April picks up the water and opens the flowers.
April is the month in which we can enjoy the first flowers. Crocuses and daffodils are the main harbingers of spring warmth. In April, previously planted annual flowers are plucked a second time and fed. After the snow melts, you need to remove the foliage from the area that you did not have time to remove in the fall, after the ground can already be cultivated in the clubs and flower beds, in order to prepare the sowing of flowers with a short growing season.
About the transplant plants: For replanting most indoor plants, the most favorable periods are March and April - before their intensive growth begins and after the end of the growth season, August - September.
In April 2017, the lunar month is almost a week behind the calendar month, so the most favorable days for sowing flower seedlings ( flower crops) fall in the second ten days of the month (on the waxing Moon).
ATTENTION! by Moscow time

February snow smells like spring.
In February, it's time to sow seeds of flower annuals, such as petunias, for seedlings. different varieties. The sooner you sow them, the sooner they will bloom. The busy time is coming for purchasing seeds, preparing the soil for seedlings and containers for planting them. At the same time, you still need to carefully monitor and care for indoor plants that are in winter depression (possibly hibernation), monitor the soil moisture (waterlogging at this time is no less dangerous than drying out).
About watering plants. In winter, it is necessary to carry out moderate, infrequent watering of indoor plants and flowers, avoiding waterlogging of the soil substrate, since with low plant activity, this will lead to stagnation of water in the lower part of the planting container and rotting of the roots. It is worth resorting more often to the so-called “dry watering” - loosening the surface crust of the soil, which destroys the capillaries that, on the one hand, draw moisture from the soil, and on the other, prevent air from penetrating there.
ATTENTION! Our moon calendar gardener is underway by Moscow time. (The calendar can be used throughout Russia, taking into account the difference between Moscow and local time *)

