Lunar sowing calendar for April 218. Gardener-gardener calendar for March. What to do in the middle of the month

The gravitational field of the Moon has a noticeable effect on the biological fields of all living beings, and plants are no exception. Depending on what phase it is in natural satellite Earth is changing direction, concentration and activity of the biological field. This pattern was established by our great-great-grandfathers through many years of observations.

The lunar sowing calendar of the gardener-gardener is compiled based on periods lunar month and Zodiac sign passed by the satellite.

On the new moon, work on caring for cultivated plants (except for watering), as well as their sowing, picking and grafting, is prohibited. These days are best devoted to weed control and cutting of malicious growth.

The growing moon is ideal for transplanting fruit and berry crops, cuttings and top dressing. On the full moon, it is not recommended to do pruning and pinching, but such days are favorable for collecting seeds, removing fruits and harvesting medicinal herbs.

On the waning moon, it is recommended to harvest root crops, dig up bulbs, and cut flowers for sale. All these recommendations are based on the influence of the Moon on vital energy plants, for example, the waxing Moon stimulates the upward flow of energy from the roots to the fruits, and on the waning one, this flow descends into the root system.

The presence of the Moon in a certain sign of the zodiac affects the condition of the soil and affects a certain group of plants. So, the growing Moon under the auspices of Taurus is favorable for sowing most vegetables and flower crops, and the Moon in Gemini is suitable only for ornamental shrubs and climbing plants (roses, loaches, wild grapes and hops).

All these important points were taken into account when compiling the lunar calendar of the gardener and gardener for March, April and May 2016 - a hot period of sowing, cuttings, grafting and growing planting material.

From the first spring day amateur gardeners open the sowing season. And, although the plot is still covered with snow, the length of the sunny day already allows you to grow strong seedlings at home. For the Moscow region, March is the optimal month for sowing most vegetable and flower crops for seedlings; for Siberia and the Far East, these dates are shifted by 2-3 weeks. The sowing calendar of the gardener and gardener in 2016 is a good hint for the successful cultivation of cultivated plants in all regions of Russia.

The following table shows which crops are recommended for seedlings in March.

Favorable days for sowing are marked in yellow, and unfavorable days are marked in black.

On the growing Moon, it is recommended to feed seedlings with microelements, prepare the soil, and when planning sowing and planting, it is necessary to take into account the sign of the zodiac (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn, Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces are considered favorable). The elements of Fire and Air are unfavorable for sowing and picking, although there are exceptions (for example, Libra has a good effect on the germination and survival of flower crops with a bright aroma).

In March, pruning of the garden and planting of fruit trees (for the southern regions) begins. It is better to carry out these works on the 6th, 7th, 12th or 13th. For planting ornamental shrubs, 23, 25, 29 and 31 are favorable.

In April, summer residents have more trouble: more work in the garden and greenhouse. At the same time, beyond the Urals, in Siberia and the Far East, the peak of sowing vegetables for seedlings is coming. Outdoor work is sometimes difficult to reconcile with the recommendations of astrologers because of the capricious spring weather. However, if possible, it is still desirable to adhere to the planting calendar for the spring of 2016.

It is better to pick, pinch and plant seedlings on April 4, 5, 12, 13, 17 or 19. The unfavorable days for these works are April 1-3 and April 27-28.

Thinning seedlings and weeding greenhouse beds can be done on April 22 at the Full Moon, and on April 21 and 23 it is recommended to treat the garden from pests and diseases. It is better to carry out sanitary pruning of fruit trees and berry bushes on April 7, and formative pruning from April 24 to 30. For grafting and cuttings of fruit, the growing Moon in Scorpio, Capricorn, Virgo, Pisces and Taurus is suitable.

For watering and foliar feeding, you should choose the days from April 8 to 21. On the waning moon (1-6 and 23-30), organic fertilizers are allowed under the root. The best watering days are 4, 5, 12, 13, 23, when the Moon passes the signs of the element of Water. Watering is not recommended in the signs of Air: Libra, Gemini, Aquarius (2, 3, 10, 11, 19-21, 29, 30 April).

It is desirable to plant perennials on April 4, 5, 8, 9, 12, 13, 20-26; annuals - 4, 5, 12, 13, 17, 18, 19, 23-26.

The last spring month is the most stressful: seedlings still require care and attention, but there is already a lot to do in the garden. In order to correctly plan garden work, it is useful to know what and when to plant according to the lunar calendar in May.

Sowing seeds for seedlings of vegetable crops in May is recommended to be done on the 2nd, 10th, 11th, 19th, 20th and 29th. It is better to plan pruning of the garden and vaccinations for May 12-15 and May 19-20. auspicious days for preventive phytosanitary treatments of fruit and berry and ornamental crops - from May 1 to 5 and from May 22 to 31, on the same days weeding and destruction of shoots can be carried out.

