Description

Ideal Tool for Installing Root Quencher Systems

The Power Planter Large Bulb Auger isn't just for planting bulbs. It's also ideally built for installing Root Quencher deep watering systems. With the auger’s 4-inch diameter, you can simply drill a hole and install the root quencher to give your plants all the water they need right where they need it. 

For the 4-inch auger, we recommend using a large cordless drill with a 1/2-inch hex drive with this large, long-handled bulb planter auger. This product will fit ½-in drills, and our cordless electric drill bundle provides the power you need PLUS a bonus battery and box – available only from Power Planter! Purchase the threaded adapter with your heavy-duty variant of this auger to fit your Stihl BT45 Powerheads.
