Spring sowing calendar. Sowing and planting vegetable and berry crops for seedlings

The new planting season requires pre-planned preparation, because each vegetable crop, or like a certain soil temperature, proper watering, pruning, picking and top dressing. Only in this case, the gardener and gardener can count on good harvest in the new agricultural year. Any experienced owner personal plot knows that the main assistant in planning earthworks is crops compiled by specialists on the basis of astronomical observations and mathematical calculations. Let's see what such a sowing calendar is like, and also find out what recommendations it gives for 2017.

What is the gardener's calendar for 2017?

The sowing calendar is a certain set of knowledge and observations of the position of the moon and the daily movement of our satellite. These factors have a noticeable positive or negative effect on all earthly processes, including planting plants in the ground, sowing seeds, pruning and feeding trees or planting flowers. Such a serious impact of the Moon is explained simply - it is the closest celestial body to the Earth.

Each approach of the Moon or its removal from our planet is accompanied by ebbs and flows, as well as an increase or decrease in level. ground water. Plants, like many other living organisms, consist mainly of water, and their vital juices react sharply to the change of lunar phases, so that at certain periods our satellite can actively stimulate the growth of crops, influence the intensity of the formation of their terrestrial or underground parts, and in others - to awaken diseases or weaken plants.

The value of the sowing calendar lies in the fact that it clarifies the impact of each phase of the moon on the growth, health and formation of plants, soil conditions and environment. In addition, the calendar indicates the impact on gardening and garden work of each of the signs of the zodiac circle, which can stimulate or inhibit the growth of crops and the formation of fruits, so that by working according to the recommendations below, you can easily get a good harvest, saving time and resources.

What does the 2017 sowing calendar take into account?

The lunar calendar contains information:

  • about the lunar phases of each of the months of the year that affect earthly processes - from the growth and formation of plants to the operation of mechanisms. Such knowledge helps gardeners to correctly choose the days suitable for planting certain plants, sowing seeds, irrigating, fertilizing or harvesting;
  • about the days of the lunar calendar, which differs from the usual solar rhythm - the frequency of the satellite's revolution differs from the speed of the Earth's rotation, which leads to a certain effect of the Moon on all living things;
  • about days of the week that may also encourage or discourage planting, watering, feeding, pruning or harvesting;
  • about the signs of the zodiac circle, which can have a beneficial or detrimental effect on the life of plants.

Let's talk about these points in more detail.

The influence of the waxing and waning moon

It has long been known that during the periods it is necessary to abandon any planting work. On the day when our satellite is "born" once again, it draws on itself the energy and life reserves of living organisms, so that the landings will turn out to be weak and unviable. It must also be remembered that during new moon plants slow down in growth and development, concentrating all the forces released to them on the formation of roots.


The growing moon will have a beneficial effect on the growth and development of plants

As the moon grows, the juices of the plants begin to rush upward - from the root system to the leaves, fruits and domes. Development and growth become active, therefore, for above-ground plants that by their nature are drawn to the sun (cereals, flowers, cucumbers, tomatoes, dill, various trees), you need to choose just such a day. As you get closer full moon stem growth becomes less active, but if you have slightly damaged the root of the plant by weeding the plantings, this will not bring much harm.

For planting and growing crops that form fruits underground (for example, for root parsley, potatoes, beets, carrots, Jerusalem artichoke), the period when the satellite is waning is suitable. On such days, it helps to form root crops. At the same time, the most favorable period for pruning trees and shrubs begins.

On days when the moon is absent from the sky or shines on it in full force, it is better not to carry out active work on weeding, loosening and pruning, since all living things become especially vulnerable to damage.

Influence of the zodiac constellations

Even the ancient Greeks knew that the constellations have different effects on the processes of life and rooting of plants, so they classified them into those that provide fertility, and those that are barren or signs with average fertility.

