dibbling
Making soil holes
Dibbling is the act of making small holes in the ground for planting seeds or bulbs, typically using a pointed tool called a dibble or dibber.
The technique allows for precise spacing and depth: She spent the afternoon dibbling holes for the tulip bulbs.
The word also describes a traditional fishing method of letting bait dip repeatedly into the water.
