Influence of a 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;

- planting tree seedlings, forming a crown, grafting and pinching.
The day is not suitable for:
- active loosening and digging of beds;
- fertilization;