Even in ancient times, people began to notice that the Moon magically influences the processes occurring on Earth. This celestial body is located at a small distance from our planet, by cosmic standards, and therefore is capable of making its own adjustments to the course of life of all living organisms. Throughout the history of its existence, man has tried to unravel the secrets of this heavenly body.
Since ancient times, people have believed that the Moon represents darkness, and the Sun. A bunch of mystical events happens on days full moon. However, there were scientists who were able to shed light on the mystery of the Moon. The thing is that the planet exerts incredible gravity on Earth. In turn, gravity affects all biological rhythms of living beings. But the Moon has a special influence on plants.
Gardeners and flower growers have even compiled a special calendar, which outlines favorable and unfavorable days for sowing, caring for and harvesting. WITH florist lunar calendar 2017 year you can find in this article.
Introduction
People who are interested in plant growing have noticed that the Moon, being in different places, affects green spaces in different ways. On some days their growth slows down, on others, on the contrary, it accelerates. From time immemorial, humanity spent most of its life in vegetable gardens and orchards, which is why the lunar calendar was invented, which helped to understand all the intricacies of the Moon’s influence on plants and to know when to perform certain actions with them.
The florist's lunar calendar is not just a description of lunar cycles. This is a very important document that even shows in which zodiac sign the celestial body is located, because these criteria are also extremely important during planting and harvesting work.
Astrologers say that all signs can be divided into three groups:
- Promoting fertility - Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces. If you start planting flowers at a time when the Moon is under their influence, then all the crops will sprout and begin to delight the eye with their splendor and health.
- Neutral. This category includes Sagittarius, Libra, Taurus and Capricorn. If night celestial body will be under their influence, then the crops may not give the expected result, but may, on the contrary, germinate with a vengeance.
- Negative. Such zodiac signs as Gemini, Leo, Aries, Virgo, Aquarius contribute Negative influence for crops, and it is extremely undesirable to plant plants at this time.
According to the lunar calendar, planting flowers and other plants should be done during periods of the waxing moon. The result of this action will be excellent and abundant. But at a time when the Moon is decreasing, it is better to refrain from planting work.
Florist calendar
Already now you can familiarize yourself with the gardener’s lunar calendar, according to which you can plan the planting of flowers and other plants. Astrologers are sure that during the growth of the Moon, green plants grow better due to the rapidly rising sap, which first goes along the stem, enters the leaves and reaches the buds.
During the days of the waning moon, all nutrients remain in the roots, and only some of them enter the flower. That is why it is best to land during the period when the Earth’s satellite is in the growth phase.
In addition, there is an opinion that you should not plant flowers during the full moon. Just like on the days of decline, the sap practically stops moving along the stem and remains in the roots. Your seedlings simply will not germinate. During such a period, it is best to plant plants where the roots need to flourish.
On days of solar and lunar eclipses, astrologers do not recommend working in the garden. It is believed that during such a period nature freezes in anticipation of something extraordinary. All these days are also indicated in the gardener’s lunar calendar.
Let's take a look at the gardener's month by month. With it, you will know exactly when to move a particular flower to the garden, and also when to refrain from doing so.
January calendar
With the arrival of winter, plant growth slows down significantly. At this time, the plantings require minimal care, so gardeners practically do not waste time in the garden. All that is required is timely watering, fertilizing and treatment against bugs.
It is worth noting that the most successful seedlings will be climbing plants, if you plant them on the 2nd, 3rd and 11th. In addition, during this period you can plant tuberous and bulbous plants.
February calendar
In the last month of winter, the days are longer, so many gardeners begin planting plants and dividing roots. It is worth noting that in February 2017 there will be a lunar and solar eclipse. Follow the calendar carefully so as not to plant seeds in vain.
Please note that it is better to plant flower seeds from February 26 to 29, climbing seeds from 26 to 28, and bulbous seeds from 8 to 12.
March calendar
Already with the arrival of March, the life of flower growers becomes busy. You need to sow seeds for seedlings. IN special days You can plant, fertilize and trim plants.
Flower seeds are sown between March 28 and March 31. Rooting of cuttings should begin from the 8th to the 11th.
April calendar
April is the most important month for spring gardening. At noon, the sun is already warming up well, so the annual flowers are transferred to the ground. This month should also include planting seeds, replanting climbing plants, rooting cuttings and other work.
Calendar for May
May is a busy month for a gardener. A large amount of work needs to be done in thirty days. The main task is dividing perennial bushes and planting annual seeds in the ground. Flowers such as asters, marigolds, daisies and cornflowers are planted in May.
We must not forget that in the early days it is advisable to plant seeds of flowering plants, but at the end of May it is better to postpone planting climbing plants. It is best to root cuttings at the end of the month.
Horoscope for June
Any gardener, whether professional or amateur, knows that summer brings with it the active phase of plant growth, so you won’t be bored. It is important to know on what day a particular plant should be planted so that it takes root and produces excellent seedlings.
Tip: Try to plant flowers at the same time. This way they will grow well, bloom well and stay in the garden until autumn.
Horoscope for July
This month is notable for the fact that flower growers take cuttings of phlox and roses. In addition, July is the ideal time for digging up bulbous flowers, dividing irises and other identical flowers.
Note that from July 1 to July 10 it is best to sow seeds of flowering plants, but from July 23 to July 31 to plant climbing plants.
Horoscope for August
Summer is coming to an end, but for summer residents this is the “hottest” time. Just in July it is necessary to plant tubers perennial plants, so that they give color in next year. In addition to these flowers, gardeners are beginning to plant plants that are easy to care for, but at the same time beautiful flowers: chamomile, mallow, cloves. To understand when you can plant green plants, and when it’s better to hold off.
From 3 to 7 you should start replanting, but from 21 to 31 you can sow flower seeds.
Horoscope for September
Many gardeners have already noticed a lot of benefits of planting flowers in autumn period. Plants become more hardened, react less to cold and take root better in the flowerbed. Already with the arrival of spring, these plants bloom faster and are pleasing to the eye.
Horoscope for October
In mid-autumn, the garden is empty for about an hour, leaves begin to fall from the trees, and the flowers slowly “fall asleep.” In October, tubers of perennial plants are most often dug up and the last bulbs that were not planted in August and September are planted.
From October 19 to 20, you should plant seeds, and from October 1 to 4, plant climbing plants. It is advisable to allocate the end of October for plant replanting.
Horoscope for November
Due to the fact that November is a changeable month, gardeners rush to finish all their work as quickly as possible in order to rest peacefully for several months of winter. So, in November it is customary to plant asters, marigolds, calendula, mignonette and others in the ground.
Using the gardener's calendar, you can determine a favorable day for planting and, with a clear conscience, expect beautiful shoots in the first days of spring.
Horoscope for December
As a rule, in winter flowers are planted on the balcony. For example, seedlings in pots. Even though it is the winter month, indoor plants also need care, repotting and pruning.
Watering flowers according to the lunar calendar
The most important process for flowers is watering. The beauty and growth of the plant depends on the water entering the soil. It is not surprising that this process also depends on the Moon. On those days that are considered favorable, the water is charged with positive energy and, in turn, transfers it to the plant. Watering on unfavorable days, of course, will not harm green spaces, but it will not bring much benefit either.
Watering flowers is best done at a time when the Moon is under the influence of Cancer, Pisces and Scorpio. Follow this rule, water your flowers once a week, and they will soon delight you with their health and lush blooms.
On days when the Moon is in the constellations Sagittarius, Leo and Aries, you should refrain from watering flower plants. Astrologers claim that this period is suitable for winter watering, when the Sun is not so active and cannot burn flower foliage with its rays.
If you have indoor plants, then you need to not only water them, but also spray them. Especially if the weather is hot outside. Follow the lunar watering calendar and your indoor green “friends” will be with you for a long time. As for spraying, they also need to be carried out based on the data of the lunar calendar.

