The earth separating member is a hollow, triangular body formed by opposing triangular plates maintained in spaced apart relation by edge plates around the periphery. The triangular plates are preferably isosceles triangles, the shaft bisecting the base, the vertex opposite the base pointing downward. In use, the triangular body is pressed into aerated soil to form a V-shaped plating hole, and may be rotated 180° to form a conical hole.
