Sowing calendar world of space.

It is well known that the Moon, as a celestial body located in relative proximity to the planet, has a positive and negative effect on all living beings and organisms on Earth. This effect is especially strong on stem, root crops and other crops. For this reason, it is always important to focus on the lunar gardener and gardener when planting, sowing and preparing seedlings of vegetables, flowers and fruits. After all, it indicates favorable and unsuccessful days for planting: periods when it is better to plant root crops, and when vegetables growing upwards.

How useful is the gardener's lunar calendar for 2017?

Not experienced gardener it may seem that all that is required of the gardener is to water the plant on time, remove weeds and fertilize. However, these simple steps do not always guarantee decent harvest or fruits on trees. True masters in gardening and horticulture know that there is a time for growing certain crops and plants. It is important to prepare seedlings in advance, as well as to plant everything on the right and auspicious day in the future.

Due to the fact that all plants differ in many characteristics - the period of growth and maturation, growth up or into the ground, season and features temperature regime- it is important to remember that one needs a lot of moisture, and the other a dark secluded place in the preparatory period. In order to make sure everything is done correctly, a lunar sowing calendar for 2017 has been compiled, which takes into account the peculiarities of the lunar phases and “names” favorable and not very days for working with seeds, stems and growing plants. In it you will find the dates when you can prepare seedlings, cut branches from trees, fertilize or process your crops. Using the gardener's lunar sowing calendar for 2017, you can achieve incredible results, show off your harvest to your neighbors and enjoy homemade pickles and jams made from fruits, berries and vegetables that you have grown yourself.

How does the moon affect plants?

Scientists have long found out that the moon has an incredible effect on all the fluids on our planet. Despite the relative distance from the Earth, its natural satellite is responsible for the rise and fall of the water level in rivers, seas and oceans. In the same way, the Moon influences the movement of fluids in all living organisms. That is, it stimulates the movement of juices in trees, stems and leaves of plants. In this way, moon calendar gardener and gardener for 2017 contains very useful data, thanks to which you can significantly increase the yield, get 100% seedlings after sowing "harmful" crops and not worry about the "health" of the plant.

Exists general rule, according to which, when the moon goes up, those plants are planted and sown, the main fruits of which are at the top, that is, the stem is located above the ground, and in the “waning” root crops that are underground (carrots, beets, potatoes). This is explained by the fact that during the phase of the growing moon, the juice accelerates quite quickly and the growth of the stem upwards is stimulated, respectively, all cultures receive additional development. And in the last quarter of the moon, the stems grow worse, which is to the benefit of the tubers, where all the nutrients are in the root system, which is strengthened during this period.

The lunar sowing calendar for 2017 briefly tells what is best to do during each lunar phase:

On the new moon, when the moon is hardly visible in the sky, or it looks like a thin, thin sickle, one should not plant or sow seeds. get busy preparatory work: dig up the soil, fertilize it, fill it well, remove the weeds. This will increase your chances of getting good harvest, because already in the next phase you can move on to the main thing.
In the phase of the growing moon, it is best to sow and plant / transplant any stem plants, as well as flowers growing from bulbs. It is at this time that the movement of juice in plants accelerates, which means that they grow faster, fill up nutrients. But you need to be extremely careful and careful: damage to the plant on this day can lead to a long-term disease of seedlings.
The full moon is another phase that is not completely intended for gardening and gardening work related to planting. It is better to leave for a while what you have already planted and prepare the next - tubers and root crops. It is also good to do fertilizer and watering.
During the last quarter of the moon, most plants strengthen the root system, gardeners with many years of experience devote these days to planting tuber and root crops, for which it is important what is underground, and not outside. It is believed that all useful substances will rush into the "root", and not the stem.

Also, according to the lunar sowing calendar gardener for 2017, the new moon and full moon are considered consistently inappropriate times for planting and sowing plants, since at this time growth slows down and even stops. You risk losing your crop if you plant seedlings between phases.

Is the sign of the zodiac in which the moon is located important?

