IN modern classification Lunar calendars There are three types of lunar calendar:
- a calendar that determines days favorable for working with plants according to the phases of the moon;
- a calendar that determines favorable days by zodiac signs [phases are taken into account but the signs dominate];
and the so-called lunar-bio-zodiacal (signs of “leaves”, “fruits”, etc.) which, in fact, is a slightly veiled calendar of lunar phases. The calendar, which is published on our website, makes an attempt to take into account the combined influence of factors of the phases of the Moon and zodiac signs on plants. Therefore, perhaps our lunar calendar turns out to be more strict: it marks both favorable and possible certain types work days - there are fewer favorable days than in other calendars, but let's hope that they are truly the most favorable!

The beginning of the new year is a busy time for most gardeners. There comes a time when it is necessary to prepare the seed and plant it on time. garden crops. Each person relies on his own experience, but sometimes knowledge is not enough, because it is impossible to select the correct date and even time for planting a particular garden crop at random. There are tips or specially designed sowing calendars for this.

With the onset of the new year, the 2016 sowing calendar is updated taking into account the phases of the moon and the length of daylight hours.

Gardener's sowing calendar

What should a novice summer resident, as well as an experienced amateur gardener, take into account? Here experts offer to reinforce their knowledge and many years of accumulated experience with information taken from specialized literature.

What to consider when sowing seeds:

1. Sowing garden crops, as well as herbs in seeds, must be done during the waxing moon. If you need to plant root crops, then try to complete the work 7 days before the moon update.
2. When the moon is full or new, it is better not to sow, since such a period is considered unfavorable. If this rule is not followed, then garden crops may develop poorly. It will take a long time to wait for a rich harvest.

Each country has developed its own sowing calendar for planting garden crops in 2016, taking into account the phases of the moon and time zone. To know and plan your work in advance, you need to start studying the information indicated in the calendar long before the arrival of spring. This way you can buy or slowly prepare the necessary seeds, calculate the ripening time of each crop, find out which days are favorable for planting and replanting plants, when it is necessary to apply useful fertilizers and when you can care for garden crops.

There are also unfavorable days when it is better not to show up in the garden. Well, if you have a great desire to tinker in the ground, then it is better not to plant or replant anything, you can only pull out the weeds, prepare the beds or do mulching.

Sowing calendar for the year or Table sowing calendar:

In June, many novice summer residents still do not know where to start work and constantly ask their neighbors if they are doing the right thing and what needs to be done next.

Here are some useful tips:

1. The first half of June - during this period, aphids and cabbage cutworms begin to actively reproduce. These pests negatively affect young seedlings and can even destroy all your efforts in a few hours. Therefore, you should not leave everything to chance; try to protect young seedlings from the negative manifestations of nature (rains, frosts), and also protect them from pests.
2. For lovers garden strawberries there too useful tips: large varieties You can “keep” strawberries in the garden for 3 years, then you need to replace the old plants and plant new ones. The habitat must also be chosen differently. Small varieties of garden strawberries can be left in the same place, the quality of the harvest does not change. If the plant is sick, then in order to prevent the spread of infection to neighboring healthy bushes, sick and all damaged berries must be removed. IN compost heap they are not placed in order to prevent the rapid spread of the disease. To get rid of gray rot, you need to plant onions or garlic next to the strawberry bushes.
3. As for planting vegetables: for tomatoes you need to choose a warm and well-lit place. The soil must be treated with nutrients (humus, manure, bird droppings). Potatoes are bad neighbors, so as not to infect tomato bushes with bacterial brown rot.

Traditionally, garlic is grown in winter. Here is a short lunar calendar for growing garlic in 2016.

Calendar lunar days for gardeners and gardeners this is a great opportunity to achieve high yields. Its compilation is based on the duration of the changing phases of the Moon. For summer residents and everyone who is interested in gardening, the 2016 calendar will become a kind of monthly diary of work carried out in the garden and beds. All days in the calendar are divided into favorable and unfavorable for sowing or planting seedlings. A unique sowing calendar will make it possible to carry out all activities when cultivating the land as required. Live nature. If field work will be maintained in accordance with the table for the care of vegetable and garden crops compiled according to the phases of the moon, then gardeners will be able to grow bountiful harvest. The satellite of planet Earth is the Moon, so everything fruit bushes, trees, flowers and vegetables obey the lunar cycles. This was noticed by our ancestors who were engaged in agriculture.

