I use an azada, basically the same design as a mattock but sounds more fancy in Spanish.  Same idea of a small spade shaped blade at 90° to a long handle.

Really good for earthing up and digging out the trenches in the first place.  Took half the time as with a spade on its own.

I use my right angled fork, purchased from the same website, it is my favourite general digging/earthing up tool. Used it today for that very purpose! ;D
If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴
