Promising review: "These are perfect for my plants. They don't get gross and are not flimsy at all. I recommend these for people who need stakes but don't want ugly metal rods. Great value for the amount you get, and they are of good quality." —David Alexander Hernandez

Price: $7.69+ for 20 (available in six sizes and packs of 25)

Promising review: "The auger fit very well, is sturdy and well-made, and was a time saver. You have to be sure to use a low speed on your drill, otherwise it will get away from you. I would recommend this product." —Joe M

Price: $7.64+ (available in nine sizes, two colors, and in sets)

Promising review: "I combined this liquid fertilizer with water as per the instructions, and my hydrangeas immediately looked healthier!!" —Gabrielle Isaacs

Price: $9.59+ (available in three sizes)

Promising review: "Perfect for labeling germinations' names and then transferring them to the soil area. Easy to label and reuse for gardening purposes." —BryteVisuals

Price: $9.99 for 100 (also available in another style)

Promising review: "An excellent kneeling mat, seems very tough and is nice and thick, very lightweight. Will save your knees when working on certain projects. A must-have, especially if you have bad knees." —Anthony DelPercio

Promising review: "My garden inevitably is subjected to powdery mildew every year! This is the only product that helps keep it at bay; it works especially well if you treat plants you’re aware will attract powdery mildew prior to its arrival." —Stacey M

Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for. It is large enough to hold a lot of water without having to refill it many times. The handle options of being on top and the side are very convenient. I like the long spout, making it easier to get closer to the plant without having to damage the leaves. Even though it's plastic, it feels sturdy and seems like it will last a long time. I like the removal end to make the water flow out like a shower or in a stream. The color green is very dark and nice. It is very lightweight. Overall, I am very pleased with it. It's better than the ones I've seen in stores." —bookworm

Price: $17.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors)

Promising review: "This is a great product for my soap floss tree. I'm looking forward to blooms in October. The last two years, it has not. I was able to dilute it and distribute 6 gallons of fertilizer throughout the drip line, and the tree that immediately came back was stronger. Greener leaves, there's no odor, and I love how it's organic. The value for the money is incredible. I'll be able to use this year after year." —Tony Tona

Price: $21.99+ (available in three sizes)

Promising review: "10/10. This product smells so good and keeps the little flies away from my plants!" —Carissa

It comes with ground stakes to keep it in place, too!

Promising review: "This is the weed barrier to buy! Having two massive rolls of super-thick barrier would cost at least double, if not more, at a local store. The quality is really heavyweight but also easily maneuverable. It cuts easily and does not fray too badly. The ground stakes are also really hearty and fasten everything in place securely." —Cody Rodgers

Promising review: "I love these cute little bugs. I use them every time I water my plants. In fact, I bought a second set so as to have one in each plant room. Great tool for those who tend to over- or underwater their plants. Easy to read for these old eyes. Price is right too." —Vixx

The seven-piece kit includes a weeding fork, cultivator, weeder, transplanter, trowel, folding stool, and tool bag.

Promising review: "When I saw this product, I needed to purchase it for myself. I have been into gardening lately, and spend a lot of time outside. My back always hurts from bending over, or my knees ache. So having this chair low enough to the ground is so convenient! I also love that it comes with the tools and the tool bag attached to the chair. It folds flat for easy storage. I love it! —sheena bostick

Price: $24.22 (also available in an 11-piece set)

Promising review: "I'm new to houseplants and needed something compact and easy to maneuver, and these fit the bill. They are high quality, cut well, and fit nicely in my hand. They are easy to lock and unlock. Couldn't ask for more." —Anysia

Price: $5.07+ (available in three colors and multipacks)

Mr. Stacky is a small business based in Florida making stackable planters.

Promising review: "I absolutely love this! I have used it to plant strawberries, lemon balm, English ivy, creeping Jenny, cauliflower on top, lavender, oregano, and parsley. It hooks together easily, and it can be taken apart if you have to move it. It normally stays outside, however, we are having a winter freeze right now, so I had to bring it in. I am constantly sending the link to my friends and family because they love it also." —Cynthia Stoker

Promising review: "I love these crystals. The heat is here, and this product keeps my plants in containers from drying out so fast and dying. With these moisture control crystals, I can even leave home for a couple of days with no worry." —Peggy Ryan

Price: $13.37 (also available in multipacks)

Promising review: "I recently tried this, and it’s exactly what I needed for outdoor activities! The hat fits well and provides excellent protection from both the sun and bugs. The built-in netting is light and breathable, so it doesn’t feel suffocating, and it effectively keeps insects away. It’s perfect for hiking, gardening, or any outdoor adventures where bugs are a concern. It’s comfortable and easy to wear for extended periods. Highly recommend for anyone who spends time outdoors and needs extra protection!" —Savannah

Price: $19.99+ (available in four sizes, nine colors, and a two-pack)

This gadget has two needles to ensure accuracy and doesn't require batteries. Just push it 2–4 inches into the ground and select what you want to test for.

