People engaged in crop growing crops, do not know that the quality and amount of crop directly depends on how correctly the time was chosen for planting and leaving plants. Calculate the most favorable periods for sowing seeds and conducting various works on the plot helps the sowing calendar of the garden, speech about which will go in this article.
What is this calendar
This is a special table, which indicates the most favorable and unfavorable dates for landing for those or other crops. The sown calendar of the gardener is built, taking into account certain factors, which largely depends on the growth and development of plants. These factors include the Luna phases and its location relative to the constellations.
Also, our ancestors noticed that the night luminaires specially affects all living organisms. The lunar phases have a significant impact on the growth of cultures, then accelerating it, then slowing down. As a result of centuries-old observations, people revealed some patterns. For example, new moon or full moon are the most unfavorable time for sowing seedlings. But those plants whose seeds fell into the soil on a growing moon are quite quickly developing and go into the stem. If you plant the seedlings to decline a month, be sure that the root system of your seedlings will be very strong.
Based on these observations, the gardeners made certain conclusions and decided that it was best to plant an overhead culture on a growing moon, while the rooted crops would give a rich harvest if they sow them as decreasing a month. Due to the fact that it is possible to calculate the position of the luminaries in the sky in advance, people have the opportunity to create a sowing calendar for a year.
The position of the moon relative to zodiac constellations
All zodiac signs can be divided into three categories:
- Fertile. These include all the marks of the water element: scorpion, cancer and fish.
- Constellations of medium fertility numbers are four: Sagittarius, Taurus, Capricorn and Scales. If we sow seedlings during the period when the moon is in one of these signs, the likelihood of a good harvest will be about 50%.
- The last five zodiac constellations are considered fruitless. This means that if you plant the seedlings at the time when the moon is located in the Virgin, Aries, twins, Lev or Aquarius - you can hardly eventually collect a rich harvest.
At least some signs are considered unfavorable for sowing crops, this does not mean that it is impossible to deal with any other work on the site. Let's consider some recommendations on this subject:
- The time when the moon is in the Aries, you can pay for working with soil or breaking fruit.
- Taurus is considered the constellation of medium fertility. During this period, it is recommended to plant bulwing flowers or roots, as well as trees and shrubs. But sowing seed is better to transfer to a more favorable time.
- The moon in the twins means that you can go planting grain, legumes or curly crops. In addition, you can also pay attention to the fight against garden pests or collect fruits.
- Cancer is a fertile sign, it is suitable for sowing any plants and colors. Please note that the harvest assembled during this period will not be stored for a long time.
- When the night luminaire is located in the constellation of the lion, forbid about landing or transplanting anything. Free time can be given to pruning plants, their fertilizer, to remove weeds or work with soil.
- The Moon in Virgo is a good opportunity to process the soil, the fight against diseases and garden pests, as well as to pay attention to the colors.
- Scales provide us with the opportunity to go landing seeds and seedlings. Cultures sown during this period will be strong and sustainable diseases and parasites.
- The moon in the sign of Scorpio is a good time to plant any plants, as well as for harvesting. Fruits torn during this period will be stored for a very long time. In addition, you can also engage in preventive measures to prevent various diseases from your cultures.
- Sagittarius is a non-fermented zodiac sign. Attend sowing work for a while and turn around with watering and tidy of the garden. On a growing moon, you can collect crop fruit or medicinal herbs.
- Capricorn makes it possible to pay the time to landing grain crops and rooteploods. Such plants will be resistant to diseases, pests and frost. In this period, the harvest promises to be kept quite a long time.
- When the luminaire is in Aquarius, do so many work. Fruits, berries and medicinal herbs are better to collect on a growing moon, and vegetables are on descending.
- Planting plants at a time when the moon is in the fish, bring good crops. But the collection of fruits at this time should not be treated, because they will not be kept for a long time.