The time for the florist's lunar calendar is Moscow.
The beginning lunar days is the time of moonrise.
Attention: During the winter months, most indoor plants experience a period of dormancy or a significant slowdown in growth. Minimal care is watering, pest control and re-handling if necessary: if the plant was flooded, pests appeared. Loosening the soil and sanitary pruning are also carried out as necessary: if the soil in the pot does not dry out for a long time, the branches have dried out from a draft, etc. Other care methods: fertilizing, grafting, formative and rejuvenating pruning, replanting, dividing, etc. It’s worth postponing until the end of March until truly bright days arrive. The exception is plants that are illuminated with lamps and continue to grow, bloom or bear fruit.

Note: you should not take the gardener’s lunar calendar literally as a guide to action. If in October or January you see recommendations that “you can sow and plant some indoor plants” or “water and feed with organic fertilizers,” then know that only experienced gardeners can follow them and this only applies to plants in certain conditions. For example, fruit-bearing indoor trees can be fed monthly, even in winter. Plants that are in warm conditions of long daylight hours in autumn and winter (with additional lighting by lamps) can also be fed and even replanted. Experienced flower growers and in winter they can successfully take cuttings and re-root plants, as well as sow seeds or carry out artificial pollination. In the general rules of plant growing, with the onset of autumn, cooling, reduction of daylight hours and lighting intensity, i.e. When plants enter a stage of dormancy or slowdown in development, fertilizing, replanting, grafting, pruning and other procedures are strongly not recommended.
The moon affects not only people, but also plants. In order for your home garden pleased with beautiful and healthy flowers, use the recommendations of the lunar calendar for indoor plants.
April - time active growth and flowering of many plants. It is during this period that they require careful care. Calendar recommendations will help determine the days when your intervention is necessary and the time when the plants are best left alone. Favorite flowers also need care and attention, so please yourself and purchase new beautiful containers for replanting, as well as add new pets to your home garden.

In almost every home there are several pots of indoor flowers on the windowsill. Someone really loves such plants, willingly cares for them and is interested in new specimens. For some, it doesn’t matter what kind of flowers are on the window, as long as they look attractive and don’t require special attention. But in any case, even the most unpretentious crops require minimal care, including periodic replanting. And it is best to perform it in accordance with the phase of the moon. And today we will talk about when you can replant indoor flowers in November 2017 according to the lunar calendar...
Since ancient times, people began to pay attention to the fact that the lunar cycle affects the growth processes of living cells. And over time, it was proven in practice that the development of plants really depends largely on the phase of the Moon, as well as on the location of our satellite in a certain zodiac sign.
When is it worth replanting flowers according to the lunar calendar??
So, when the moon wanes, life force of plants tends to the roots, and when it grows, accordingly, to the stems, flowers and fruits (to the aerial parts). Therefore, to prevent the root system from being injured during transplantation, readers of Popular About Health need to carry out such work during the period of the waxing Moon. At the same time, at the new moon stage, it is not recommended to work with plants at all, since the crops will not receive enough vital energy for growth and development. The full moon is also not considered a favorable time for replanting; during this period, flower growers advise fighting pests and loosening the soil around the plants.
How to determine the phase of the moon?
When the night sky is clear and the Moon is not visible at all, this is the New Moon period. Afterwards, a narrow sickle appears in the sky; if you mentally “draw” a stick to it, you will get the letter “P” - this is the growing Moon. It gradually begins to increase and grows to a full disk - this, accordingly, is the Full Moon. Then the disk begins to shrink, becoming a thinner and thinner sickle every day, it is bent in the other direction and looks like the letter “C” - this is the period of the waning moon. It gets smaller and smaller until it disappears. And everything repeats again, a new lunar cycle begins.
The best time to replant indoor plants depending on the zodiac
The development of indoor plants also largely depends on what sign the Moon was in at the time of transplantation. It is best to carry out such work when our satellite is in the sign of Taurus, Virgo, Libra, Capricorn and Pisces.
The optimal time to replant is November 2017
November 2017 begins with the waxing Moon, which is in the sign of Aries. This is not a favorable period for transplantation. The full moon follows, and then the moon begins to wane.
Already from the nineteenth of November, the Moon begins to grow again, but the optimal time for transplanting indoor crops comes on the twenty-first of November, when it is in the house of Capricorn. This period will last until the twenty-third of November inclusive, after which the Moon will enter the sign of Aquarius and the transplantation work will have to be postponed until later.
The next favorable period for transplantation begins on November twenty-sixth (Sunday), the waxing Moon will be in the sign of Pisces and will remain there until November twenty-ninth inclusive. There will be no more optimal time for working with indoor flowers this month.
So, it is best to replant plants according to the lunar calendar in November 2017. November 21 – 23 and November 26 – 28.
Experienced indoor plant lovers recommend replanting such crops in the spring, adhering to the lunar calendar. But in some cases there is an urgent need to transfer the plant to a new pot in the fall or even winter. In such a situation, it is important to provide the flower with comfort and tranquility after transplantation, provide it with sufficient lighting, a suitable watering schedule and optimal air humidity in the room.

