 Gardena fruit collector: how to choose

The criteria for choosing a fruit collector for each gardener are different. Someone is guided exclusively by the price, someone takes into account the volume of the harvest that he will have to face. Whatever one may say, but a modern tool that facilitates the care of fruit trees cannot be cheap.If the summer resident does not collect the fruits in time, then part of the harvest will deteriorate. Why take such a risk when you can buy Gardena attachments and be fully armed. Fruit Collectors are also popular because, in addition to harvesting, they help to maintain the garden area. It is enough to hold the roll on the grass, as it will contain all the small debris.

Care and storage

The Gardena fruit collector does not require any special maintenance, except for cleaning the working surfaces from dirt and storing in a dry place. Considering that metal elements are included in the design of some attachments, a humid environment is contraindicated for such instruments. The manufacturer also pays attention to the reusable cotton picker bag, which should be washed as needed.