Promising review: "This is one of my favorite tools that I’ve gotten since I’ve started gathering and caring for indoor plants. The moisture meter has definitely shown me the error of my ways, and I’m learning from those mistakes! The light meter has come in handy recently, now that my area is starting to stay warm enough to leave plants outside. Not only is it super handy, but it’s also a great learning tool. Highly recommend!" —Brittany Leigh

Grampa's Gardenware Co. is a family-owned small business based in Oregon that makes gardening tools.

Promising review: "Wow! Just wow! This tool is like the holy grail of tools! I have never been this excited over a gardening tool! I am not someone who spends a lot of time gardening, as I am a beginner, and worms freak me out. But this glorious wand works so well that I want to buy it for all my friends. It’s freaking great!! I have common juniper growing all over this one section, and this helped me pull them out with little effort!! If you garden, buy it! Have weeds? Buy it! Can’t bend down? Just buy it!!!" —Maria

Promising review: "These sticky things are amazing. Eazy peezy. Just place them into the soil, and that sticky part begins to attract all and any bugs." —wanda f.

Price: $5.68 for 36 traps (available in five styles and a larger pack)

Promising review: "Using this eliminated having to spray for bugs and the blackspot that roses get, and fertilizes at the same time, it’s a win-win! I have eight rose bushes in my yard, and it can be a daunting task to keep blackspot and the bugs from damaging my roses. This saved me time and money spent on sprays and extra fertilizer, not to mention the beautiful blooms on the rose bushes!" —A. Brock

Price: $14.24+ (available in two styles and two sizes)

Promising review: "Not only do the blue granules look cool, but it works exceptionally well and lives up to its name. Comes with a measuring scooper, easy to use. The plants will thank you for using it with beautiful, healthy-looking leaves and branches. Highly recommend." —Alan

Promising review: "New gardener's best friend. This fertilizer saved my young sweet potato plants and got them back on track! I live in zone 8a 7b, where it is extremely hot and humid. I took my time with sprouting my sweet potatoes and grew beautiful, strong, and healthy slips. I took the time to harden them off before planting and gave them the ideal soil and growing conditions. What I hadn't accounted for was the extreme heat and full sun that scorched the tender young leaves and vines. My poor plants were not growing and began to shrivel up to a crisp. I knew there was no way any tubers would form if the leaves could not take in the sun and photosynthesize.

So I mixed this fertilizer in with fresh growing medium, then topped off my beds. I knew rain was coming, so I let them have a good drink. A week later, I had large leafy greens and healthy vines growing in. Now my plants can take in the sun and convert it to the energy needed to develop healthy sweet potatoes. I've since added partial shade to help buffer the direct sun as well. If you need to get your plants off to a strong start, this fertilizer is a must. Your leaves, roots, and fruit will thank you!" —Kena Hayes

Promising review: "Works as expected! Had lots of luck with this product this year. I was able to save a lot of money by using this to propagate new plants from existing plants all summer long. I will be purchasing this again next spring!" —Kimberly E

Price: $7.99 (also available in multipacks)

Promising reviews: "Whenever you're dealing with plants that absolutely need a high acidic level, such as mountain laurels, and you need that soil to be quickly fixed, Earth Science delivers. Nobody wants to buy a plant for $50+ and then watch it die for something as easy to fix as the pH level. When dealing with citrus, hydrangeas, rhododendron, azaleas, and mountain laurel, I always have fast-acting sulfur and lime to adjust quickly. Highly recommended." —Beegirl950

"I moved to a house with a struggling hydrangea and was new to gardening. I got it to look nicer, but it didn’t flower for two years. I put this on them in the third year, and they did great. I was able to provide florals for an event and still have a very bushy hydrangea full of beautiful blue flowers." —Shannon

Promising review: "Scott Weed & Feed worked very well on my lawn. It helped kill the weeds while also feeding the grass, and I noticed my lawn starting to look greener and healthier after using it. It was easy to apply and covered the yard nicely. I like that it handles two jobs at once, controlling weeds and strengthening the grass. With regular watering and proper application, it really helped improve the overall appearance of my lawn. I would recommend Scott Weed & Feed to anyone looking to get rid of weeds and bring their grass back to life." —Beverly

Price: $16.13+ (available in four sizes and a liquid version)

Promising review: "Love these lights. They work great. Come on before it's totally dark. They are so cute and put out a lot of light for something so small. They do sway in the wind and you can move the little arms around how you like them." —Kristina Mcmillen

Price: $9.49 for two (also available in larger quantities)

Promising review: "These lights are phenomenal. They work just as they should, and look beautiful. They go up very easily and seem to be a great quality." —Jodi L Alexander

Price: $18.95+ (available in seven sizes)
