The full moon is a period of time when absolutely any action is worth doing, after consulting your intuition. This time, which gives a lot of energy, your task is to understand how to apply it correctly so as not to waste it.

Influence of the zodiac sign
This lunar period is unfavorable for gardening work. The sign of Aquarius is an infertile sign. For sowing seeds and planting, time is considered unhelpful - the plants will lack taste and characteristic odor.
The following procedures should be abandoned:
- from sowing seeds;
- transplanting seedlings;
- planting fruit trees and berry bushes.
The sown seeds will give few shoots, the seedlings grow poorly, get sick a lot, and bring a low yield. Planting flowering crops these days leads to a small number of inflorescences, moreover, without beauty and smell, with underdeveloped stems.
On this day, the energy is unstable due to the intermediate stage between the phases of the Moon. Therefore, you should not plant and replant trees and garden bushes. Under the influence of the sign of Aquarius, seedlings develop poorly, give little fruit, often get sick and are spoiled by pests.

- carry out sanitary pruning;
- treat the garden from pests;
- clean the weeds, last year's tops;
- harvest;
- water greenhouse seedlings;
- apply organic and mineral fertilizers under the trees;
- cultivate the soil.
