It is seed-starting time for some of us, which presented me with a dilemma. I had my seeds and my beautiful seed- starting compressed bale medium, but no scoop!
We used to use large scoops in a bakery...so I got my large scoop at a restaurant supply store. They quit carrying them, so I got my last one on eBay. Still have my old one...at least 25 years old now. It holds as much as a large shovel...one of my favorite garden tools.

Yep, I have hefty metal food service scoops in three sizes that I use in my plant nursery. I've never found anything better. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009L5HY2C/
They take water, weather, and abuse, and will last forever.

Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.
