My mother taught me that you need to use the lunar calendar for planting plants. So the seedlings will be good and you will certainly harvest the crop. And not only should you think about planting, but you should also take care of indoor plants. Reinforce, feed, trim. And the calendar gives practical advice on the care and watering of indoor plants and not only.

I am an amateur gardener 10 years. At first I did not attach importance to the lunar sowing calendar, I thought it was just meaningless numbers and recommendations. If you planted seedlings, then it must necessarily grow and bear fruit. A neighbor taught me all the tricks. Wisdom was precisely in certain auspicious days on the lunar calendar. What can I add? If you sow the seeds of root vegetables, then you need to do this with a waning moon - all the strength of the plant will go to the root and, as a result, the root crop. And accordingly, the opposite - crops such as cucumbers, tomatoes, all where the fruits are formed on the stem need to be sown and planted on the growing moon. Have a good harvest !!!!
