Dear friends of @steemit must be clear that the mechanism of action of lunar energy, which stimulates or inhibits the growth of living tissues, so I present information about the influence of the lunar cycle for agriculture.
The moon revolves around the earth and occupies different positions in relation to the sun, during this movement four phases are fulfilled: new moon, crescent moon (first quarter), full moon, decreasing or waning moon (last quarter). Each phase in its own way affects the plants.
In the new moon, all the activity of the biofield is concentrated in the roots, that is, the plants at this moment is better not to touch, not to transplant, not to loosen the soil near the roots. Useful irrigation, weeding.
When the moon grows, the aerial part of the plants fills with energy. During this period, it is good to plant everything that extends upwards. You can do plant breeding, and tillage.
In the full moon, all the activity of the biofield is concentrated in the fruits, the leaves, in the aerial part. Be careful to weed by loosening the soil, thinning the seedlings.
When the moon fades (it is waning), the nutrients reach the roots. This is the optimal time to plant onions, potatoes and root crops.
Do you observe the difference in the transmission of energy? When the moon grows, the movement of energy goes to the top of the plant, when it decreases, the movement of energy from the top to the roots.
In the full moon, the top is saturated energetically, and at the roots the energy is minimal. And in the new moon, the roots and the lower parts of the plant are saturated to the maximum. Based on these factors, the following recommendations are proposed: plant trees that bear fruit on the surface of the earth (bioenergy is directed upwards) in the full moon and plants that bear fruit in the earth, plant on a decreasing moon (the bioenergy goes down).
The moon makes a complete revolution around the sun and during this time passes the 12 signs of the zodiac, each of which belongs to a certain element and has certain qualities:
- Signs of Earth - Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn.
- Water signs - Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces.
- Fire signs - Aries, Leo, Sagittarius.
- Air signs - Gemini, Libra, Aquarius.
When the moon is in Taurus, it affects what grows slowly, but it is stored until spring. These days it is recommended to plant potatoes, carrots, beets, turnips, onions, garlic, cabbage, legumes.
The moon in the sign of Virgo is a good influence on those plants that are grown for decorative purposes.
The moon in Capricorn promotes the planting and planting of vegetables and crops of roots, grains, bulbs and roots. Plants planted at this time, resistant to diseases, extreme temperatures. Bulbous less prone to division in the soil.
When the Moon is in Cancer, landings and transplants are very successful. At this time, you can plant cereals: wheat, oats, barley, buckwheat, as well as vegetables that are not intended for prolonged storage: tomatoes, radishes, melons and squash.
When the moon is in Scorpio it is good to plant tomatoes, radishes, leeks, melons and pumpkins. The days when the moon is in this sign should be used to plant medicinal plants, especially those that have thorns, thorns or leaves and phyllodes fruits. It is not recommended to dig up the tubers of flowers, vegetables and damage the parts of the plants that are on the ground to avoid infections.
The moon in Pisces is favorable for planting lettuce, parsley, radish and spinach. However, everything planted at this time deteriorates rapidly or acquires an unpleasant taste and smell.
When the moon is in Aries, you should plant and plant only what grows rapidly and is not subject to storage: lettuce, spinach, radishes, greens. At this time you can pulverize, weed, collect fruits, cultivate roots, cut flowers.
When the moon is in Leo it is favorable to plant trees and shrubs. At this time, it is possible to prune, eliminate excess buds, cut flowers, weeding, cultivation.
The moon in Sagittarius has a good influence on planting those plants that are supposed to grow upwards, as well as fast-growing plants and vegetables (onions, garlic, pepper, greens). The harvest of root vegetables, vegetables, fruits, gathering seeds, cutting flowers is favorable at this time.
The moon in the sign of Gemini promotes the planting or the transplanting of plants, excluding the sinuous ones: peas, peas, beans, lentils.
The moon in the sign of Libra is the right time to plant tuberous and leguminous crops: potatoes, turnips, beans, peas, etc .; It is good to plant crops, plant trees, shrubs, flowers, harvest seeds and tubers for storage.
The sign of Aquarius is unfavorable to plant and care for plants.
I hope this information can be useful for those who grow food and medicinal plants in their plots.
