Trowel doesn't really have an antonym. The definition of trowel is "A flat bladed tool used to work with mortar or to dig holes for plants." You could say cover, or bury, since the trowel is used to dig holes for planting? Hope that helps.
The best thing to do is purchase a good trowel to work with, possibly from your local home improvement store. After you have the correct tool it will make digging your trowel so much easier.
