Spacious garden cart
But the garden cart is still in the plans for the purchase, but the closest! My friend uses this cart is not the first season, so the positive qualities could appreciate in practice:
- unlike metal wheelbarrows, this truck is very light – weighs only 2.7 kg, but the plastic quality: and direct sunlight, and frost suffered no damage;
- very convenient design! Loaded, took the handle and rolled for a – no burden on hands and shoulders! I tried to transport the soil with such a cart and understood the meaning of the expression to work effortlessly, although its load capacity is decent – up to 30 kg (volume 50 l);
- due to the compact size (width 36 cm), the cart has good maneuverability (it will easily pass through the narrow aisles without damaging the crops planted on the beds).
Cycling combine for comfortable work
But what Cycling combine came up with the cottagers to facilitate the collection of the strawberries. There are many variations on the theme, but the idea is clear, right?
You can make fun of the homemade, but it is great to make life easier for those who have under berry plantations allocated significant land. Squatting a lot will turn out? Or bent over? Do not forget about the sun and the need to rearrange the box, which with each handful of berries is becoming increasingly unaffordable. Young hard, what can we say about older men… whether It is to collect berries, sitting under an umbrella, on a comfy seat! Here you can and a bottle of water to attach, and radio to deliver – in short, to equip the workplace with comfort. Don’t know who the author of the idea, but it is done!
Cute apron for country fashionistas
It is definitely not an innovative idea, and still it is worthy of our attention. Mainly because the apron is easy to sew in half an hour: you do not need any special skill or exquisite fabrics – all you can choose to your taste. What good is an apron? The fact that the shoulders and back are spared from the weight of harvested fruit or vegetables. The photo shows a nice sample, but you can collect it either a little fruit or bulk, but light (bell peppers, salads, greens).
If the product is intended for a heavier burden, the upper edge of the pocket can be strengthened and fixed in the center on the belt (Yes, at least a button), so that the collected does not fall out on the ground at the most inopportune moment.
Simple device for collecting gooseberries
Although he has small spines, but before the blood can hurt, especially when it is necessary to disrupt the hard-to-reach berry. The simplest device under force to make any summer resident (even a weak woman, even a teenager), and gooseberries will have to give berries without a fight. I think it is not necessary to explain the principle of work – everything is clear without words.
And again mentally thank the inventor: you can collect the berries slowly, carefully (and not even for one day) with one or two gooseberry bushes. But if there are dozens, or even hundreds? There is no time to cool off: the berry will fall off, and from the earth to collect – any more not that.
Roll to record collecting nuts
Oh, I wish I had a roll like that when we got to the walnut plantation a few years ago. The core of the hazelnut harvest has already passed, and the owners have removed the protection. But nuts there was still a lot! Looking at the wealth lying under my feet, I regretted only one thing – that I have only two hands. Falling on all fours, scattering the hazelnuts nakamuraza voles (if they were not cute hungry animals, and voracious competitors!) I probably set a record for the speed of collecting nuts, knowing that time is limited. In General, I was pushed into the car almost by force, and then only when it got dark-before I did not want to hear about leaving! We have manually collected about a bag of nuts, and if I had such a roll!
By the way, depending on the distance between the spokes, they can collect walnuts and apples.
There are still a lot of practical devices that facilitate harvesting – scrapers for forest berries, fruit collections (very good for mulberry), loops and slingshots for sea buckthorn – you can not tell about all in one article. But you can share in the comments of their impressions of the devices, the benefits of which struck so much that there is no strength to remain silent. The main thing is that all of us, who have grown a rich harvest, do not fall down without strength during its collection.