The researchers found out that there are so-called "fertile" signs of the Zodiac, "neutral" and "infertile". From this it follows that the phase of the moon is important for the intensive growth of plants, as well as the position relative to the zodiac cycle. Useful information this is contained in the gardener's lunar calendar for 2017.

So, the fertile signs of the traditional include the signs of the elements Water - Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio. To neutral, or medium fertility - signs related to Earth, Air and Fire - Taurus, Capricorn, Libra and Capricorn. And here are the completely barren signs of Fire, Air and Earth - Aries, Gemini, Virgo, Aquarius, Leo. But here, too, there are a number of reservations and nuances:

Moon in: you should not start planting anything - the seeds and seedlings will quickly disappear, and you will be left without a crop. The exception is different kinds greens: dill, parsley, cilantro.
Moon in: the day is suitable for planting tubers and root crops (especially if it falls with the waning moon), bulbous vegetables and flowers, trees, shrubs.
Moon in: favors grains and legumes (depends on the phase of the moon), can take root climbing plants. Landing everything else is strictly contraindicated. Better take care of harvesting weeds or harvesting (if the moon has waned).
Moon in: you can plant anything, there is a high chance that a good harvest will be a reward for your work. Favorably in these days to care for the flowers. But the harvest harvested on such a day will not be stored for a very long time.
Moon in: one of the most "not fertile" days, postpone all planting matters. Better devote a day to care and fight pests.
Moon in: Another day that is better devoted to care than planting fresh seedlings or tubers, weed, water your plants or just skip this day.
Moon in: it is best to plant seeds for sprouting into seedlings or getting an adult plant, the harvest will be large and good.
Moon in: it’s not worth planting anything in your garden, but gardening is highly desirable - pruning trees, replanting bushes and harvesting is what is best done. The fruits collected on this day will be stored for a long time, and harvesting for the winter will last longer.
Moon in: seedlings planted these days will be sick for a long time and are unlikely to take root, but it is good to fertilize already growing, cut or harvest.
Moon in: the days are suitable for planting root crops and crops, everyone else will have a sad fate - your crop will go to pests. But you can do soil cultivation (fertilizer, weed cleaning), harvesting.
Moon in: postpone planting and transplanting on this day, better harvest. If the moon is growing, collect seeds, fruits and berries, and if the moon is waning - vegetables and root crops.
Moon in: Suitable for planting anything, but in the future these plants will require you to special attention and care. Try not to harvest, it will be stored very little.

In addition to the above rules for planting crops, depending on the location of the Moon in a certain phase and the need to avoid border conditions celestial body, there is one more important note: on the day when the Moon changes sign, any gardening work is strictly prohibited. You run the risk of harming the plant yourself and depriving yourself of the long-awaited harvest.

Of course, the lunar calendar for 2017 compiled by experienced astrologers for gardeners takes into account these features and nuances. Of course, if such a calendar is not available to you, you can independently choose suitable days for gardening. You need to take into account the phase of the moon, its zodiac sign, and also keep in mind in which month which crops are best sown and transplanted.

In those three months when it is especially cold, you can prepare fertilizers, tools and seeds. You can also work in the greenhouse, but remember that the crop harvested these days will be poor and not enriched with vitamins and nutrients. It will be much more efficient to carry out full preparation for planting - from seeds to seedlings - and plant plants already in open ground.

In order for all the crops that you plant on your site to give a rich harvest, you need not only to choose the right seeds or seedlings for planting. The main condition for obtaining a rich harvest is the choice of planting time. Since ancient times, people began to notice that crops of the same variety, planted in different time years, can give different results. Mankind has come to the conclusion that a certain connection has been established between the phases of the moon and cultures, as well as the time of their landing in open ground. So the sowing or boarding calendar, which takes into account the lunar phases and has become very popular with gardeners, gardeners and flower growers.

