Power Planter now brings you the DIY Guru Garden Auger. This auger drill bit digs through hard soil and makes planting trees, shrubs, and annuals a breeze.

The DIY Guru Auger measures 3 in thick and 12 inches long and can dig holes up to 11 inches deep. This drill auger bit for planting is designed to leave a small amount of loose soil in the bottom of the hole to help a new plant grow. The auger bit features a hardcore 5/8-in steel shaft, rugged, 10-gauge flighting, 3/8-in non-slip hex drive, and is painted with glossy black enamel. This earth auger makes solid, thick, consistent welds, while the hex head stays secure in the drill chuck, even in compacted soil.

Review: Excellent Value, Excellent Product, Drills Right Through Clay - The best digging and gardening product I have purchased. Holes for fence post; holes for small trees, you name it. This product was suggested on Consumer Reports so I thought I would give it a try for my outdoor work and it is awesome. I recommend it to anyone that may have a yard full of clay. It will drill right through the clay...give it a try. Review: Excellent for soil borings prior to planting flowers - I am a geologist, so this auger was excellent. I tried both a battery-powered drill and a 110-volt drill. Both work OK, but if 110-volts is available, then use a power extension cord. The 110-volt drill has better torque. I was pleased to learn that the soil auger also works in a horizontal position. Was able to shear the hard clayey soil and loosen it up. Previously, I used an 8-inch deep auger, but now realize that the 12-inch deep auger is far better and more versatile. This auger helped to drill a garden hole about two feet wide and two feet diameter. That hard clayey soil was excavated by a soil-scoop, then discarded. The new soil was pea-gravel at the base, then organic potting soil mixed with coarse clean sand. The extra-large hole is then backfilled with the new soil, and the future roots will extend downward where the residual moisture is located. The hexagonal shaft fits into the 3-jaw drill chuck, so there is no slippage while digging into hard soil. This soil auger is strongly recommended. It saves back-breaking work with a shovel and trowel. ## Features - POWERFUL GARDEN DRILL AUGER: Our garden-digging tool is designed as an alternative to post-hole diggers, bulb planters, or shovels for digging holes.

If you want more details about this auger, just continue to read on. Due to the pandemic, I spend more time than ever in my house. As I spent more time in my house including the backyard, I found that the backyard is an eyesore to me and my family. Before the pandemic, I worked six days a week and I never really have anytime to go to the backyard. It was pretty much untouched, and weeds overgrew everywhere. Now I have a lot of time everyday, and I decided to work on the backyard to make it look better. Since the backyard never received any maintenance, the soil was as hard as rock. After spending a morning in the backyard, I barely loose any soil and my arms felt sore. I ended up buying this auger after some google search. This auger really makes digging so much easier and it saved my arms. The only down side about this auger is that you need a powerful drill preferable impact drill if your soil is hard like mine. Nevertheless, this auger does a great job in digging and I would recommend it to anyone who need help in digging. ## Frequently Bought Together - Power Planter DIY Guru Garden Auger- 3"x12" Drill Bit Hole Digger for Post Hole Diggers,Bulb Planter Tool- Auger Drill for Planting- Garden Auger Digging Tool- 3/8" Non-Slip Hex Drive (Blue) - Advance Termite Bait System Kit Whitmire Micro-Gen Termite Bait Systems for Insects - Trelona Advance Termite Bait Cartridge II (6 pack) Whitmire Micro-Gen Termite Bait Systems --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/559012254-power-planter-diy-guru-garden-auger-3x12-drill-bit-hole](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/559012254-power-planter-diy-guru-garden-auger-3x12-drill-bit-hole) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-11*
