About this deal

Following the British Growing Award in 2018, this item was a winner for its 330mm diameter with square holes across the base that are each adjacent to one square centimetre. Unlike most plastic products, this should be durable enough to compensate for its environmental impact. If you are looking to compost more effectively and reduce food waste, as well as aim to reduce the number of products imported from overseas by growing your own produce, this product may be one worth considering. Apollo Gardening 1/4-inch 6mm Metal Garden Riddle/Sieve A garden sieve can be useful for a variety of tasks around your garden, including washing gravel or a hydroponic/aquaponic medium and washing homegrown produce to take off the dirt before taking it indoors. Smaller mesh sieves are also helpful for separating seeds from the chaff when you want to use them in cooking next year or sow them.

This product is suitable for anything you might need it to do- from creating smooth soil and compost to performing heavy duty gardening projects. Although the price point is low, this option exceeds expectations. UPP Garden Sieve 2-in-1 Adjustable Mesh When you're sifting wet soil or compost, be sure to let it dry first. The ground will become more efficient when the process is made easier as a result of drying instead of being damp and hard to work with. The decision between these two items can depend largely on what task you plan on using them for whether through compaction or just filtering material such as moss from water tanks. Prater Rotary Sifters harness the power of centrifugal force to fluidize and accelerate particles toward the screen surface. The sifter inlet is specially fitted with an auger that moves materials into the screening chamber, where rotor paddles accelerate the particles outward. Finer particles pass through the screen and are discharged into a large hopper. Rotor paddles are precisely pitched to force coarser material to the end of the chamber, where they are expelled into a separate discharge hopper. Over-size and near-size particles interact with the screening surface during operation, causing a natural vibration in the fabric that enhances free flow. The rotating drum is positioned perfectly so that the sieved material can fall into a wheelbarrow conveniently placed underneath the drum. Because the drum is positioned at an angle, the unwanted coarse material falls into a container placed behind the rotating drum. In this manner, both sieving and separating are performed at the same time.

The mixing process – and the mixing of different soil types – can also be done with the rotating sieve. Moreover, if you are unfortunate enough to have stony ground, you can sieve the stones from the soil and return the stone free soil to your garden. Even the children’s sandpit can be regularly cleaned and sieved. The Tierra garden sieve is made of recycled materials and polypropylene, so you don’t have to feel too bad about using it. The frame on this model looks like the UPP garden sieve, which means that it will be equally as robust for any task at hand!

If you have a lot of soil or compost to sift, then a smaller tray like one of those mentioned above may not be the easiest way to proceed. You could consider getting more serious with a 560 x 400 rotary soil sieve with a crank handle to turn to get the material through. The depth of the drum is 150mm. The galvanized wire mesh is extremely strong, weather-resistant and can hold a lot of dirt at once. This makes it perfect for those who like to plant large gardens with lots of plants! The rotating drum is positioned perfectly so that the sieved material can fall into a wheelbarrow conveniently placed underneath the drum. Our units are easy to maintain and designed for many years of maintenance-free life. Self-cleaning screen fabrics ensure that the Rota-Sieve® can separate to 200-mesh size without the need for anti-blinding mechanisms. With the Scheppach rotating sieve you can refine large quantities of compost and separate it from the bulk. The ripe compost can be sieved out to produce potting compost or fine material to be mixed with garden soil.

This steel sieve is powder-coated, meaning it will last a long time. The mesh size is also larger at 6mm so it can screen out smaller stones and debris better than the option above. Overall I love this product. Unlike many other plastic sieves, UPP’s product feels very sturdy and like it will not break after only a few uses. It is made of polypropylene which makes it more durable than metal ones (and means no rust issues). The UPP garden sieve includes two interchangeable types of mesh - a 4mm mesh and a 10mm one. These meshes can be used together or independently, depending on your needs at the time (clearing pond water vs removing weeds from the soil). Our rota-sieves are also ideal for the sifting, scalping and classifying of a wide variety of particles and products, including:
