The period is favorable for work on the ground. Cancer is considered one of the most fertile signs of the zodiac, but an important detail should be taken into account - if you plant seedlings during his reign, they will develop a magnificent root system, but their stems will not be particularly strong and often cannot withstand the weight of a ripe crop, which will be juicy. but perishable.
The most acceptable activities when the Moon is in Cancer:
- Sowing and planting crops, the fruits of which are not stored without processing.
- Soil cultivation - deep loosening, harrowing, top dressing, weed removal.
- Collection of berries and herbs, which are then salted or dried.
- Sourdough, juice extraction.
It is necessary to plant only plants that do not need a powerful stem, that is, those that are attached to the supports. The harvest will impress, but it can also damage the stem, and the fruits will grow too juicy to be preserved for a long time in their natural form. Therefore, they need to be dried, salted, pickled.
The production of juices and nectars will become timely, since the harvested berries and fruits are literally saturated with moisture.
The right time has come for active ground operations. Harrowing, plowing and digging, weeding beds, fertilizing fruit crops would be a good idea.
What is not recommended to do now:
- Planting tree seedlings, since the moment is not very favorable for the development of a strong trunk.
- Spraying with insecticides.When the moon is in the constellation of Cancer, it is impossible to use chemicals to combat pests, fungal diseases, because plants absorb everything especially actively.
