Lunar Sowing Calendar for February 2019

Choosing time for crops, transplants, pruning and other garden and gardening procedures, gardeners often pay attention to the lunar calendar. The phases of the moon do influence the way a plant reacts to an outside intervention in a certain way. On the February calendar gardener in 2019 and favorable days for gardening works - read below.

Zodiac constellations and lunar influence on planting

In addition to favorable climatic conditions and proper agrotechnology of cultivation, the development and fruiting of plants is influenced by the current phase of the moon and the zodiac constellation in which it is located. The definition of recommendations for gardening with an eye on the phase of the moon is called the synodal method.

The movement of the satellite, according to a number of scientists, affects the movement of vegetable juices. The growth and rooting rate, the reaction to damage and the extraneous impact in general depend on this. Depending on this, gardeners determine whether it is possible to sow, replant or prune the plant on a particular day.

Did you know? The oldest lunar calendars were used by representatives of the Orignac culture, who lived on the territory of modern Germany and France 32-26 thousand years ago. These were the bones of animals and stones with crescents drawn on them.

More accurate details regarding the reaction of garden and horticultural crops shows the sideral method. It consists in defining the moon in the zodiac constellation. All signs of the zodiac are divided according to the degree of fertility. The more fertile sign, the more crop will be planted on this day. Thus, in order to determine favorable and not the best days for planting and transplanting plants, it is advisable to take into account the moon phase and the zodiacal constellation in which the moon is located.

The theory that phases of the moon affect the plant world has both fans and opponents. Not all scientists and agronomists attach importance to the lunar calendar. However, the influence of the satellite on Earth and living beings is incontrovertible. Thus, the rotation of a celestial body causes ebb and flow. Affects the moon and the human body.

Physical and mental health deteriorates or improves at the moment when the Moon enters an unfavorable or favorable phase for the human body. Especially the influence of the satellite notice people susceptible to external influences and weather changes. Thus, it confirms the fact that living beings feel the movement of a celestial body on themselves.

Did you know? On the territory of modern Russia, archaeologists have discovered the lunar calendar, 18 thousand years old. He was found during research near the city of Achinsk in the Krasnoyarsk Territory on the Achinsk Paleolithic site.

The truth of the hypothesis is confirmed by the gardeners themselves. On practical experience, it has been proven that crops planted on a growing moon grow better and produce greater yield. At the same time, the plants planted strictly on the new moon, poorly rooted and poorly fruited.

Farmers are less trusting about zodiac constellations. If the influence of the moon is proved physically and astronomically, then the relationship between yield and the sign of the zodiac can be considered astrological to a greater extent. The problem also lies in the fact that data on the classification of signs is different. Some astrologers point to the ruling element. Thus, they divide the zodiac constellations into four categories according to the elements. This is what limits their influence. Other experts divide them in another way. The classification is divided into five groups according to the degree of fertility. Nevertheless, farmers also use the zodiacal phases. In some cases, their influence is also confirmed.

Lunar calendar of the gardener and gardener for February 2019

The lunar calendar is different from the usual month and week calculus. It is based on the movement of the satellite around the Earth. That is why the lunar calendar for January will be different from the calendar for October, December and other months.

Knowing the phase of the moon and the constellation in which the satellite is on a particular day, we can conclude that the plant is susceptible. This gardeners and determine favorable and unfavorable dates.

The most favorable days for planting and caring for them

Given the above dates and their compliance with the moon phases and the signs of the zodiac, it is possible to determine good days for sowing, planting, transplanting and trimming.

Pay attention also to the days that will be unfavorable for all types of work:

ProcedureAuspicious day
Sowing on seedlings and planting6-8, 11-13, 16-17
Transplant, trimming1-3, 22-25, 28
Adverse time for work4-5, 19

Important! On the 19th of the day of the full moon, you can harvest, but at the end of winter mass fruiting of any crop is unlikely. But if you grow year-round fruit plants in the greenhouse, this date is quite suitable for harvesting.

Navigation in the lunar calendar gardener and gardener

Navigation through the calendar is based on the lunar phase and the current constellation. These factors are important not separately, but in combination with each other.