Astrologers advise planting bulbous flowers on May 2 or 6-7; 17, 18 and 23 are also favorable for sowing perennials.

Watering and fertilizing should be done based on the recommendations described above. In May, especially favorable irrigation days are the 10th, 11th, 14th and 15th.

If it is not possible to sow on a favorable day, choose any nearest neutral day with the growing moon, focusing on the sign of the zodiac. The given planting calendar for the spring of 2016 will help plan crops in such a way that the plants can extract the maximum amount of natural energy to form high yields of quality fruits.

April is a month of contrasts. If at its beginning the weather usually looks more like winter than spring, then at the end it often seems that the cold is already behind. But it's not.

In most cases, in mid-May, return cooling and even frosts are observed, which can destroy heat-loving crops. It is for this reason that there is a list of plants that are recommended to be grown in seedlings, sowing seeds in boxes in mid-spring. What to plant in April?

What is planted and sown in April

Watermelons and melons. In March, it is too early to plant them, because by mid-May they will grow to such an extent that they will clutter up all the window sills. And in the first half of April - perfect! Just remember that they are extremely thermophilic, so you can plant them on the beds no earlier than mid-May and provided that the long-term weather forecast does not promise cold snaps.

Cucumber. Another representative of the gourd family. Sometimes cucumbers are planted even immediately in open ground, but still, this is fraught with a crop shortage due to late fruit ripening. Therefore, the optimal month for sowing cucumber seeds for seedlings is April, preferably the first half.

Pumpkin. Pumpkin, even more often than cucumber, is sown immediately on the beds. But there are two unfavorable factors capable of ruining the crop. Firstly, May is a rather contrasting month in terms of precipitation. Pumpkin seeds can either dry out in the ground or rot. Second, the return of cold in mid-May can increase the likelihood of rotting of barely germinating seedlings. As a result, the summer resident is left without a pumpkin. To reduce these risks, it is advisable to plant it for seedlings in mid-April and move it to the site when the weather stabilizes (usually the second half of May).

Tomatoes. Indeed, it is not too late to plant them in early April, especially early-ripening varieties. So, do not be upset if you thought to do it back in March, but for some reason could not or did not dare. In the same way, early-ripening varieties of bitter or sweet pepper can be sown. These restrictions are removed if there is a greenhouse capable of extending the vegetation period of plants by 3-5 weeks. In this case, it is possible to lay late seedlings of any varieties, preferably greenhouse deterministic ones (for tomatoes).

Corn. This culture grows well in the middle lane and when grown in a seedless way. However, seedling specimens give an earlier harvest of long-awaited cobs. The optimal time is mid-April. Corn is slightly more cold-resistant than the above species, so it can withstand non-critical May cold snaps.

Cabbage. It is customary to plant any type of cabbage in April, and this is a reasonable approach. Cabbage is thermophilic, and the short summer of the middle zone ends too quickly for it. In order for the heads of cabbage to ripen, cabbage seeds should be sown for seedlings in the first half of the month.

some flowers: dahlias, carnations, sunflowers, asters.

The peculiarities of April plantings include the fact that the plants do not need to be illuminated, since the daylight hours already exceed 12 hours, and also the possibility of earlier planting of some cold-resistant species (corn, sunflower, flowers). The latter is convenient for unloading window sills, when by the beginning of May the seedlings are already becoming overall. If long-term forecasts do not promise severe cold, then why not make it easier for yourself?

Thus, the seedling method protects the summer resident from weather risks, accelerates the fruiting of plants, increases their productivity and prolongs the favorable time for fruit ripening, since the ovaries form earlier. We wish you success in the coming season!

To choose the most favorable days for sowing vegetable and flower crops, as well as for carrying out other work in the garden and in the garden, you need to check the table of work of the gardener, gardener and flower grower.

In the lunar sowing calendar for these works, we recommend days free from sowing and planting work.

The lunar calendar shows the dates of sowing and planting of many plants. These are fruit and ornamental trees, berry and ornamental shrubs, annual and perennial flower and berry crops. Our lunar calendar tells about favorable sowing and planting dates for almost all vegetable crops bred in the Middle lane, with in a different way cultivation: planting, forcing, sowing, through seedlings, including in a greenhouse, on a windowsill and in open ground.

The lunar calendar of sowing and planting for each day contains astronomical information indicating the exact time of the moon's entry into each sign of the zodiac, the hours of the full moon and new moon, the time of sunrise and sunset, the time of sunrise and sunset and the length of the daylight hours. If the Moon enters some sign of the zodiac during the day, then in the lunar calendar in the column of recommendations for sowing and planting, a note is given before the specified hour sowing, planting and caring for plants according to the recommendations of the previous day of the lunar calendar.

