The hoe is an essential tool, designed both for weeding the vegetable garden or ornamental garden without the use of chemical products and for working the soil on the surface. Hoeing has been part of the gardener's vocabulary since the Middle Ages, with hoeing meaning "to do twice". After hoeing, which means cutting weeds with a sharp blow at the base of the neck at the soil surface, the gardener uses the hoe for the second time to dislodge their roots, but also to loosen and loosen the superficial layer of soil. The soil is thus aerated all around the cultivated plants in the vegetable garden or ornamental garden. According to the old saying, "one hoeing is worth two waterings": indeed, under the action of watering or rain, clayey or loamy soil tends to harden as it dries, forming what is called a surface crust. Very difficult to re-moisten and suffocating for plants, this crust also promotes the upward movement of water and its evaporation. Breaking it up after watering limits the evaporation of water.
