nice presentation. However I think its not really depicting the real hard effort that is required of such digging for most people in most situations. I think double digging usually requires penetrating some of the "hard pan" you refer to at the beginning of your video. I use a rotary hoe now, due to my shoulder acting up after years of double digging...lol...but I still do hand dig on occasion due to the benefits associated and to flog less with the tiller. Great Vid, keep up the good work :)

Great video... thanks for the tips.

That is a spade; at least in Missouri it is one. Post-hole digger has two handles and a hinge.

that's not a spade. That's a post-hole digger.

Good and helpful video. Nice soil too! You should try that with my heavy loam! Some may say that this is not double-digging, technically, because the second spit (subsoil) remains where it started, but the effect is the same, and the top-soil/sub-soil separation is preserved. Breaking-up the second-spit is a good opportunity to work in some soil improver to keep it open and well drained.

arv301, the hard ground meant that a trench digger was most advantageous for the conditions!

@robinsong...well here in north central tx where the ground is full of limestone we call it a spade because a normal spade does not work.

Great demonstration of double digging. We are looking forward to some very fertile soil.
I suggest a bit more explanation of the benefits of double digging.
