When I first took up gardening, I was quite appalled by the insects and worms in the soil. But one adapts! In any case, I don’t work as effectively with gloves, and aren’t there health benefits to getting your hands dirty?

0E-8 CASHMAP

I'm not so squeamish with worms now. I don't mind them so much as I know they're good for the soil, I just flick some soil over them so I don't see them. In most cases they squiggle back down themselves pretty quick anyway.

I adore worms. I love finding big fat ones and having a little chat with them in the palm of my hand. Incredible creatures.

0E-8 CASHMAP

Well I wouldn't be havin' an auld chat with them like Ms. River, but I no longer feel the urge to chop them in half like I used to:)

0E-8 CASHMAP

ha for you there sure is. How do you do it?

0E-8 CASHMAP

I read once that guy health started at the fingertips, which touch the soil and I loved that idea ... In a very scientific way, we SHOULD be connected to the earth!

Thank you for the tip!!! How fun is that?!

I once had a gardening friend who worked as a server in a hoity toity restaurant. He would soak his fingertips in bleach after every day in the garden that was followed by his shift serving food to hoity toity customers.

0E-8 CASHMAP

Omg BLEACH!!! that's crazy and gross.

0E-8 CASHMAP

Agreed! But his fingernails were things of wonder whenever he put down a plate before a customer. He was very well tended himself.

Everytime I think gloves are a good idea I can't do anything properly so I think bugger it, who needs nails anyway, and use my bare hands. Nothing a nailbrush can't handle. There's something rally tactile about it as well.

0E-8 CASHMAP

I only use gloves when I have to shovel a lot, use a pick ax, or move around wood and that type of thing.

0E-8 CASHMAP

Do you guys have any dangerous spiders?

0E-8 CASHMAP

Not that I know of. Do you?

0E-8 CASHMAP

I only wear gloves when working with my raspberry or others plants with thorns. Although that often doesn't really help that much either.
For other garden chores I don't wear them.

0E-8 CASHMAP

I got raspberries without thorns.

I think its late for me to make a post. I use gloves only when mixing manure not while planting the saplings. Here I use pointed knives to dig the mud and so on. Probably Iam comfortable and fast with it.

I like gardening and planting vegetables and fruits and other crops . This is very nice activity especially in the province where soil is fertilized and very spacious field . Today, vegetables and fruits are very expensive in the market . This is advantage of cultivating in our owned farm , anytime we can enjoy the harvest.
