Comments (12)gdionelli: I am not certain that I would recommend the use of any soil auger in a rocky soil, especially some of the "lighter" weight ones that I own and have seen in my searches on the web. Even though the Pro Gardening Auger System is very well built of industrial steel, I still would be a little cautious using it under rocky soil conditions. But that begs the question of how rocky is your rocky soil. In one area of our garden there is a layer of small rocks (pebbles) on top of a weed prevention mat with soil underneath. With some great effort, I removed a "junk" plant of some kind - along with some weeds - and planted a Syringa vulgaris 'Sensation' PICOTEE LILAC in its place with the use of a shade and a shovel (to remove the excess pebbles.) I don't believe that I would have done otherwise - even if I had this auger at the time. Should anyone be interested in the 'Sensation' Lilac - here's the link: http://www.forestfarm.com/search/closeup.asp?PlantID=syvu545 Quite frankly, I would really hate to see anyone spend $39.95 plus shipping and end up being disappointed with my high recommendation because of its possible poor performance or insufficient use in a rocky soil. Perhaps someone will respond to your question with more experience than I. And if you don't see a response in a few months - post it as a question. My apologies for not being more helpful on this point! Bill Here is a link that might be useful: Syringa vulgaris 'Sensation' PICOTEE LILAC...See MoreNobles hunting gilt bronze plaque in relief

Comments (33)I, like most of you have tried several gutter covers. My house has several large trees near it, some are the sweet gum trees that have these prickly balls about 1" in diameter. They will clog your downspout or gutter quickly, it only takes 2 or 3 of them to completely stop the water flow. I have tried some of the reverse flow models but maple tree "helicopters" pretty much eliminated them and I would have had to lower my gutters to make them work properly. I have also tried wire mesh etc. and all have some drawbacks. I installed Leaf-Relief guards on my house myself. They are relatively easy to install. They are very well made, come in 10' lengths instead 3'or 4' and I think they will be the best thing I have tried so far. The lip on the front seems to be a trap for debris but if you watch the cover work, the lip acts as a guide to prevent the water from going over the gutter during a heavy rain. My only issue so far is that my 2-story house has a lower roof over my garage. The builder ran downspouts from the upper roof to the lower roof and the upper roof drains directly onto the lower roof. During a heavy rain the water runs over the top of the Leaf-Relief guards. They can't absorb that much water quickly enough. I e-mailed alcoa and they said that the upper gutters should drain directly into the lower gutters not onto the roof. This is really not that big of an issue, there has to be a substantial rain to overflow this and it is only in an area of about 1 foot. Considering the cost ($3 ft.), I think this will work as well as anything else. There is going to be some maintenance with any of the gutter covers and these will probably be a minimum of effort to maintain. They do still work even if there are leaves on them and they stay relatively clean on their own but will certainly need to be brushed off occasionally, that's better than what I've been dealing with for the last 15 years or so. I hope this helps some of you, I have been dealing with this for a long time, it has gotten so bad for me that I lately have had to clean the gutters everytime rain was predicted in my area.
