  2. Fork: Garden forks are equipped with tines or prongs and are used for loosening soil, removing weeds, and ensuring good ventilation of the plant&single_quot;s root zone. Forks can also be used for collecting leaves and other plant debris.

  3. Rake: Rakes have a long handle and metal teeth. They are used for collecting leaves, cut grass, and other plant debris, as well as for leveling the soil after sowing.

  4. Hoe: A hoe is a tool with tines used for tilling the soil and weeding. It helps prepare the soil for planting.

  5. Trowel: A trowel is used for digging holes, creating planting pockets for seeds and seedlings, and transferring soil. It is also helpful for mixing soil and fertilizers.

  6. Dibble: A dibble is a specialized tool for creating small holes and depressions for planting seeds and seedlings. It often has markings to maintain the correct distance between plants.

  7. Hand Cultivators: Hand cultivators, also known as hoes, are used for tilling the soil and weeding in confined spaces.
