I'm with team no gloves, I can't feel what I'm doing with gloves on. I do take a glove out with me when I work in the garden so that I have something to grab a thistle or nettle with, but odds are I'll just use the trowell to expose some roots and pick it up with those.
My hands are a mess of scratches and the dirt under my finger nails takes for ever to shift but my plants thrive because i can feel them and the soil they are in.
