil, aerating and weeding between plants. Cheap enough to own several, and the cast head won't snap like stamped cultivators.
Pros
- Cast-aluminum head resists rust and the tines will not snap off while raking through soil
- Very light (about 0.56 lb) and cheap, so it is easy to keep one in every bed
- Non-slip ergonomic grip reduces wrist fatigue when clawing crusted topsoil
Cons
- Aluminum tines flex in heavy clay or rocky ground where forged steel would not
- Short reach means kneeling and bending for anything beyond the front of a bed
- Three prongs loosen and aerate but will not dig a planting hole on their own
