The influence of a lunar day
The waning moon does not contribute to productive activities in the garden area. All plants during this period seem to freeze, stopping in growth and almost not responding to external influences. On the 26th lunar day, it is best to plan further work, purchase equipment, seeds and fertilizers.
Garden work such as pruning and removing damaged and unnecessary branches and shoots, cleaning fallen leaves, and pest and disease control will be successful.
Gardeners can harvest carrots, beets, potatoes, remove excess shoots, dried tops and leaves. It is recommended to do top dressing and spraying of plants, dig up or loosen the soil. The day is suitable for cleaning the site: weeding, thinning seedlings, cleaning unnecessary plantings.
The 26th lunar day is not suitable for watering seedlings and working with plant roots.
The day has a positive effect on:
- cleaning fallen leaves, weeding weeds and unnecessary plantings;
- pruning trees and shrubs, feeding, spraying against pests;
- improving the quality of the soil: loosening, digging, fertilizing.
Negative impact of the day:
- watering any plantings on the site;
- work with plant roots.
Day of the week influence
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, 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
At this time, the activity of plants begins to gradually decrease, all their energy and power accumulate in the rhizome.
Things to do
Since the plants are not currently disposed to rapid growth and the formation of young shoots, it is worth doing cleaning on the personal plot:
- ground tops;
- fallen leaves;
- weed grass;
- dried plants;
- backyard territory.
Sick or dead shrubs and trees can be uprooted. The formation of the crown, pruning of lateral shoots, branches will have a good effect on the state of garden vegetation.
What is undesirable to do
The moon in the 4th waning phase is not a very suitable time for planting seedlings and sowing seeds of plants with ground-based fruit formation. Planted in a given time period, they will:
- grow weak, short;
- take root badly;
- have less resistance to disease.
To a lesser extent, this applies to bulbous and root crops, in which the underground part is the main one, so they more easily tolerate the negative impact on their upper part.
In the last phase, it is worth abandoning watering, loosening the soil, digging it up. The roots are now sensitive to external influences and can negatively respond to damage, and excessive moisture can trigger the decay process.
Fertilization is allowed. It is allowed to spray the ground parts of vegetation with special agents against diseases and harmful insects.
The harvest of root crops collected during this period will have a short shelf life, the fruits will differ in wateriness. They can be canned, like ground fruits harvested at the same time. But salting or fermenting is not desirable.
The influence of the zodiac sign
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 is impressive, 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.
Pay attention to roots and bulbs - they won't stay safe for long. Enumerate if necessary.