Determine the time of planting, transplanting and cutting should be based on what phase the moon is in:

  1. Growing When the Earth satellite is in the growth phase, plant juices begin to actively rise from the root system to the shoots and fruits. Any damage to the stems, leaves or roots heal faster than usual. During this period, sowing of seeds is encouraged. This is also a favorable period for transplanting seedlings to a permanent place. Particularly favorable growth of the moon affects fruit trees and grass. This is due to the fact that such crops need an influx of vegetable juices to the top. If you choose the time for their landing, it is better to pay attention to the period of the growing moon.
  2. Full moon. If during the period of mass fruiting comes the full moon, it is better to harvest on that day. Transplanting and cropping are not recommended. Sowing and planting seedlings is also worth the wait.
  3. Decreasing. If in the growth phase plant juices rise from the rhizome to the stalks, then with the diminishing moon the juices, on the contrary, return to the rhizome. Plant at this time should be the roots and ornamental crops. These plants need to feed rhizomes. That is why the waning moon favorably affects their growth. Other types of plants respond well to activities related to care - formation, vaccinations, transplants.
  4. New moon. During the new moon period, it is recommended that only emergency manipulations be performed. For example, you can handle a diseased plant. The remaining procedures should not be carried out.

Important! The main factor in sowing, planting, transplanting or any other procedures is the timing indicated by the originators. It is not worthwhile to postpone the procedure for a long time, even if the lunar calendar indicates this. Only deviations of 1-2 days are allowed.

According to the constellations are oriented as follows:

  1. Very fertile signs. These include signs Taurus, Scorpio, Cancer and Pisces. Seedlings sown during this period or transplanted to a permanent place, will actively and abundantly bear fruit. The yield of the planted crop sometimes exceeds the average.
  2. Fertile signs. Among them - Libra and Capricorn. They have less impact on fruiting, but when the satellite is in these constellations, it is also recommended to sow and plant the plants.
  3. Infertility marks. This list includes Virgo, Gemini and Sagittarius. Crops planted during this period will bear fruit, but yields will be less than average.
  4. Barren signs. This is Aries and Leo. Plants will grow, but will produce a small amount of the crop. Part of the fruit is likely to die, or empty ovaries will form.
  5. Barren sign. Aquarius is a sign that has a destructive effect on plants. Sown seeds, most likely, will not grow, and seedlings will not take root during transplantation.

The lunar phase, in conjunction with the constellation in which the satellite resides, indicate the feasibility of garden work. So, on the day when the new moon is in the sign of Aquarius, you should not interfere in the development of plants and sow the seeds for seedlings.

If the growing moon is in one of the fertile signs, for example, in the constellation Pisces, Scorpio, Taurus or Cancer, sowing and planting will most favorably affect the subsequent development of the plant.

The lunar calendar of the gardener and gardener for March, April and May 2019.

Zodiac signs are also divided by elements. Each is responsible for a particular care procedure:

  1. Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Fish). During this period, it is better to sow leafy crops, carry out their hilling, dive seedlings.
  2. Earth (Taurus, Capricorn, Virgo). The constellations of earth signs of the zodiac accompany the growth of root crops, therefore these days it is worthwhile to deal with potatoes, carrots, horseradish, etc.
  3. Fire (Sagittarius, Aries, Leo). In the period when the moon is in the fiery constellation, it is better to deal with tomatoes, cucumbers, fruit trees, legumes, berries.
  4. Air (Aquarius, Gemini, Libra). The moment is favorable for planting and caring for ornamental flowering plants.

In those days when it is impossible to carry out planting or plant care activities, flower growers and gardeners are advised to start preparing for the spring. You can do inventory cleaning, snow raking, buying fertilizer, or digging up the soil in greenhouses.

However, urgent procedures are allowed at any time. These include treatment of pests and diseases. If the plant is threatened with death, do not pay attention to the moon phases and zodiac signs. Significant harm such a violation will not bring. On the contrary, timely spraying and transplants for diseases can save the plant.

With the proper allocation of resources, the farmer will not have problems with timely gardening. A secondary factor in determining the timing will be the lunar calendar. Thanks to knowledge of the current phase of the moon, the gardener can positively affect the yield or activity of rooting of a particular crop.
