Influence of a lunar day

9 lunar day

On the 9th lunar day, the plants are again filled with vital activity and energy, especially their terrestrial part. This is a good time for most gardening work.

What needs to be done:

  • sow, plant and transplant plants;
  • dive seedlings;
  • cut strawberries, as well as carry out other manipulations with the crop that will lead to a good harvest;
  • loosen and cultivate the soil.

This lunar day allows you to plant and transplant any plants, as well as fight garden pests. Water the plants with care.

On these lunar days, it is good to mow the grass, as well as plant trees. You can cut flowers and make bouquets out of them: the lunar influence favors their long storage. All of the harvested crop of fruits grown above the surface of the earth will also be well preserved. You can also make homemade items.

What kind of backyard work the day has a negative effect on: it is better not to engage in pruning and removing shoots. Such work on the 9th lunar day disrupts the normal sap flow, leading to the death of the plant. Digging up tuberous plants is also not recommended.

Influence of the day of the week

Tuesday

According to the lunar calendar, Tuesday is such an active day that you can “move mountains”, and the results of all the actions you have taken exceed all expectations. This activity is explained by the fact that this day is under the influence of the “red planet” - Mars.

By choosing Tuesday to work in the garden, you will be rewarded for your efforts many times over. It is important to note that even the most difficult work will be easy on Tuesday, and your energy will quickly recover.

For this day, you can not hesitate to plan planting, cultivation of the soil, as well as uprooting or pruning of trees. This is the only way you will get an excellent result, while making a minimum of effort. On Tuesday, it is also recommended to carry out not only planting plants, but also their fertilization.You can harvest, especially if you want the plants to continue to bear fruit well and not get sick. This is a good day for stocking up products like home spins.

So on Tuesday you can also do the following:

  • Implement voluminous work on the personal plot.
  • Perform soil preparation, planting and fertilization of plants.
  • Replenish stocks for long-term storage.

Moon phase influence

First quarter

The first quarter of this period is considered the most appropriate time to stimulate organs above the ground, in the vegetative part of the plant. Natural juices and the so-called forces of the earth in the first quarter are concentrated in it, which allows the leaves and stems to actively develop. It is worth thinking about sowing cereals or planting plants whose fruits ripen inside the soil. This stage is considered suitable for the cultivation of medicinal herbs.

Drip application of liquid and fertilizer in low concentrations will be beneficial for your garden and garden flora. And for more intensive growth, it is worthwhile to do the pinching and removal of dying leaves. But you should not engage in aesthetics on the lawn: the grass on the growing moon will recover as quickly as possible. Grafting, planting plants in a permanent place and pinching will be successful, but it is better not to touch young seedlings, because in the first quarter of the lunar cycle they are especially sensitive.

It is better to start harvesting fruits from plants that produce fruits above the ground. It is they who, during the first quarter of the growing moon, are endowed with a pleasant taste and extraordinary juiciness. It is worth thinking about collecting spices, herbs and plants for making homemade tea. Remember also that flowers cut in the first quarter of the growing moon will delight you in a vase for a long time, and vegetables that you fermented or pickled will get a pleasant aftertaste.

The positive impact of the growing moon:

  • Planting plants and active watering will have a beneficial effect on the yield;
  • The growth of flora stimulates loosening of the soil and the introduction of weak dressings;
  • The harvest harvested during the return of the moon to heaven has a delicate taste;
  • An excellent time for pickling and pickling vegetable stocks.

Negative influence:

  • You should not carry out serious manipulations with seedlings, they are too vulnerable;
  • Mature plants run the risk of saping if they interact with their trunks.