Key points: a calendar for gardeners and gardeners

Every gardener or gardener at least once in his life heard about such a thing as favorable days for planting. However, few have thought about the fact that in question about the connections of the Earth's satellite and cultures. The fact is that the level of the world's oceans is changing, there are ebb and flow due to the moon. Some animals also adjust their lives to this luminary. Plants are no exception and the lunar calendar can help gardeners, gardeners and flower growers.

In order to use correctly lunar calendar, you need to know some features of the interaction of the moon and plant growth. For example, on perennials, tree type, the moon is affected in a lesser way. But on vegetable crops, the cereal companion has a significant impact and this must be recognized.

The basic rule for planting crops according to the lunar planting calendar comes down to a young and waning moon. In the young moon, plants are planted that grow upwards. On the waning moon, it is customary to plant root crops that grow downwards. Gardeners have found that this is how plants grow more actively, gain strength.

The systematization of such observations allows you to create lunar sowing calendars for each year. It is noteworthy that the lunar phases do not coincide with the solar calendar. Therefore, the days on which one or another crop can be successfully planted are constantly changing. Therefore, there is a need to update the lunar landing calendar every year.

Modern technologies make it possible to update the lunar calendar with a high degree of accuracy. This significantly helps gardeners and farmers to increase productivity. Today you can find many variations of lunar calendars, in which experts recommend planting crops on a given day.

It is noteworthy that garden crops should be planted at a time when the moon is “growing”. In these phases, plants begin active development. If you plant root crops, then you need to do this a week before the renewal of the moon cycle.

On a new moon or a full moon, you should not plant any plants at all. If this rule is not observed, then it can be assumed that the crop develops poorly, and the yield is low. If you are doing garden work, then you need to pay attention to such points:

young seedlings are highly susceptible to pests, natural disasters(freezing, heavy rain). If it is problematic to deal with weather conditions, then pests can be completely destroyed. For example, in June, aphids actively begin to multiply, which in a matter of minutes can destroy tomatoes, cucumbers, and cabbage. As soon as the first traces of insect activity appear, the fight must immediately begin;
when planting tomatoes, as a rule, they select places with ideal lighting and heat levels. The land before planting the crop is prepared: fertilized, disinfected. Before applying fertilizers, pay attention to their quality. For example, fresh manure in excess can kill plants. Artificial fertilizers must not contain methane. Tomatoes are not planted next to potatoes. Otherwise, the tomato will “infect” with brown rot.

How to plant plants according to the lunar calendar

To get a good harvest of strawberries, you need to constantly (once every three years) replant the crop. Those plants that are outdated must be replaced with new bushes. Berries, as a rule, are exposed to diseases. If appeared in the garden gray rot, then you need to remove the diseased plant, carry out prevention. The remains of the plant are not thrown into compost pit, as the infection can spread to other plants. Most the best way- burn the plant.

Planting plants according to the signs of the zodiac

It has been observed that the growth rate of cultures depends on the signs of the zodiac. Astrologers believe that only a part of the twelve signs of the Zodiac can be called "fertile". The rest are "infertile". Of course, professional agronomists do not take into account such an opinion, but the idea deserves attention.

So, Pisces, Scorpio, and Cancer are considered the most fertile signs.
Infertile signs - Aries, Aquarius, Leo, Virgo.
In addition, signs of average fertility are distinguished: Sagittarius, Libra, Capricorn. Of course, Pisces in our latitudes can hardly be considered a "fertile" sign.

What should be planted according to the lunar sowing calendar at the end of May 2018

In open ground you can plant:

shallot;
Savoy, Brussels sprouts;
onion, sevok;
white cabbage, broccoli.

In Siberia and other parts of Russia, you can start planting peas, but you should act on the basis of the variety. Eggplants are planted under the film in order to move them to open ground in early June. The same can be said for corn.

The gardener's calendar also says that the end of May is best time for planting tomatoes, cucumbers, physalis and squash. You should act according to the rules:

Prepare the bed.
Make holes in it, place 1 kg of humus and a little ash in them. Mix everything with soil and water.
Landing is recommended in cloudy weather or in evening time. The weather must be calm. Compliance with the rules presented will ensure that the seedlings will not wither and grow strong and strong.

