Always the sowing calendar for 2017 for the middle strip of Russia is taking into account the Lunar calendar. Scientists note how strongly the satellite of our planet affects the movement of water. Including the movement of water inside the plant. This liquid is also called plant juice, and it is responsible for active growth and fertility.
If you consider sowing calendar for 2017 for central Russia in the table, you can see exactly the unfavorable days. The rest of the lunar acres can be either favorable or neutral. Do not be afraid of neutral days. Because, in fact, there are most of them during each month.
How are the days of the lunar calendar
If you carefully consider the usual calendar of the gardener, which can be bought for a penny at any kiosk, then the phases of the moon will be marked in it. These are specific astrological values that are calculated with maximum accuracy for years to come. But how to use these marks for your garden purposes?
There are absolutely no difficulties here. The moon can grow, decrease or be in the full moon, the new moon. The moon wanes and the plant somewhere for 12 days, forming its quarters. Already this knowledge will be enough to independently draw conclusions when drawing up the sowing calendar. If the moon grows, then the plant's juices are at the top (a tide occurs in nature). If the moon is waning, then all the juices are concentrated below (low tide). When the moon is full or, conversely, a new moon, the juices stop and do not move at all (full calm).
Calculation of favorable and unfavorable days
If need to plant plants, which bear fruit in the upper part (cucumbers, peppers, tomatoes, etc.), you should plant them and provide all the basic care to the growing moon. Root crops (potatoes, radishes, etc.) are planted in the waning moon. As for the full moon and new moon - these are unfavorable days for garden work, because the juice in the plants freezes. If you need to get rid of some kind of culture, for example, weeds, then these lunar days are suitable for this.
But everything is not so simple, except for a certain phase of the Moon when compiling a specific sowing calendar for 2017 for central Russia for flowers, vegetables, berries, astrologers also take into account the presence of the Moon in a particular constellation. Some constellations have a good effect on fertility, but others: they destroy it in the bud.
