What Techniques Can I Use to Improve Garden Spade Efficiency?
I'm quite detail-oriented when it comes to my garden layout and efficiency. Recently, I've noticed that my garden spade seems to drag a bit when I'm breaking up soil and preparing the ground for new plantings. My garden is a traditional Japanese style with a lot of ornamental features, and I've been hesitant to disrupt the soil too much. I've already tried adjusting my grip and posture, but I'm looking for additional techniques that can enhance my spade's performance without compromising the aesthetics of my garden. Can anyone share advanced techniques or tricks that have worked for them to improve spade efficiency, especially in a traditional gardening setting?
