A garden cart, better known to us as a wheelbarrow, will be a faithful assistant for work on the site. It can be used to transport the harvested cut grass in compost, branches of cut trees, seedlings, soil and tools for placing future plantings. The cost of the trolley starts from 1200 rubles and depends on the quality of the material, volume and carrying capacity.

Automatic watering

A large plot requires significant energy consumption for irrigation. To facilitate the work, you can build an automatic irrigation system that allows you to set the desired time interval and reacts to rain, canceling the flow of water when the soil is sufficiently moistened. Installation of such a system will cost a lot, about 10,000 rubles per hundred square meters.

Many plants do not require regular watering, but do need constant spraying of the leaves. Therefore, we recommend purchasing a spray nozzle for a hose, there are multi-mode models, some of them are able to control the pressure of the jet and have a movable head.

Hose sprayer

Hose reel

Hoses in the garden get in the way, and if not properly wound, they form kinks and kinks, which lead to cracks. Improper storage will sooner or later lead to rotting or deterioration of the coating, the hose will leak and become unsuitable for watering. Therefore, we recommend purchasing an automatic rewinder, which will not only make it easier to store the hose, but also keep it for years to come. The cost of such a device starts from 6500 rubles, it can be mounted to the wall or be floor-standing.
