Laura, your awareness of simple things like clearing back the dirt so people can see the edge of the hole is awesome. You never “um” or “err”, you speak fluidly and confidently, and then with Aaron’s camera and editing skills, your videos literally put many TV gardening shows to shame. I’m forever thankful of your skills, and knowledge, and that you are willing to share your unfolding garden with us!

At 74 I have a hard time holding a drill. Sigh... It is so frustrating. Laura is right, go with DeWalt drills! Hubby bought one from somewhere that stopped working while I was hanging curtain rods! I went and bought a Dewalt Just to finish my project! At first, he was mad that I spent $$$, however, he quickly realized it was the better tool. LOL Now I doubt I could use that auger; I am reduced to a small trowl. Aging is not fun!

Due to sticker shock for some augers, I ended up buying a "cheaper" auger off a popular online store and wow it sure was CHEAPER. Tried using it to plant my bulbs...DUD! So, for everyone considering buying an auger, treat yourself to solid steel one, I know they are quite pricey but it is a good investment for all those holes in the future!

I’m 3 hours away from her, but I go up every weekend to do the gardening and harder chores for her. These will help me get so much more done in the short amount of time I have there each week.

Does anyone else want to run out and buy 3 acres of garden space so they can use all of these augers? For so many it would be a dream come true but not realistic for some of us “older” gardeners! Thank you for letting us live our garden 🪴 dreams through you and your family!

The music and editing on this video is hysterical! I'm waiting for speech bubbles with things like KA-POW! and BAM! 🤣

I just received my power planter starter kit. They had the best price on the drill. I ordered several hundred bulbs and my normal drill had a hard time with the auger I bought from a box store.

Laura, I absolutely love my Power Planter augers. I have two sizes, a 3" in the 12" length, and a 4" in the 24" length. These augers are heavy-duty and extremely well made. You are the one who introduced me to Power Planter augers in the first place, and I'm so glad that you did. Planting bulbs has never been easier. I'm short, 5' 1" and I'm trying to decide if I'm strong enough to handle a bigger drill, maybe the concrete mixing one. The Dewalt Hammer Drill is the one I'm currently using with the smaller augers, and it works for me. Have a great weekend! ~Margie

My husband happened to be sitting in the room while I was watching this video and said I should recommend to you Rigid drills/batteries as they have a lifetime warranty. He uses them for work all day long (construction field) and burns out motors or the batteries stop charging etc and they are great about either fixing them or (if it can't be fixed) replacing them. I can't tell you how many new tools he's gotten! Just passing the info on!

Tips ... Didn't read all the comments so maybe these have been said... For planting with an auger.... I like to set my drill on the lower setting used for putting in screws, instead of the higher setting used for drilling wood or metals, etc. The lower/screw setting also can have a racheting adjustment that stops the blade rotation if it catches on something like a big rock/root. This can save your wrists from a harsh jolt. I find there is usually no need to put any significant pressure down when digging with the auger. The blades tend to pull the auger into the ground and you really only need to guide it while drilling holes. And... Don't rush. It's tempting to try to go faster and faster as you plant a lot with an auger. But a measured pace is best and is still way faster than other methods of planting. With two helpers and one 2" x 24" auger I planted about 600 perennial plugs in a rocky hillside this spring in under 3 hours. One person placed plants per the design, one drilling holes, the third put in the plant. Not a speed record, but an easy pace to work at and no struggle overall. Happy planting

Watching this video this morning when I hear a tapping on the window. It was a group of gophers from my back yard. "Turn it up!" They said, in unison. I'll be keeping a close eye on my Amazon account. 🐿️🐿️🐿️

Important to note, I discovered that some augers have a hex end shape and fit a hex drill opening. Other drills like mine are chuck drills and the hex end augers do not stay attached. For my drills I need augers that are round and not hex on the part that fits into the drill. Thought I would mention this since I struggled with my hex auger not staying attached to my drill without understanding the issue. I love your videos; you break down confusing topics making them understandable and I greatly appreciate how you visually demonstrate your points. Thank you!

I haven’t even watched the video yet, but I can tell you I will LOVE it. I bought a dewalt drill and a 3” auger for smaller flowers. I’m now getting the longer one. I will refrain from the larger auger - for now. These tools are incredible! Where have they been my whole gardening life?!!

Your honesty about what works and what doesn’t is so refreshing. It makes me feel like I really will get my money’s worth rather than feeling like I got duped!

Thank you again! Augers changed my life in the garden! After knee replacement surgeries the shovel was not my friend. With a drill & an auger you dig your hole, plant your plant & move on to your next plant. Easy peazy!🌺🌸🌻

Hey just wanted to say that the editing for this video is soo awesome ✨ totally highlights all the tools 😀

Thank you Laura and Aaron for this Video, much appreciated! After seeing your 1st Video on these a while back, I purchased the Professional Auger Starter Pack 3 inch by 24 inch Extended and 5 inch by 28 inch Quart Pot Plant Auger. Have drilled thousands of holes on our 1 Arce Property. Power Planter has the best Augers I have ever purchased!! Really like the comparisons it really helps, enjoyed the in depth explainations. Wonderful Graphics and Music!!! You have inspired and guided me with all my plating, thank you!!! God Bless.

I instantly started smiling when the rock music came on when you detail featured each auger 😁 Great choice

I just finished watching all the playlists this awesome page has accomplished year after year! Thank you so much for all your amazing work. I only live in an apartment but you’ve inspired me to have so many beautiful plant plans for my future home! ❤️

I bought a cheap one (knowing it wasn't the best choice) to see if they'd work for me. I can tell it won't last forever, but it does fine and makes my life a lot easier! When it dies I'll definitely get a nicer one to replace it because they are a GAME CHANGER!

Love the transition to drilling!!! Perfect music and editing!!!!
