According to the gardener's lunar calendar for August 2017, this month is filled with the smells and tastes of summer. Gardening and gardening chores are bearing fruit. The main concern of this month is to process the crop and prepare planting material.

In the garden, make sure that no carrion lies under the trees. Fruits affected by diseases and pests are destroyed. Particular attention is paid to young plantings. August is the hottest month of the year and you need to water regularly and protect trees from pests and diseases.

August is the best time to propagate red and black currants with lignified cuttings. For cuttings, it is better to use ripe strong shoots of the current year with well-formed buds, as well as growth from branches 2-4 years old. Shrubs such as clematis, honeysuckle, forsythia by green and semi-lignified cuttings or layers are also propagated throughout the month.

August is a very favorable time for laying a lawn.

In August, it is good to divide and plant perennial flowers, while all divided plants should be immediately planted in a permanent place and watered abundantly. We divide and propagate the following perennials (primroses, lilies, peonies, delphinium, phlox, astilbe ...).

In August, they continue to regularly harvest vegetables, preventing them from overripe. Timely harvesting promotes flowering, setting and ripening of new fruits. Only those fruits that are left for seeds are allowed to ripen. They pay great attention to watering, because this month there is an active ripening of the crop. Water abundantly every 6 to 8 days, followed by loosening and mulching. When watering, care must be taken that water does not fall on the leaves. This month, onions and garlic are harvested with their further drying for at least 20 days. If these crops are not removed and dried in time, the bulbs will sprout and the teeth will crumble. For autumn consumption, we sow radishes, dill, salads, kohlrabi, radish, Chinese cabbage, daikon, spinach, coriander. Prepare a place for autumn planting onions and garlic.

After all, people are not even advised to visit salons or cut their nails. Why is New Moon so scary? Here comes the influence of the Moon itself, not the constellation.

The ancients considered the Moon to be a separate, powerful deity, the real queen of the Night. Moreover, most cultures give the luminary a female name. Their Sun is a bright, prominent man, and the Moon is a mysterious, beautiful woman. On New Moon the nights are the darkest and most terrible, because the Moon disappears, it needs time, strength for a new rebirth.

By the way, whoever has lawns can mow now. At the same time, the growth of plants will be slowed down, which will keep the lawn fresh, well-groomed for a long time.

Mowing is easier to postpone if you are planning more than one. Continue to replenish the rows in warehouses or mezzanine shelves with blanks. There is no need to be greedy here, most regions are famous for long, harsh winters, when they only dream of fresh, tasty fruits or some vegetables. By the way, thrifty housewives, along with the preparations, take seasonal vegetables, some fruits and simply freeze them in convenient, small conveyors. Those retain their taste.

A similar habit came from parents, when it was a common thing to get canned food or preparations in winter. And now, when it seems that there are so many things on the shelves, people continue to make blanks.

This is justified. Most of the store compotes or preserves are not natural, there are chemical additives, stabilizers.

Around - apple trees, on the sides - plums darken, berries are visible with red dots, and below there are many bushes from strawberries. And everything is beautiful, juicy, natural, a scattering of vitamins! And the harvest is enough to form preparations, eat now, treat friends ... such places are not in vain considered paradise gardens or vegetable gardens.

Many then, having matured, continue the tradition, creating their own gardens. Of course, this is work, moreover, daily, regular and sometimes hard. A lot of nerves. But the result always pays for the effort. some, on the contrary, tend to land, fleeing from noisy, big cities. They are fond of rural, unhurried evenings, cock crowing.

Every year they spring-summer, then autumn is the hottest time full of various things. At the same time, the lunar sowing calendar, updated for 2017 by the gardener and the gardener, distributes August into separate, alternating periods. There are no completely unlucky or bad days.

Humus or chicken manure, although some fertilizers need to be purchased separately. Also, don't forget about grafting trees. It's time for gardeners to cut ripe, blooming flowers, then form beautiful, diverse bouquets from them.

The significant influence of a natural earth satellite has been discussed for many centuries. People have long followed the movement of stars in the firmament, and have established many patterns of how the moon affects all life in different ways in different phases of its life.

Before starting work, familiarize yourself well with the phase in which the moon is currently in. Remember some rules, and your harvest will meet your expectations and the efforts put into it.

The effects of the moon on plants

You should not engage in planting, transplanting plants at a time when the moon is under the power of the sign of Leo or Aquarius - these are the most destructive signs for the vitality of a plant.