In addition, the lunar calendar of sowing and planting for each day contains folk omens according to the moon and signs for the harvest from the folk agricultural calendar.

Astronomical information about the Sun in our calendar

If you observe the position of the Sun long enough, for example, during the year, you will notice that its height above the horizon on different days will not be the same - the largest is on June 21-22, and the smallest is on December 21-22. In different years, these events fall on different days. These days are called the days of summer and winter solstice. Twice a year, March 20-21 and September 22-23, the Sun rises exactly in the east and sets exactly in the west. These days it is under and above the horizon at the same time (that is, the day is equal to the night), and therefore they are called the days of the spring and autumn equinoxes. Between March 21 and September 22, the sun rises north of the point east and, vice versa, between September 23 and March 21 to the south of it.

Traditionally, March 21, June 22, September 23 and December 22 are considered the beginning of the seasons in the northern hemisphere of the Earth: spring, summer, autumn and winter.

We publish information on which days the listed astronomical events fall this year in the daily lunar calendar, which is given above.

How to grow plants in the rhythm of the moon phases

The very topic of the influence on the growth and development of plants of the position of the planets in the zodiac circle, in particular the closest satellite of our planet - the Moon, the interaction of the phases of the Moon and growth, plant development, and the activity of microbiological processes in the soil is interesting.

The influence of the Moon on earthly affairs has been known since ancient times. It is with this planet that the tidal and ebb phenomena of the oceanic and sea ​​waters, as well as fluctuations in electromagnetic fields that affect the weather. It is believed that during the full moon, the above-ground parts of plants are filled with juice to a greater extent, and at the new moon, it seems to tend to recede to the roots. In the first case, there is a stronger hydration of the tissues, in the second - some dryness. From here, studies of the influence of the moon on plants take place, and on the basis of the knowledge gained, a lunar calendar is compiled for each day of the current year.

Plants are influenced not only by the phases of the moon, but also by its position in the signs of the zodiac. It is better to plant when our companion is in the constellations of Taurus, Cancer, Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces. Fight weeds when she is in the signs of Aries, Gemini, Sagittarius, Aquarius. The presence of the Moon in the constellation Aries encourages the collection of fruits - they are better stored. Moving to the constellation of Libra is favorable for watering and vaccinations, to the constellation of Leo - for mowing and weeding, Sagittarius - for digging up root crops, Aquarius - for destroying pests.

According to the experience of astrological observations, the zodiac signs are divided into productive (fertile): Taurus, Cancer, Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces, and unproductive (infertile): Aries, Gemini, Leo, Virgo, Sagittarius, Aquarius. Planting and sowing fruit and ornamental plants according to the lunar calendar is best done when the Moon is in a productive zodiac sign.

How is the lunar calendar of sowing and planting for every day

From the angle of practical consideration, the recommendations of the lunar calendar will be consistent if they correspond to the local calendar dates for sowing and planting crops. Due to the dissimilarity of climatic conditions, landscape, soil in different areas, it is impossible to develop a single lunar calendar. If we calculate the timing of sowing crops in another specific area, then we will get significant dissimilarity. In one case, these will be belated dates, in the other - too early (compare the south of Russia and the Urals). Agricultural work, as well as care and cleaning work, are also associated with the length of daylight hours.

The local folk calendar, traditional experience, accumulated knowledge are the main support in the practical activities of the gardener, florist and gardener. For neighboring regions, any lunar calendar needs to be amended regarding the deadlines for sowing and planting, taking into account the conditions of a particular area. Data on the exact time of the Moon's entry into the zodiac constellation can be obtained from the calendar (tear-off calendar) for gardeners and gardeners or the astrological calendar.

The weather also does not fall year on year - there are early and late springs, which is also taken into account when compiling the lunar calendar.

The dates of the passage of the phases of the moon do not coincide by year. In almost a month, the Moon passes through 12 constellations, called the signs of the Zodiac. The following year, the lunar calendar is shifted by 10 days. The dates of the passage of the phases of the moon are repeated after 19 years. Every year, the daily sowing and planting calendar is amended for the specific shape of the season and for the lunar phase.

AT April 2019 the sowing and planting season of work in the garden and vegetable garden continues. In order to correctly navigate the timing of planting and the most favorable days for gardening, summer residents often rely on the phases of the moon. The optimal result and good yields are obtained if you use the advice of the agrotechnical calendar of seasonal work and the recommendations of the Lunar calendar.

Lunar calendar gardener-gardener for April 2019

The days of the growing moon are traditionally considered the most favorable for sowing, planting and other agricultural work in the garden. But at the same time, it is always necessary to take into account the influence of other factors - first of all, the sign of the zodiac, then the lunar day, the day of the week and the phase of the moon (growing or waning). On the New Moon, it is better to postpone all work on planting, transplanting, picking and planting plants.