  • Planting or transplanting plants at a time when constellations rule in the sky, or, is favorable. At this time the most beneficial effect will water the beds and carry out top dressing. The only exception for watering is the sign of Pisces - too much watering can cause the roots to rot. Do not carry out picking and pruning in this sign, so as not to slow down the formation of trunks, shoots and branches. However, pumpkin, eggplant, horseradish, tomatoes and cucumbers planted during the waxing moon will bring more than an enviable harvest. The influence of Cancer is especially well manifested on the growing moon - such days are great for planting plants that love moisture - cucumbers, tomatoes, zucchini, Bulgarian and spicy pepper, kohlrabi, broccoli, cauliflower and white cabbage will thank you. Cancer also contributes to the planting of gooseberries, black and red currants, yoshta and raspberries. When Cancer is accompanied by a waning moon, you can safely sow carrots, beets or plant potato tubers, but remember that the harvest will be plentiful, but not suitable for long storage so it won't go to seed. Scorpio favors the planting of garlic, bulbous flowers and seedlings, especially during periods when the moon is waning. By the way, this will provide you not only with greater yields, but also with excellent preservation of seed material;
  • It is possible to land at the time when our satellite is in position at , or , but these are signs of average fertility - they will not provide you with an outstanding harvest. The exception is Libra, which provides excellent growth and rooting of peas, beans, pumpkins, asparagus, as well as decorative ivy and others climbing plants. Also, this sign promotes moderate watering or fertilization. The sign of Taurus also stands apart, on the days of its supremacy, when the moon is waning, it is recommended to plant root crops, and on the days of the growth of the moon, sow parsley, dill, arugula, cabbage, or plant beans and peas. In the days of Capricorn, you can dive seedlings and plant perennial plants, trees and bushes for the winter;
  • You should not plant crops when signs predominate, or - they were classified by the Greeks as barren. However, during the period of influence of Leo and Aquarius, weeding and destruction of harmful insects should be carried out, and on the days of the influence of the Virgin, care activities should be carried out - weeding, hilling, loosening or spraying plants. On the moon growing in Virgo, you can plant bushes of strawberries or strawberries and perennial plants.

Astrologers claim that the energy of the etheric bodies controls the life potential, the ability to develop and grow all life on Earth.

On the New Moon, the energy of plant growth is concentrated in the root system and in the lower part of the trunks, sap flow slows down. At this time, sowing and transplanting plants is unfavorable.

After all, this calendar has been compiled for both window sills and greenhouses, where the seasons are of secondary importance, as well as for the southern regions and CIS countries, where spring does not begin in May, as in Russia, but in March - April, writes astrologer Tatyana Borshch.

During the New Moon pruning is favorable and transplanting is unfavorable. The sowing of seeds is also unfavorable, since the ethereal energy of the seed is too small and not tuned for growth.

On the days of the full moon, on the contrary, everything comes to life - energy rushes up and out from the roots, filling the shoots and fruits. This is an auspicious time for sowing and transplanting (as the energy is in the foliage and top of the plant, not in the roots).

Fruits harvested on the Full Moon and growing over surface of the earth, will have the largest set of useful qualities.

Root crops are best harvested on the days of the New Moon, since it is on these days that all the strength of plants is collected in the roots.

Seeds are also desirable to collect on the days of the New Moon, because maximum level The energy “packed” in them is observed precisely on these days. Such seeds will retain their strength until spring, and once in the ground, they will give friendly and healthy seedlings.

Astrologers have divided the signs of the zodiac according to their fertility.

The days when the Moon is in the sign of Taurus, Cancer, Scorpio are considered very fertile., and everything planted these days will not wither, but will give a rich harvest.

The average yield signs are Capricorn, Virgo, Pisces, Gemini, Libra, Sagittarius.

And the signs of Aquarius, Leo and Aries are considered barren.

On the days of the New Moon one should neither plant nor sow. Also, do not work with sharp tools: a pickaxe, a hoe, a knife, an ax, a shovel. These days are good only for weeding and killing weeds.

Potato should be planted between the Full Moon and the New Moon. Potatoes for food should be planted a few days after the New Moon, and potatoes intended for seeds a few days before the Full Moon.

For strawberries and strawberries the best landing time is July, August during the growing moon.

Vegetables, which grow for a long time, it is better to clean up on those days when the Moon is in the last quarter - then they will stay in good condition for a long time, they will last a long time.

grain harvest should be removed before the Full Moon.

Bush beans removed when she begins to go to bed, but the Moon must be in the sign of Leo.

Trees should be cut only during the growing moon. Trees are planted for the Full Moon and pruned for the New Moon. If for some reason you are replanting old trees, they need to be dug up, moved to a new location, and replanted only by the Full Moon. All withered branches of fruit and fruit trees remove only by the Full Moon.

grape branches they are cut just before the New Moon, otherwise they will “bleed” for a long time and a lot.

Large houseplants, growing in vats and tubs, transplanted into pots just before the Full Moon.

Tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbages and other plants with aboveground fruits you need to sow and plant with the growing moon.

All root crops (radishes, beets, turnips, potatoes and others)- with the waning moon. This rule is also true when sowing seeds in greenhouses.

Between New Moon and Full Moon plant those plants that develop more, the aerial part grows - trees and shrubs, flowers and vegetables.

Between Full Moon and New Moon root crops are planted: potatoes, turnips, carrots, beets, swedes, radishes, black radishes, asparagus, winter crops. Sap flow at this time is directed down to the roots. .

Plants that form fruits in the aerial part are recommended to sow in the phase of the growing moon, root crops - in its waning phase.

