Like the next gardener, I don’t need anything else besides my hands and my plants. Nonetheless, there are some gardening tools I’ve learned to love and can’t live without. Whether I’m prepping my veggie garden or watering my indoor plant babies, these next 5 tools are must have gardening tools!
This is super cool because it lets you know the level of moisture your plant’s soil is at. You basically just stick the measurement in the soil and allow it to do it’s magic. Why would you want it?

A sprayer creates the same watering effect, but a continuous supply of water with a whole lot of convenience and saved time.
