In December, it is necessary to prepare the garden for the onset of cold weather, especially if this was not done in the fall. Tree trunks, bushes, and beds with perennials are insulated with spruce branches or spunbond, shields are installed to help accumulate snow, and flower beds are mulched with peat and spruce branches.

When walking around the garden, do not forget to shake snow from the branches and check trees and shrubs for wintering pests. Many gardeners advise communicating with trees and shrubs, thanking them for the gift of the harvest, and negotiating the future.

If the harvest is stored in the country, you need to find a free day in December and check the supplies. Boxes with lime or salt, installed in order to reduce air humidity, are replaced with fresh ones at least once during the winter. From barrels with sauerkraut and pickled cucumbers you need to remove the mold, wash the oppression with water.

To attract beneficial birds, feeders are installed on the site, which should preferably be filled with fresh food at least once a week. Then next spring There will be much less pests in the garden.

Since summer residents have nothing to do in the garden in December, great solution will organize a vegetable garden on the windowsill. In the apartment you can not only get greens from forcing, but also harvest tomatoes, peppers and some other vegetables.

If you are going to receive by February 23 or March 8 blooming hyacinths, tulips or daffodils, we advise you to put their bulbs for forcing.

In December, you need to analyze the work done and harvested, decide on plans for the next season, purchase seeds, read literature about modern approaches to cultivation different cultures, get acquainted with the lunar calendar of the work of a gardener, gardener and florist for the next year.

People always have a special meaning in movement heavenly bodies. This is exactly how astrology appeared, and after it modern astronomy. Although most of us do not consider astrology to be a science, the influence of the phases of the moon on human well-being, the ebb and flow of tides, as well as the development and growth of plants is a fact proven by science. The lunar sowing calendar is used by many gardeners in different regions, noting that this knowledge turns out to be really useful for them.

We continue the series of articles “Lunar sowing calendar 2016”, which will help gardeners and gardeners determine the most favorable periods for carrying out certain works, depending on the phases of the Moon and the position of the zodiac signs. Of course, all the advice given below is of a recommendatory and conditional nature, however, in the spring, when gardeners and gardeners lead active work in their areas, can be very useful.

December 2016

Table: Moon in zodiac signs, phases of the Moon and types of work

December - New Year's Eve.

The sun shines in December, but does not warm... According to statistics, in December in general clear weather very rare.
December is the final month of the year, and work in the garden needs to be completed to prepare for winter, which could not be done in November, for example, because the snow has not yet fallen. Based on the weather in December, it used to be possible to make forecasts for the coming year, in our time this does not always work, but I think it’s still worth recalling folk signs: If December is dry, spring and summer will be dry, and if it’s cold, snowy, with frost and winds - there will be a harvest.

Vegetable garden on the windowsill: Growing in room conditions onions and garlic brings triple benefits:
1. You get “your” greens on the table.
2. Onions and garlic, along with such decorative indoor plants as geranium, begonia, thuja, juniper, lemon, chlorophytum, release phytoncides that kill viruses and microbes, i.e. you reduce the risk of infectious diseases.
3. Indoor plantings moisturize dry central heating air.

Folk signs about the weather in December:
December, snowy and cold, promises a fruitful harvest.
Once every ten years, December is warm and even removes the snow from the ground.
In December, the sun is for summer, winter is for frost.

Based on one interesting folk sign we are compiling, one of the main tasks of which is to help plan gardening work

Florist lunar calendar 2016 - indoor plants and flowers. Care indoor flowers in winter.

December 2016

The table of the lunar calendar given on this page is a thematic selection from the universal , made for the convenience of those who grow ornamental plants and flowers, both indoors and in a flower garden in the country.

December - New Year's Eve.

The sun shines in December, but does not warm... According to statistics, clear weather is a rarity this month. In addition to the fact that indoor plants are exposed to dry air in rooms with central heating, many of them also lack light. Plants will better tolerate being in dry air if they are given occasional light shower. This type of shower also helps in pest control. Light-loving plants need additional lighting in December; even reflective screens are no longer as effective - the daylight hours are too short...

Helpful advice. If you have problems with the placement of lamps for illuminating indoor plants, perhaps Paulmann reflective phytolamps will help solve the situation - they do not cause overheating even of closely spaced plant leaves and are screwed into a regular socket. Their difference from conventional lamps lies in a special layer of blue color applied to the glass of the lamp (very similar to our “blue lamp”, but the layer applied to the bulb is opaque).

ATTENTION! Our gardener's lunar calendar is kept by Moscow time. (The calendar can be used throughout Russia, taking into account the difference between Moscow and local time *)
