The influence of a lunar day

18 lunar day

During this period, the Moon is in the waning phase. The vital activity of plants is declining: nutrients for the most part accumulate in the roots. Therefore, gardening work should be minimized.

It is best to devote this day to caring for the plants that form root crops. For example, potatoes, onions, Jerusalem artichoke, radishes, carrots are planted or harvested. During this period, many nutrients accumulate in the tubers.

Ripe seeds of crops producing root crops (radish, onion) now have a high germination rate.

It is possible to carry out surface loosening, careful removal of weeds, thinning. It is not advisable to feed the plants. It is also better to postpone irrigation work until later (with the exception of drought).

Vegetable beds, a flower garden and indoor plants should be left alone - now it is undesirable to disturb them.

But you can cut off excess branches and shoots of trees, plant seedlings. Manipulations with grafting fruit crops, as well as pinching grape shoots will go well.

The day is suitable for:

  • planting root crops;
  • collection of root crops and seeds of these crops;
  • planting tree seedlings, forming a crown, grafting and pinching.

The day is not suitable for:

  • active loosening and digging of beds;
  • fertilization;
  • irrigation works;
  • care of any herbaceous plants not related to root crops.

Influence of the day of the week

Monday

On the first day of the week, the influence of the moon is paramount on human life. Having the peculiarity of introducing chaos and confusion in all matters, the celestial body can significantly spoil even those plans that did not seem to bring any special difficulties in implementation.Astrologers advise against planning global events for Monday, as the hostess of the day can turn everything upside down. If you cannot transfer the planned affairs, then you should listen to your own attitude. Perhaps the Moon itself will tell you how to behave in a given situation.

In the garden and in the garden, you can do mediocre things, the implementation of which will definitely not be able to harm the future harvest or flowering of plants.

It is strongly undesirable to arrange pruning of trees and shrubs. Such actions may not only fail to bring the expected fruiting and rapid flowering, but also ruin green spaces.

On Monday, new seedlings are not planted, and old plants are not transplanted from one place to another. Even the most favorable weather conditions will not help to overcome the influence of the moon, so survival rate and yield will be defective.

It is better to devote this day to:

  • care for existing green crops.
  • Cleaning dry foliage,
  • fertilization of the soil and control of plant pests.
  • picking ripe berries, fruits and vegetables.
