No email. No tracking. Just a bit of fun from the tool shed.

What Kind of Garden Tool Are You?

Answer the questions honestly, then see which tool matches your gardening style! :)

“If you took this twice and got the same answer… you already knew.” - I am shovel!

1. When you start a gardening task, you…

Dive right in and tackle the problem head-on.
Plan carefully, making sure every tool is in its proper place.
Move slowly, inspecting roots, leaves, and soil before touching anything.
Look for the easiest way to get the job done, maybe with a modern gadget.

2. How do you feel about heavy tools?

Love them. Weight = authority.
Prefer something manageable and precise.
It depends on the task; finesse matters more than brute force.
I like tools that do some of the work for me.

3. What’s your patience level?

Infinite patience for a good result.
Medium—don’t waste time, but careful is good.
Extremely patient. One wrong move can cost a plant.
Low—if it takes too long, I want shortcuts or power tools.

4. How do you feel about caring for tools?

Sharpen, oil, rescue from rain—tools are partners.
Keep them tidy, maybe sharpen occasionally.
Only care if necessary, but respect history.
Use them hard, replace when worn—let tech help.

5. Which of these annoys you most?

Dull blades or flimsy handles.
Losing track of gloves or small tools.
Careless handling of delicate plants.
Doing everything manually when there’s a cordless option.

Tools come and go. Some earn a spot in the shed. Some earn a quiet goodbye.
