Lateral Thinking Puzzles - third time is best!

Making cheese ?

Are invertebrates relevant?

Are you using it for something related to gardening? Home maintenance? (Non-human) animals?

Is it a massage tool?

Are you trying to compress dirt?

No

No (well, not directly)

Gardening

If you mean “am I using it to massage myself”, No

No

Compress gravel?
Paver base?
Concrete?
I’m guessing:
Are you making a path?
Are you making a patio?

Are you using to to make an automated soil sieve/sifter ?

None of those.

Something to do with worms

Smoothing out the ground?

Digging a ditch?

Does the vibrator come into contact with a plant? With the soil?

Is it useful for gardening purposes because it vibrates? Because of the sound it makes? Because of its shape / look?

No

No to both.

Yes, with a plant.

Because it vibrates.

Anything to do with pollination?

Weed(s)?
Flower(s)?
Grass(es)?
Cactus(i)?

Are you trying to get pollen out of the plant?
Seeds?

Imitating a woodpecker?

Yes.

Flowers (That is, I’m using it on the flowers of a particular plant.)

Now that you’ve basically got it, what am I trying to accomplish?

collecting pollen from plants (corn?) to brush on selected flowers to get the variety of fruit/grain you are desiring?

Persuading a plant to set seed which won’t do so without vibrations caused by or mimicking the effect of a natural pollinating creature disturbing the flower?

(help. If that’s right, I don’t have one ready; and my one attempt at coming up with one of these puzzles was an instantly-solved failure.)

That’s it. I’m growing tomatoes, which can self-pollinate but need a bit of a shake to do so. Turns out, a vibrator is ideal for pollinating tomatoes.
