8 lunar day (-)
April 15, 2016 at 12:00 - 8 lunar day... on this day, plants have every chance of acquiring a great impulse that will be able to help them throughout the month. The moon does not stop growing, the vitality of plants continues to increase. Plants diligently suck water and minerals from the ground.
This day is characterized by unstable energy. This is an intermediate stage between the first and second phases of the Moon, as a result of which the 8th lunar day is considered unfavorable for work in the garden and garden.
- harvesting tops and leaves;
- watering plants.
- rooting, planting, transplanting, cuttings of vegetable, fruit, melons and gourds, herbs, berry bushes, wild strawberries and strawberries.
Waxing Moon (+)
The moon is in phase Waxing Crescent... circulation of vitality and plant sap, the activity of the biofield is directed upward from the roots, from the center to the periphery. This is the period of the most intensive development of aboveground parts of plants.
The seed planted at this time receives a program for more active upward growth, intensive development of aboveground biomass. By pruning plants during this period, we awaken dormant buds and new shoots grow rapidly from them. It is important to know the measure when pruning, otherwise the plant may sap and die.
On the growing moon, it is favorable:
- sowing, planting and transplanting green, leafy, fruit and melon crops;
- landing and transfer fruit trees, berry bushes and strawberries;
- tillage, watering and mineral fertilizing, rooting of cuttings;
- graft.
On the growing moon, it is not favorable:
- Budding. The roots at this time react little to damage, but the survival rate and vitality of the root system are reduced, therefore, the plants planted and transplanted during this period should be constantly monitored.
Day of the week influence (±)
Day of the week - friday, this day is under the auspices of Venus - a mysterious, mysterious and bright planet. It has been considered a women's day since ancient times. On this day, girls and women were supposed to rest, not to burden themselves with any business.
Since Venus patronizes grace and beauty, creating a sense of serenity in a person, then on Friday it is best to take care of the garden and its improvement, at the same time freeing the site from everything unnecessary. The best thing is to prepare for the coming week. And in no way try to do all the work in the garden until the end of the working day.
April is a month of contrasts. If at the beginning the weather usually looks more like winter than spring, then at the end it often seems that the cold is already behind. But this is not the case.
In most cases, in mid-May, there are recurrent cold snaps and even frosts, which can destroy thermophilic crops. It is for this reason that there is a list of plants that are recommended to be grown by the seedling method, sowing seeds in boxes in mid-spring. What to plant in April?
What is planted and sown in April
Watermelons and melons. It is too early to plant them in March, since by mid-May they will grow to such an extent that they will clutter up all the windowsills. And in the first half of April - perfect! Just remember that they are extremely thermophilic, so they can be planted in the beds not earlier than mid-May and provided that the long-term weather forecast does not promise cold snaps.
Cucumber. Another representative of the pumpkin family. Sometimes cucumbers are even planted immediately in open ground, but still, this is fraught with a shortage of crops due to late ripening fruits. Therefore, the optimal month for sowing cucumber seeds for seedlings is April, preferably the first half.
Pumpkin. Pumpkin is even more often than cucumber, sown directly to the beds. But there are two unfavorable factors that can ruin the harvest. Firstly, May is a rather contrasting month in terms of precipitation. Pumpkin seeds can either dry out in the ground or rot. Secondly, the return 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 on seedlings in mid-April and relocate 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 maturing 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, you can sow early-maturing varieties of bitter or sweet pepper. These restrictions are removed if there is a greenhouse capable of extending the growing season of plants by 3-5 weeks. In this case, you can lay late seedlings of any varieties, preferably greenhouse deterministic (for tomatoes).
Corn. This culture grows well in the middle lane and when grown in a seedless way. However, seedlings give more early harvest long-awaited cobs. Optimal term - mid-April. Corn is slightly more cold-resistant than the above types, therefore it can withstand uncritical cold snaps in May.
Cabbage. All types of cabbage are usually planted in April, and this is a sensible approach. Cabbage is thermophilic and the summer is short middle band ends too quickly for her. So that the heads of cabbage have time to ripen, sow cabbage seeds for seedlings should be in the first half of the month.
Some flowers: dahlias, carnations, sunflowers, asters.
The peculiarities of the April plantings include the fact that the plants do not need to be highlighted, since the duration of daylight hours already exceeds 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 large. If long-term forecasts do not promise severe cold weather, 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 are formed earlier. We wish you every success in the coming season!
To choose the most auspicious 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 works of the gardener, gardener and florist.
