A practical hand rake designed for soil cultivation and for cleaning planting beds and the areas around plants with a single tool. The head comes with 5 spaced steel tines that help loosen and aerate the surface layer of the soil and collect leaves, plant debris and small weeds from between plants. The extendable handle lets you adjust the tool length to reach distant spots and between plants while reducing the need to bend. Its compact design makes it suitable for pots, planting beds, gardens and nurseries, especially for jobs that are hard to do with large garden rakes.

Uses
- Draw the tines through the soil surface to break up the hardened crust and aerate and turn the top layer. It can also be pulled gently between plants to gather dry leaves, plant debris and small weeds. The head size helps clean tight spots that are hard to reach with a large garden rake.
Directions for Use
- Set the handle to a suitable length and make sure it is locked before working. Insert the tines lightly into the surface layer and pull towards you to loosen and move the soil. To gather leaves and debris, use shallow, repeated pulling strokes to collect them in one spot without pushing the head in deeply.
Orkida Tip
- When working around plants, keep the tine strokes shallow and slightly away from the plant base to avoid damaging roots near the surface. For compacted soil, loosen it over several light passes rather than pushing the tines in deeply and forcing them all at once.
