The influence of a lunar day

20 lunar day

During these lunar days, the vital forces of the flora completely go into the roots, which prompts the idea of ​​working with the vegetative part of the plant. Working with roots is strictly prohibited (if you damage the root system on this day, the risk of the complete death of your green friend and his neighbors will increase), but processing the leaves and stems will lead to increased fertility and vitality.

But on the 20th lunar day, the most successful idea will be to collect root crops. They will have a longer shelf life (sometimes the indicators exceed the standard twice) and pleasant taste. In addition, on the 20th lunar day in root crops, the concentration of minerals and useful elements, vitamins, which the human body needs, increases.

Gardening is also recommended: the fruit trees are ready to develop further. Saplings of any age will tolerate transplanting or grafting well, and harvesting leaf litter will also not be superfluous. Only watering is unfavorable on this day, even if it is necessary according to the water application schedule, wait at least a day. It can injure the root system.

It is worth noting that on the waning moon, plants just slow down growth and activity. That is why from 3 to 8 March it is recommended to carry out manipulations with the aboveground part of the plants, while not touching the roots.

The period is favorable for planting root and bulbous plants, since all their juices are collected in the root part. By planting root plants for the waning moon, you help them gain more strength and become much tastier and juicier.

What not to do

As a rule, on a waning moon, the roots become too vulnerable and prone to various diseases. Therefore, at this time, it is recommended to postpone all work that is related to the ground. These include digging a site, loosening or watering plants.

In the future, the taste of the crop also suffers, and the aroma, if there is, is very weak.

Because of all of the above, it is highly undesirable to plant or transplant plants in this lunar phase.
