In each month, this process will have its own characteristics, which means that the recommendations of the astrological calendar should be taken into account throughout the year.

This article focuses on the most suitable days for planting, planting and working on the beds in the first spring month, and what exactly is worth knowing about it - read on.

What is the main work to do the gardener and gardener in March

Most of the territory of the average climatic strip in March is starting to snow, but it is still difficult to plan any specific activities, as much depends on weather conditions, phases of growth and development of plants. However, the main activities in this period can be identified, and first of all they include:

  • treatment and pruning of trees in the garden (always with the placement of cut areas with garden pitch);
  • treating garden vegetation from fungal diseases (while maintaining temperature indicators at + 5 ° C or higher), using Bordeaux mixture, “Skor”, “Topaz”, “Topsin” or “Chorus” preparations;
  • pruning and fertilizing ornamental shrub plants, but only before the start of active sap movement within their tissues (you can learn about the beginning of the process by active swelling of the kidneys);
  • protection of the site and homestead territory from mice in the form of placing new and updating old baits;
  • the protection of vegetation from pests, in particular, and birds;
  • sowing cold-resistant crops, such as carrots, leafy greens, onions, beets, radishes;
  • seeding heat-loving vegetables on seedlings (for example, any varieties and varieties of cabbage, tomatoes, cucumbers);
  • sowing seeds of greens on seedlings.
In addition to the above activities, spring processing of the substrate, its feeding and leveling of the beds are possible, with further organization of holes and furrows for planting cold-resistant plants.

How do moon phases affect plant growth and yield?

The moon controls the condition of all fluids on our planet, and this is a fact. In the interval between the rising of the moon and the full moon (the rising moon) there are tides in the oceans and seas, and the water level rises in other water bodies. The tissues of the human body also accumulate fluid, from which energy forces also arrive. Almost the same thing happens with the crops planted on the site.

Did you know? According to research scientists, the moon annually moves away from our planet by about 3.8 cm, which means that after 600 million years from the surface of the Earth it will practically not be visible, at least lunar eclipses will not see earthlings anymore.

The rising moon accounts for the upward sap flow: ranging from the root system to the aerial parts of trees, bushes, flowers and vegetable crops. Along with it, the energy of vegetation increases, thereby accelerating their growth and development. The peak of these processes occurs during the full moon, when the grown crops are full of strength and contain a maximum of nutrients. If we are talking about summer or autumn months, then during the full moon you can do harvesting, the most charged with energy, which will have a positive effect on the human body. Starting from the second day of activity of the full moon, they talk about the beginning of a descending period, characterized by a waste of fluid and a gradual decline in vital activity. In plants, sap flow becomes downward, which means that energy moves from the aboveground part to the roots, where it focuses on the moment of the new moon. At this time, you should not prune, plant or transplant crops, as it will be much more difficult for them to recover from such interventions, especially if the roots are damaged.

Did you know? According to one of the theories of the origin of the moon, it is nothing else as a collection of space debris that appeared after the collision of the protoplanet Theia with the Earth.

The day of the new moon itself, as well as the day before and after this point, is the most opportune time for harvesting the root crops, since all positive energy is concentrated in them. It is not excluded the preparation of medicinal herbs, which will also have a lot of useful properties.

In general, the scheme of planting and planting plants according to the lunar phases is based on the following recommendations:

  • Seeding of seeds is desirable to be carried out on the growing Moon, if possible within the first 10 days from the moment of the new moon, but not on the very day of the lunar ascent;
  • on a growing moon, about 2 days before the appearance of the full moon, it is worth planting perennial seedlings so that they adapt faster and grow;
  • root crops, on the contrary, are better sown during the waning moon, if possible in the first 10 days after the rising of the full moon, but not on the full moon day itself.
Any other garden work has its favorable and unfavorable days, therefore, in order to achieve maximum effectiveness from cultivation of cultivated plants, it is worth considering all the features of the lunar calendar for March 2019.
