Nesting Scoops ^Sale

Set of 3 nesting potting soil scoops (also commonly referred to as potting scoops or hand shovels).

Nesting Scoops: Because they are designed to fit inside one another for space-saving storage.

Trowel Scoops: Though different from a traditional flat trowel, they serve a similar purpose but hold more volume.

• High Sides: Unlike a flat shovel, the deep "bucket" shape prevents soil from spilling out the sides.

• Graduated Sizes: Usually, these come in sets of three (Small, Medium, Large) to accommodate different pot sizes.

• Ergonomic Handles: The narrow top part acts as a handle, often with a hole at the tip for hanging on a pegboard.

These are specifically designed for precision potting rather than digging in the ground. Here is how they are typically used:

• Filling Pots: The primary use is to move potting mix from a large bag into a flower pot without making a mess. The pointed tip allows you to direct the soil exactly where you want it.

• Creating Holes: You can use the bottom of the scoop to press down into the soil to create a perfectly sized indentation for a new plant.

• Fertilizing: The smallest scoop in your set is ideal for distributing granular fertilizer or soil amendments (like perlite or bone meal) in specific quantities.

• Scooping Mulch: They are excellent for placing top-dressings like pebbles or mulch around the base of indoor succulents or small bonsai trees where a large shovel would be too clumsy.

• Recommend using the smallest one for your indoor houseplants and the largest one for outdoor container gardening