Depending on what sign the Moon is in when planting, the properties of the plants are determined. If the Moon is in an unfavorable phase during sowing, then even high-quality seeds can produce bad shoots. Therefore, it is recommended to sow seeds and plant seedlings at a time when the Moon opens favorable phase signs not only for tillage, but also for choosing the time of irrigation.

If the Moon sets in water signs(Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) water costs for irrigation are significantly reduced, since the plants absorb it well. When the Moon is in another sign, more water is required. It should also be remembered that:

• It is better to introduce complex organic compounds on the waning Moon;
• mineral fertilizers - on growing.

In both cases, the Moon must be in Taurus, Cancer, Pisces Scorpio or Capricorn.

When to sow seeds

The qualities of plants are determined by what sign the Moon was in when sowing. In order for the germination rate to be high and the seedlings to be strong, the seeds must be sown on the right days. In addition, in favorable signs, plants should be replanted, fed, cuttings, grafted, etc.

Seeds are considered planted from the day they are sown in the ground or soaked in water. These events become the start for the growth of agriculture, since moisture reaches the seed embryo and awakens the seed. Programming high yields begins from the moment of sowing. It is impossible to change anything later (during transplantation or cuttings). By transplanting seedlings on a favorable day, we only correct its condition. For example, if the seeds were planted in Cancer, then they should be planted in Capricorn or Virgo, then the roots and stem of the sprout will become a little stronger.

Agroastrology is very interesting thing. The main rule in it is this: when the sowing day corresponds to zodiac sign, but not quite suitable lunar phase, you should choose a zodiac sign, and carry out activities when the last day of the Moon’s stay in suitable sign. So, the sign of Sagittarius is suitable for sowing carrots, but the waning Moon is not suitable; sowing is carried out in this sign of the Zodiac, but on the last day of the Moon’s stay in Sagittarius. It is on this day that the lunar phase does not negatively affect carrot germination and yield.

When to water

Lunar calendar for seedlings for 2016 shows that when moistening plants, the phase of the Moon does not play any role. Here everything depends only on the zodiac sign. So, when watering sprouts at a time when the Moon is in Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces (water element), water consumption decreases, because during this period the plants absorb moisture well. In other zodiac signs, sprouts require much more water.

The Northern and Northwestern regions have peculiarities of irrigation. In these regions, the sprouts are irrigated while they are small and fragile. And when the plant grows and moisture collects on the leaves overnight, there is no need to water it. But after the rain, the soil in the beds must be loosened so that the moisture does not evaporate. On swampy soil, with frequent watering, all added organic matter is washed away. This should also be taken into account.

It is also possible to plant plants without constant watering. For example, tomato seedlings were planted in open ground with mineral fertilizers and organic matter placed in the holes. After sprouting tomatoes, water until water begins to remain on the surface of the ground. Then sprinkle the surface around the sprout with dry soil to prevent moisture evaporation. You don’t have to water the plant all summer, don’t fertilize it, and only loosen the soil after rain. Tomatoes planted in this way ripen very quickly.

When to feed

It is best to add organic matter to the soil on the waning Moon, which is in signs such as Taurus, Scorpio, as well as Capricorn, Pisces or Cancer. And here minerals It is best to apply in the same signs, but only on the waxing Moon.

For example, if you decide to fertilize with organic matter, you need to make an infusion of slurry or weeds on the waning moon immediately after the day of the full moon. After the fertilizer has fermented in a few days, you need to start fertilizing. We feed the plants 2-3 times during the season.

Garden work

All garden and garden work correctly carried out according to the lunar cycle.

1. Seeds should not be sown during the new moon, since during this period the energy of sprouting is reduced. When the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth, it is better to start pruning fruit trees.
2. During the waxing moon cycle, you need to plant green plants, that is, those whose edible part is above the surface of the earth. In addition, trees can be grafted onto the growing Moon and crowns can be formed.
3. The full moon is especially dangerous for crops and transplants. At full moon It is better to devote time to combating plant diseases, as well as protecting them from pests. During the full moon, you should also pay attention to the protection of garden and fruit crops.
4. As the Moon wanes, it is recommended to plant those plants that have edible “roots,” that is, the part that is underground. Feeding the root system, watering, replanting and planting crops will be of great benefit these days.