Planting spices in May

parsley;
basilica;
chicory;
oregano;
sage.

Dill should be planted, then its fresh greens will delight you all summer. The gardener's calendar says that spinach and salad should not be neglected. However, in order not to get bitter leaves in the summer, plantings will have to be replenished all the time.

What to plant from exotic

You can plant parsnips. At the same time, three seeds should come out for every 20 cm. Then the seedlings are thinned out, leaving the strongest plants.

Watercress is also suitable for planting. But he needs a large number of moisture, so cultivation should be carried out in containers. Rutabaga and chard can be cultivated at the very beginning of May, as these varieties of beets are not afraid of low temperatures.

Depending on the sign of the moon at sowing, the plants are endowed with certain qualities. Can be productive with poor quality seeds or poor with seeds High Quality high or low, fragile or strong. Therefore, sowing, planting and transplanting plants should be carried out when the Moon is in favorable signs for cultivating the land and watering. When the Moon is in the water signs of Cancer, Pisces, Scorpio, water for irrigation is used more economically, i.e. better absorbed by plants. In other signs, plants use more water. The introduction of organic fertilizers, including top dressing, is carried out on the waning Moon in Taurus, Cancer, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces. The application of mineral fertilizers, on the contrary, is best done in the same signs with the growing moon.
Have a good harvest in the coming year!

Sowing seeds

The period of time during which the Moon makes a complete revolution around the Earth is called the sidereal month of the Moon. During this time, the Moon passes through all 12 signs of the Zodiac.

Each of the signs of the Zodiac belongs to a certain element, which have their own, well-defined qualities.

The signs of Aries, Leo, Sagittarius belong to the element of Fire.

To the elements of Air - Gemini, Libra, Aquarius.

To the elements of the Earth - Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn.

To the elements of Water - Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces.

Days of Air and Light - Gemini, Libra, Aquarius.

Heat Days - Aries, Leo, Sagittarius.

Days of Cold - Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn.

Fruit Days - Aries, Leo, Sagittarius.

Root Days - Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn (fertilize these days).

Flower Days - Gemini, Libra, Aquarius (fertilize these days - we will get a lot of flowers).

The position of the Moon in the signs of the Zodiac is an external influence of certain types of energies that affect not only the growth and productivity of plants (the largest yield fluctuations depending on planting in a certain sign of the Zodiac are seen in potatoes, radishes and legumes), but most importantly - on the condition of the soil .

Depending on the sign in which the Moon was at the time of sowing, the plants are endowed with certain qualities. They can be productive with poor quality seeds or poor with high quality seeds, tall or short, brittle or strong. Therefore, sowing, planting and transplanting plants should be carried out when the Moon is in favorable signs for cultivating the land and watering: Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces, taking into account the phase of the Moon for different plants. At the same time, cuttings, vaccinations, and mustache rooting are carried out.

The day of sowing the seed is considered the time when it touched the ground, or the time when we lowered it into the water for soaking. That is, as soon as moisture began to flow through the seed coat to the embryo, we can talk about the beginning of awakening. On this day, the plant's program for the harvest is laid, which cannot be changed during transplantation. Transplanting can only correct the condition of the plant. So, for example, if you sowed in Cancer, then picking in Virgo or Capricorn can root system and make the plant stem less fragile.

There is one thing in agroastrology important rule: if the sign of the Zodiac is suitable for sowing, but the phase of the moon is not suitable, then you need to focus on the sign, and work should be carried out on the last day of the moon's stay in this favorable sign. For example, good sign for sowing carrots Taurus, and the phase of the moon is growing, we are not satisfied. Then we sow in Taurus, but on the last day the Moon is in this sign. The phase of the moon on this day will have almost no effect on the growth and harvest of carrots in the future.