A prosperous time is often determined by the location of the Moon. How does the Moon affect indoor flowers? What is it good to know to manage your calendar?
The sap and energy of plants, like the waters of the world's oceans, are responsive to the location of the earth's satellite. They rush towards the growing moon along the stems from bottom to top. From the roots to the leaves on the top of the head. At full moon saturation occurs nutrients aboveground part. On the waning Moon, a reverse movement occurs towards the roots. During the new moon, everything is concentrated in the underground part.

How to properly replant indoor flowers - technology and tips
All indoor plants are divided into families. Are different appearance, characteristics, needs. This is taken into account when transplanting.
Green spaces grow in artificially created conditions and require regular saturation with nutrients. Changing the soil, cultivating the root system, and increasing capacity contribute to this.
Transplanted indoor plantings regularly. Young, fast growing plants every year. Adult specimens according to classification. For example:
- violet - annually;
- ficus - once every six years;
- azalea - in three years.
Land for planting is one of the important elements. The best option- blank. They take fertile layers of turf and mix them with peat, leaf, manure, and pine humus. Add sand in a ratio of 1/10.
Such soil can be light - the bulk is humus, or heavy, with a predominance of clay.
Plants with thin or weak root systems are transplanted into light soils. Fast-growing plants are neutral (the amount of turf and humus is equal). Heavy soils Designed for specimens with powerful, thick roots.
Take into account the individual needs of green pets. Orchids are planted in acidic soils, consisting of peat, moss, roots.
The next step is choosing a container. Choose:
- by form;
- material;
- sizes.
The best shape is considered to be a cut-off cone. Pots are often selected when the top diameter is equal to the height. The holes for water drainage are of normal size.
When replacing the container with a larger pot, the difference in diameter is no more than two cm.
The nuances are related to the view indoor flower. Orchids require a tall, narrow container, preferably transparent. A low, wide pot is suitable for azaleas.
Expanded clay, pebbles, and clay shards are used as drainage. Cover the drainage with a small layer of moss to avoid clogging.
The transplant technology is as follows:
- Take out a plant prepared for transplanting. It is carefully knocked out using a wooden blade. It is undesirable to pull the stems and branches, which can seriously harm them. Use the same blade to shake off excess soil. The original lump should shrink by a quarter of its size. Small felt roots are trimmed.
- The drainage is sprinkled with prepared soil. Holding it, lower the plant in the middle of the container. Fill the gap with soil, compacting it with a wooden spatula.
- They suggest not deepening the root collar, leaving it at the same level as before. This promotes better adaptation and eliminates rotting.
- Check the compaction of the soil by lifting the plant by the trunk. If it rises with a pot, good.
- After transplanting, water. Place it in a place protected from direct rays.
When replanting plants due to damage to the earthen coma, diseased roots are cut off. The cut area is treated with fine coal. The pot is taken with a smaller diameter. A pinch of coal is added to the ground.
If pests or diseases are detected, a complete transplant is carried out. The roots are freed from the soil and washed. Everything infected and diseased is cut off and treated.
Rarely replanted plants need to renew the top layer of soil. It is removed by 2-4 cm and freshly filled.
Replanting indoor flowers in autumn (September, October)
Autumn is an unfavorable time for transplantation work. Plant biorhythms slow down and daylight hours are shortened. The humidity in the room decreases and the temperature fluctuates.
Having eliminated these factors, the transplant is carried out using conventional technology.
- Increase daylight hours by lighting. Turn it on required time, at the same hour.
- Air humidity is increased by spraying plants with lukewarm water. Use trays with wet moss. Or install it near a container of water.
- Eliminate drafts and maintain constant air temperature.
Indoor plants are usually replanted in the autumn by experienced gardeners.
For regular care and attention, green pets will delight you with a beautiful view, lush flowering, and bright fruits.

Hilling, that is, the process of rolling moist, finely structured soil onto the stems, accompanied by loosening, allows you to achieve many important things at once: protecting the stem from temperature changes, stimulating growth, implementing drainage, fighting weeds, pests, and so on. It is necessary to hill up and leeks, beans, and peas, but especially needs hilling potato.
