Even with garden gloves, any
green thumber’s hands can get muddy and dirty. This is especially true during
seed planting, deadheading, and other garden tasks requiring bare fingers.
Personally, I like to rinse
off my hands pretty often, while I am gardening. But I don’t like kicking my
shoes on and off to tromp into the hands for this purpose.
And I find it somewhat
cumbersome to detach and reattach my water sprinklers or garden hose nozzles,
just to rinse my hands.
So I have a much more
convenient solution for hand washing. I simply recycle an empty laundry
detergent bottle with a nozzle. I rinse it out completely and fill it with
clean water. Then I keep it on the counter in my potting shed. When I need to
rinse off my hands, I stick an empty bucket underneath (to catch any drips and
runoff) and have at it.
An old dishtowel is handy for
dry-offs.
Then I’m right back to the
garden – that quickly.