Watering plants

Water is used more economically for irrigation, i.e. better absorbed by plants when the Moon is in the water signs of Cancer, Pisces, Scorpio. The phase of the moon for watering does not matter. In other signs, plants use more water.

in the North and Northwestern regions I mainly water the plants closed ground and open ground ridges while the plants are still small. If the leaf apparatus has grown, it collects night moisture well and watering is not required. After rain, the ground on the ridges must be loosened, preventing moisture from evaporating. But if the leaves of neighboring plants are closed, then loosening can be omitted. In swampy areas, with constant watering, all the humus that we ourselves create is washed out, and only dust remains.

For example, they planted tomatoes in open ground, filled the holes with organic matter and mineral fertilizers. When planting, seedlings are watered abundantly, so that the water barely leaves. Then we sprinkle the surface around the plant with dry earth so that the moisture does not evaporate, and that's it. Over the summer, we never water, we don’t feed, we only loosen after the rain and form. Such tomatoes have time to turn red by mid-August.

top dressing

The introduction of organic fertilizers, including top dressing, is carried out on the waning Moon in Taurus, Cancer, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces. The application of mineral fertilizers, on the contrary, is best done in the same signs with the growing moon.

For example, you need to feed with slurry or weed infusion. We make an infusion on the waning Moon after the Full Moon in a plastic barrel (you can put it in a greenhouse). After 3-5 days, the infusion will ferment - it's time to feed. We feed this infusion twice during the season, rarely three. IN open field- only leeks.

Simple rules for the gardener:

Mineral top dressing can be carried out with the growing moon.

Organic top dressing is best done during the waning moon.

hay making

Mowing grass to facilitate drying is recommended under the Moon in a dry sign (Aries, Gemini, Leo, Sagittarius, Aquarius). Hay can rot from mowing in water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces). Grass cut near the New Moon dries faster, but the hay will be depleted in nutrients. Such hay is good for use as biofuel or for livestock bedding.

But in a rainy summer, there is no time for biodynamics, here they use any sunny day for mowing.

Moscow time is indicated in the lunar calendar

The arrival of spring for gardeners is a period of preparation for spring work in orchards and berry fields. In mid-March, the snow begins to melt. The main task at this time is the retention of melt water in the areas. To this end, scatter snow under the crowns of trees and shrubs, on ridges with strawberries and raspberries, freeing row-spacings or separate areas from it (for sowing early vegetables), so that the soil here thaws earlier and can absorb the melt water, which, as a rule, quickly flows down the frozen ground.

In the first month of spring, gardeners have more and more troubles associated with preparing for the new season. Most importantly, the sowing work begins. Albeit on the windowsill, but they must be taken seriously, because the size and quality of the future crop will largely depend on the quality of the grown seedlings.

Although in March the weather is fickle and changeable - "today drops, tomorrow a blizzard and snow in the evening", the people in Russia loved this month. After all, the fierce January and February frosts are already behind us, which is why March was affectionately called: “sunshine” (the sun is hot), “drip” (snow melts), “droplet” (“March is strong with drops”).

So the first spring month has come, which we all have been looking forward to. Its Latin name comes from Byzantium, where it was named after Mars, the god of war. Its Slavic names (sushets, sokovik, birch) reflect the low amount of precipitation, the beginning of sap flow in trees and the swelling of birch buds.

Many amateur gardeners will use the lunar seed sowing calendar for 2017, as there is a great influence of the moon on the planted flowers, fruits, vegetables, shrubs, trees and other plants.

Our sowing calendar has been designed in such a way that it will be easy and simple to use. Now there is no need to constantly monitor the moon in order to determine the lunar phase. You may be about to plant potatoes, but how to find out if this is the right day is unknown.

For this, the Lunar planting calendar is compiled to help all gardeners in getting a good harvest.

Lunar rhythms

Using the Moon in gardening and horticulture, the already known patterns of its position in the sky and its influence are taken into account. Lunar days, the descending and rising moon and its position in any signs of the Zodiac, the phases of the moon, the waning moon, the full moon, the growing moon, the new moon - each of them listed concepts indicates a rhythm that occurs in nature, the cause of which is the moon.

In ancient times, knowledge about the influence of lunar rhythms was used in gardening. If in garden work you strive to succeed - seek help from the moon.

