21 days is considered universal: you can both harvest and engage in pruning, grafting new shoots to adult plants, cultivating the soil and applying useful dressings to the soil.

Organics will also show good results, because now the roots of the plant are especially susceptible to substances that are quickly absorbed.

Now you can start harvesting roots (the day will be especially productive if you grow ginger), collecting fruits that grow in the soil, for example, radishes, turnips, beets, carrots, potatoes and the like. You can also start collecting medicinal plants (both those that you grow yourself, and forest or wild), which are full of strength and energy on 21 lunar days.

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.

When watering plants on a waning moon, you need to be very careful, as you run the risk of damaging the roots. Instead, focus on pruning trees or removing shoots. You can also do pest control and weed management for great results.

Work in the garden

If you are gardening, you can devote time to harvesting foliage and uprooting stumps or old trees. Harvesting is recommended only for aboveground plants.

The harvested fruits will be well stored, therefore, for the waning moon, you can make various preparations, as well as drying herbs or fruits.

Twins

Gemini is a sign of Air. Its main qualities are dryness and low yield. Therefore, this period is not suitable for sowing seeds or planting seedlings. Growing up, such plants develop the root system as much as possible, but to the detriment of all other parts. As a result, they have a very weak stem that needs support. 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.
