The moon does not stop its growth, the vitality of plants continues to increase. Plants diligently suck out water and minerals from the earth.
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, gourds, greens, berry bushes, wild strawberries and strawberries.
Waxing Moon (+ )
The moon is in phase Waxing Crescent. circulation vitality and plant juices, the activity of the biofield is directed from the roots up, from the center to the periphery. This is the period of the most intensive development of the aerial parts of plants.
The seed planted at this time receives a program for more active upward growth, intensive development of above-ground biomass. By pruning plants during this period, we awaken dormant buds and new shoots quickly grow from them. It is important to know the measure when pruning, otherwise the plant may bleed and die.
On the growing moon it is favorable:
- sowing, planting and transplanting green, leafy, fruit and melon crops;
- boarding and transfer fruit trees, berry bushes and strawberries;
- tillage, watering and mineral dressing, rooting of cuttings;
- graft.
On the growing moon is not favorable:
- Budding. The roots at this time react little to damage, but the survival rate and viability of the root system are reduced, therefore, plants planted and transplanted during this period should be constantly monitored.
Influence of the day of the week (±)
Day of the week - Friday, this day is under the auspices of Venus - a mysterious, mysterious and bright planet. It has long been considered Women's Day. On this day, girls and women were supposed to rest, not to load themselves with any business.
Since Venus patronizes grace and beauty, creating a feeling of peace in a person, on Friday it is best to take care of the garden and its landscaping, 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 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 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, even more often than cucumber, is sown immediately on the beds. But there are two adverse factors that can ruin 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 more early harvest long-awaited ears. Optimal time- 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 middle lane ends too soon for her. 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 auspicious days for sowing vegetable and flower crops, as well as for other work in the garden and in the garden, it is necessary to check the table of work of the gardener, gardener and flower grower.
