To be sure of the accuracy of the calendar, to find out all favorable and unfavorable terms for agrotechnical work, try to draw up a gardener's calendar yourself.
It is necessary
a calendar showing the state and position of the moon
Instructions
Step 1
To draw up a calendar, try to correctly determine the state of the moon. Look, if the sickle can be mentally drawn up to the letter "P", then the moon is growing. If you see that the sickle looks like the letter "C", then feel free to conclude that the moon is waning. It is not visible - it means that today is a new moon, this is the first day of the growth of the moon. You can find out in advance all the features of the lunar cycle using the usual calendar (for example, a tear-off).
Step 2
With the growing moon, nutrients go mainly to the development of the aerial part of the plant, so try to give the plants foliar (leaf) feeding. With the waning moon, pay attention to the accelerated development of the root system.
Step 3
The day before the full new moon or after a day after its start, plan to clean up dead plants, dead leaves, and other chores. In no case should planting be carried out on these days.
Step 4
During the growth of the moon, energy goes up the stem of the plant, be attentive to the plants during this period. During the waning of the moon, root formation is effective, plants have large energy costs. Do not miss this moment - actively water, use root formation stimulants.
Step 5
To draw up a plan for planting and work for each day, determine the position of the moon in a particular sign of the zodiac. She spends two days in each constellation, and a lot depends on this: the ability of plants to heal wounds, fertility, etc.
Step 6
If the Moon is in Libra, plan to plant and transplant plants. In the sign of Virgo, it is best to carry out treatment against weeds and pests.
Step 7
Plants planted during the influence of the fertile signs of the Zodiac: Taurus, Scorpio, Pisces and Cancer will develop well. As a last resort, plant when the Moon is in Libra or Capricorn, they will also give a good harvest.
Step 8
Under no circumstances should you plant and sow on a day when the Moon is in Aquarius. This is the most unfavorable sign for plants, carry out weeding, loosening, pinching on this day, fight pests and weeds.
Step 9
Pay attention to the time indicated next to the sign of the zodiac, this is the time when the moon enters this constellation. Indicate in your calendar when you can start a scheduled event.
