Smith's Gardentown Family Garden Center and Nursery's TikTok account (@smithsgardentown) offers tips on gardening, from plant care to plant tips and garden-friendly bugs.
One user is to eliminate the need for expensive gardening tools.
In the video, the TikToker explains that if you wait until it rains a lot, you can pull out unwanted plants by their roots using pliers. The rain softens the soil, making it easier for the roots to emerge.

How does it help?
It's a great technique that will help you make your garden look the way you want it to and save you time and money. You don't need to buy any extra garden tools and it's much easier than digging up all the roots yourself. Even if the weather doesn't cooperate, you can try to saturate the soil with water and then use the spade itself.
In addition, this method is safe for the environment, since the use of chemical plant killers in garden care can release dangerous chemicals into the soil and water.
And if you manage to fertilize the roots like this tiktoker, you'll also create your own compost to support your garden's growth in the future.