Have you ever woken up at the wrong time, “stand on the wrong foot”? All day you feel irritated and broken, and things go wrong. This is all because your usual rhythm was disturbed, you were awakened in the wrong phase of sleep. The same thing happens with plants.

Every culture, every seed has its own rhythm. “Awakened” at the wrong time, the plant withers, gets sick, and bears little fruit. Biodynamics teaches us to harmoniously fit into the natural rhythms of plants, and the clock by which we follow these rhythms is the movement of the moon and its phases.

Why use the lunar sowing calendar

Taking into account the peculiarities of the rhythms of the development of specific cultures, the phases of the Moon, the passage of the signs of the Zodiac by it and the distance between the Moon and the Earth changing every day, our sowing calendar has been compiled. It will help you get up to 30% more products than usual without additional labor and funds.

With the help of this calendar, you can find out not only the most favorable days for planting plants, but also determine at what time you should do certain garden activities.

The data for the winter months can be successfully used when growing a vegetable garden on the windowsill and working in the greenhouse. Good luck!

What you need to know about the phases of the moon

Schematically, the phases of the moon look like this:

  1. New Moon - from the most unfortunate time for horticultural work. Do not plant or transplant anything. This unfavorable period lasts three days, the day before the new moon, the new moon and the day after.
  2. Waxing Crescent- The moon grows by itself and pulls up the energy and juices of plants. This is the best time to work with plants whose fruits ripen above the ground (greens, herbs, fruits, vegetables, flowers). You can plant, transplant, graft and so on.
  3. Full moon- during this period it is also not recommended for planting and transplanting plants and it also lasts three days. You can do weeding, fertilizing, processing the garden from pests.
  4. Waning moon- juices and energy go down to the roots, so try to work with root crops, bulbs.

What does "first quarter" and "third quarter" mean in the lunar calendar

After the new moon, the moon begins to grow, its crescent appears in the sky and gradually increases. At some point in the lunar month, it turns out that exactly half of the lunar disk appears to us illuminated, and the other half is not visible. This phase of the synodic lunar month is called first quarter.

AT third quarter or last quarter, we again see exactly half of the moon, but this is already a waning, aging moon. It's like a mirror image of the first quarter.

Is it possible to visually determine what phase the Moon is in, whether it is waxing or waning?

Yes, you can. This is very easy to do.

Look at the Moon and mentally substitute a pencil to its "horns". If you get the correct letter "R", then the moon is growing, but if it turns out "P" on the contrary, something similar to the letter "U" means decreasing.

  • It is best to plant plants at dawn or before lunch.
  • With the growing moon, use mineral supplements.
  • When decreasing - organic.

Under what signs of the zodiac is it best to produce crops

  • Cancer, Taurus, Scorpio, Pisces,- fertile signs of the zodiac. Try to sow seeds and plant plants under these signs, then the seedlings will grow better and subsequently give a higher yield.
  • Virgo, Sagittarius, Libra, Capricorn- neutral signs. When the Moon is under these signs, you can both plant and sow, but the harvest is likely to be average.
  • Gemini, Aquarius, Leo, Aries- infertile signs. At this time, it is better to abandon sowing - planting and do other garden work. Weed control gives good results these days.

Try to plant fruit trees and shrubs during the waning moon. During this period, energy moves from the top of the plants to the roots, this has a beneficial effect on the survival rate of seedlings.

The influence of the moon on plant life

For many thousands of years, people have been watching the Moon, but despite such long observations, far from all the secrets of our satellite have been revealed. However, no one doubts that the night luminary has a strong influence on the Earth.

The most obvious and well-known example is the ebb and flow. According to some reports, even the solid shell of the Earth is stretched by 0.5 m towards the Moon. The magnetic field of our planet is also changing, and this already affects the intensity of biochemical processes in living organisms.

Consequently, all plants experience a wave-like effect, similar to the tides of the sea. This effect alternately either enhances or slows down the metabolism in plant tissues.

Centuries-old observations have allowed people to systematize their experience and create a lunar calendar that reflects the general rhythms of the planet. Based on this calendar, the Lunar calendar of gardeners and gardeners is also compiled.

For summer residents who do not have the opportunity to check the Lunar calendar every day, it is enough to remember the main rule: do not work with plants in new moon and in full moon.

The unfavorable period of the new moon lasts three days - the new moon, the day before and the day after the new moon.

The full moon has a lesser effect on plant life, so you can arrange only one day off - on the full moon.

And whatever the skeptics say, a well-chosen time for sowing seeds will have great importance for further plant growth and development. After all, not a single law, not a single theory, can exist for a long time if it is not confirmed by life experience and the laws of nature.

But on the other hand, one cannot overestimate the influence of the moon. This influence is not global, and even if you sow seeds under the most fertile sign of the Zodiac, without competent agricultural technology, without careful care, you should not hope for a rich harvest.