Gardener's calendar 2017 important points

The change in the phases of the moon not only affects the actions, behavior and well-being of a person, but also provokes the growth of plants. Knowledge gradually accumulated and now we have a lunar sowing calendar, the table of which is shown below, allows every gardener to get a good harvest.

We have all heard such a thing as a favorable or unfavorable day for landing. However, few people know that good landing days directly depend on the natural satellite of the Earth.

Under the influence of the Moon, the ebbs and flows of the waters of the oceans occur, and even life cycles all living things are tuned to the activity of the moon. Plants are no exception.

For correct use lunar calendar of crops, you should learn about the basic patterns of interaction between plants and the cycles of the moon. For example, a snow-white disk has practically no effect on perennial shrubs and trees, but vegetables, chestnut, as well as cereal crops very strongly associated with the lunar phases.

The lunar sowing calendar has one very important landing rule - the rule of a young and outgoing moon. In the phase of the new moon, you need to plant plants that grow upwards, and in the waning phase, root crops that grow downwards.

This is all very simply explained - experts believe that the falling moon helps to strengthen the root system, while the leaves and stems develop slowly, otherwise the situation is with the growing moon - there is an active growth of stems, leaves and branches.

Is it wise to use a lunar sowing calendar?
You probably already have a question: do you really need to take into account all these nuances, just to grow crops for your own pleasure? Of course, it is absolutely not necessary for an ordinary gardener or gardener to know the lunar schedule.

You can plant plants at your own discretion and climatic conditions. The seeds will sprout on their own, and the seedlings will develop and bear fruit. In general, you can throw seeds into the ground as soon as the snow melts, or plant potatoes in only thawed soil. There is only 1 caveat - they will "sit" in the ground for a very, very long time.

If you coordinate your actions with the 2017 calendar, the benefits will become noticeable soon enough. The stages of growth will take place harmoniously and confidently, and the harvest will certainly please you with its quantity and size. Simply put, the lunar calendar will allow you to save time, nerves and effort, and not hope for a miracle, languishing in expectations.

No one is forcing you to follow the calendar with fantastic accuracy. It is enough just to approximately adhere to the schedule, taking into account the favorable and negative moments for landing. If you miss a day or two, it's okay - there are many nuances in nature, whether it's heavy rain, a sudden heat wave or a brief cold snap. In each month there are several periods favorable for specific plants. Here you can download the lunar sowing calendar, because it can be useful to you even in winter - all of a sudden you decide to start growing crops on your windowsill or in a properly equipped greenhouse.

Days of Leaf, Root, Fruit, Flower

When the moon passes through the signs of the zodiac Pisces, Scorpio, Cancer - this time is called "leaf days", since the rhythms of the moon have the greatest influence on the foliage. How will this help you in practice? If you loosen the earth on the lettuce beds these days, it will grow very lush and more productive.

When the Moon passes through the signs of the zodiac Capricorn, Virgo, Taurus - this time is called the "days of the Root" since the rhythms of the Moon have a great influence on the root system of plants. Radishes, beets, carrots and all other root crops are also recommended to be weeded during Root days.

When the moon passes through the signs of the zodiac Sagittarius, Aries, Leo - this time is called the "days of the Fruits." Beans, cucumbers and tomatoes will thank you with spectacular fruits if you dive, weed and loosen the soil on the days of the Fruit.

When the moon passes the signs of the zodiac Aquarius, Libra, Gemini - this time is called the "days of the Flower". They are recommended for planting and caring for flowers. If possible, cut flowers for bouquets on Flower Days, so that they will stand in a vase much longer.

- In sunny and lunar eclipses any work in the garden or garden is undesirable.
- It is strictly not recommended to work in the garden or garden on the days of New Moons or Full Moons.
- Do not sow seeds or plant seedlings when the Moon is in the signs of Aquarius and Leo.
- Plants will not develop fully if you plant them during the transition of the satellite from one of one sign of the Zodiac to another.
