What to plant in March for seedlings - vegetables, flowers
March is the first month of spring, and almost everything can be planted, with the exception of those crops that have a long growing season and that should have been sown earlier. But, even if you did not have time to do this at the end of February, the lunar sowing calendar for March 2018 will tell you when you can still plant this or that crop. 
So, in March, tomatoes (tomatoes) are planted as seedlings, Bell pepper, eggplants, onions, cucumbers, pumpkin, zucchini, squash, cauliflower, and potatoes are also put out for germination. From the third decade of March, leeks are planted on seedlings, petiole celery, white cabbage, kohlrabi, broccoli, basil, etc.

Lunar sowing calendar for March 2018 for gardeners and gardeners
Let's look at the planting calendar for March 2017, taking into account the climatic conditions of the north, the seeds of which crops make sense to sow for seedlings in the first calendar month of spring.
It is quite natural that the timing of planting seedlings depends on many factors: weather conditions, location of the garden, availability of greenhouses. If the greenhouses are heated, then the timing will be completely different than for unheated ones.
The start date for sowing seeds for seedlings depends on the timing of planting, since it seems possible to grow the harvest of most vegetable crops in the northern regions only through seedlings.
Practice shows that starting to plant seedlings in open ground or an unheated greenhouse is possible only after the threat of return frosts has passed. The Swedes call them quite poetically “Steel (iron) nights” (Järn nätter). They usually occur in the first ten days of June.
I tried to compile the lunar landing calendar for March 2017 myself, taking into account the following factors:
- desired age of seedlings at the time of planting
- Moon phase
- the sign through which the Moon passes when work begins.
At the beginning of March, it is worth sowing seeds only of large-fruited indeterminate varieties of tomatoes that require more long time for development. From the very first days of emergence, they should be provided with good lighting.
It should be noted that the duration of illumination of peppers is 8 hours, since they are plants short day. Eggplants and tomatoes should be illuminated for 12 hours. Typically, seedlings of these crops are grown together, so after eight hours of illumination, the peppers should be shaded.
The lamps are located at a distance of 15 - 20 cm above the seedlings, as they grow, the illumination must be gradually raised, maintaining a given distance.
Although March is significantly ahead of February in terms of the number of sunny days, March seedlings should be supplemented with light. Under such conditions, March seedlings are usually of better quality than February ones.
Let's "walk" through Lunar calendar March 2017. Let me remind you that the following zodiac signs are considered fertile: Taurus, Cancer, Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces.
The waxing moon phase occurs in the first ten days of the month. which favors the development of plants that bear fruit with their above-ground part.
- March 2, 3 - favorable days (the Moon will be in the sign of Taurus) for sowing celery, lettuce, cabbage, late-ripening seeds large-fruited varieties pepper
- March 6 (after 12 Moscow time), 7, 8 (before 19.45 Moscow time) - The Moon will pass through the Zodiac sign Cancer. These days are very suitable for planting seeds of strawberries, fennel, and peppers.
- On March 12, the Full Moon will occur, from now until March 28 (New Moon phase) the Moon will be waning.
- March 13 - 17, 20 - 22, 25 - 26 are favorable days, the Moon will successively pass through the fertile signs Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces. Then it will be possible to sow seeds of bulbous crops and root celery.
After passing the New Moon phase, favorable days will come again for planting crops that bear fruit above the surface of the earth.
- March 29, 30 - you can plant seeds of lettuce, peppers, tomatoes, eggplants as the growing Moon will pass through the fertile sign of Taurus.
Those gardeners who do not pay attention to the Lunar sowing calendar can be guided by the approximate dates for the start of sowing seeds:
- salads, strawberries, celery, large-fruited peppers - first ten days of the month
- early ripening peppers, tomatoes, eggplants - second, third ten days of the month.
In the northern regions, snow remains on the fields until the beginning of May. It is clear that there is no need to rush into sowing early ripening crops. From the text of the article it is clear that the planting calendar for March 2017 for the northern regions is not “stressful” - there are only so many types of vegetable crops that can be sown.
However, I am sure that most of us will have to solve the problem of placing all the seedlings under additional lighting. So I have already prepared bags with seeds of 8 varieties of peppers and 12 varieties of tomatoes. It's interesting to try them all! All that remains is to wish us all a successful start to the new sowing season.
