Auger Drill Bit for Planting 1.6"(D) x16.5(L), Garden Ground Earth Spiral Drill Bit for 3/8" Hex Drive Drill, for Post Hole Digger Bulb Bedding Digging Plant Rapid Planter

Excellent! Exactly what I needed to loosen up rocky dirt to put posts in the ground. I couldn't break through it with the shovel. I've ended up using it to plant flowers, throw down seeds and mix in the dirt, and put posts for fence in the dirt. Be careful though, if it gets caught on a rock or stuck, it'll about rip your arm off. Always have a good grip and stance in case this happens. I'm a 32 yr old woman and used this very easily.

Hard to find longer ones at this price ($8.98 at the time). Well made, did the trick. Would buy again.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Much easier than a dibble.

This product is fantastic for planting bulbs or even gardening. It is durabile and the amount of time saved vs shovel is unspeakable, it is as simple of wiping it off to clean and if you want an easier way to use then stick in a bucket of water and dill away. It basically would fit in any drill and you can make depth with a piece of tape on the shaft if you want to plant more shallow, I used electrical tape and it help up well. Good value for the money. It is very easy to install and use as its very basic. The only downfall or negative I can think of is that if there is a weed barrier paper it gets caught up, bundled up, etc. But not necessarily a specific problem with this product itself but using a drill but like this wont be worth it.

No more trying to push the stakes into the ground..just make the hole with the auger and then it goes in easily.This is really a powerful little auger with the right drill.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:sized right for planting larger peat pellets.

Digs plant holes in earth that was hard as a rock and totally undiggable before I bought this auger bit. I’m very happy with it. My wife is ecstatic that she can plant in places that were previously unavailable. Make sure you don’t adjust your drill’s torque too high. If you do, and you hit a snag, you could twist your arm and cause significant damage. I highly recommend this product.

So far it’s very neat for my raised beds.
