Despite the fact that it is winter outside, gardeners are already worried about the upcoming spring season and are carefully studying favorable days for planting tomatoes. The annual search for favorable days on the Lunar calendar in February and March takes a lot of time with a real vegetable grower, and not only in 2019, but annually.

Indeed, it is during these months that seeds are planted on seedlings for greenhouses and open ground, work begins on its cultivation and planting in the ground - greenhouse or open.

Cosmic forces and earthly juices
Planet Earth is impossible to imagine without the moon. Two of the brightest cosmic bodies in the sky were constantly observed by man, from ancient times to the present. The only Earth satellite, for some reason, is one of the largest satellites in the solar system. Carrying out permanent observation of the lunar cycles, a man who has been thinking for the past millennia has made certain conclusions.
With a careful study of the lunar cycle, it turned out that for 29.5 days passed by the planet, under the influence of gravity, the Earth affects the Moon, and its constant companion, due to its incredible size, affects the Earth cycles processes on a huge planet.
Ebbs and flows, the movement of juices in terrestrial plants, the growth of hair and nails in humans, the germination of seeds laid in the ground - all these are cycles controlled by the moon. And Selena herself is slowly but steadily moving away from her mistress because of the frictional force created by her own attraction.
People are well aware that the phases and cycles of the moon depend on the order of motion of the planets in the solar system. This eliminates mysticism and superstition, but does not detract from the importance of determining the right time to plant cabbage, cucumbers, or tomatoes. An experienced gardener always focuses on Moon calendar, whether in March 2019 or in any other month, when work is done on the cultivation of vegetables, fruits and flowers.
With the acquisition of information space, modern man gained access to many sources related to European or Asian culture, and did not discard valuable bits of knowledge that were accumulated by representatives of other civilizational strata. However, any nation and race is guided by the lunar calendar, because it would be unreasonable to deny the influence of lunar attraction on the processes taking place on Earth.
In March 2019, there are some favorable days when you can deal with seedlings and seeds, according to the dates determined by the Lunar calendar. For planting tomatoes, they are dictated by several indicators at once - the number of the month, the phase of the moon, the sign of the zodiac, under the influence of which there is a night luminary, and even the day of the week, on which the date falls, promising a beautiful crop. The authors of these charts are scientists and astrologers.
The former provide factual data on the movement and interaction of celestial bodies, while the latter provide the best time for planting tomatoes. And this is taken into account in February and March 2019, informing vegetable growers, gardeners and gardeners about the need to accurately select the planting date, depending on climatic conditions.
Control, planting, landscaping, changing conditions
Experienced gardeners prefer full tables. In them, for their convenience, the Lunar calendar is displayed in the form of a complete set indicating the phase of the lunar cycle, the zodiac sign in which the Moon is located on a certain day of the month (because it also matters, and considerable), and the immediate dates, which are the most favorable or obstructive days spentplanting tomatoes in March 2024. For planting your favorite tomatoes, many vegetable growers take into account the days of the week.
To achieve the desired result, plant growers are carefully looking at the achievements of science, and the common superstitions. They know from practical experience that it is necessary to carefully monitor the weather calendar with a long-term forecast.
For this, there are special online calendars, with reference to the area of residence, and long-term forecasts made by the Hydrometeorological Center based on data from space satellites. The importance of taking climatic conditions into account does not need proof: in the South and in the North, fruit ripening begins at different times, as does planting in open ground.
This new year, Earthen Pig promises good weather and plentiful harvests, but this does not mean that you can relax and not do the usual work.
