The timing of planting pepper for seedlings in 2017 in the middle lane

14.03.2016 Pepper The calendar

To plant pepper seeds for seedlings in central Russia, you need to choose the right time for planting, and also compare your calculations not only with time, temperature outside the window, but also with the zodiac sign. It is known that seedlings need to be planted when the moon passes by certain signs of the zodiac, we already wrote about this here. But still, let's figure out what is the timing of planting pepper for seedlings in 2017 in the middle lane.

Moon and planting

Since this celestial body takes part in the ebbs and flows of our planet, has gravitational force, it is also able to influence the planting of plants. They begin to grow, gain strength or wither away if the time for planting pepper on seedlings is chosen incorrectly. Choose the zodiac sign of the moon and its phase according to a special astrological program, which is on the Internet. In order to correctly select the time, you need to enter the city nearest to you in a special field, the time of which corresponds to your time zone and see what day and when the moon goes into a particular zodiac sign. Then watch when it is best to plant the plant.

The best time to land is the new moon and the first 15 days of the growing moon, before the full moon. At this time, the moon is only gaining strength, which is reflected in the plant and contributes to its growth. Therefore, at first, you need to plant plants, referring to the lunar calendar, then not only to it.

This month, the first days of the new moon begin from March 9 to March 19. At this time, the moon arrives in various signs, which also affect the time of planting pepper on seedlings. This is influenced by the zodiac sign in which the moon is located.

The timing of planting pepper seedlings in 2017

Fiery signs such as Aries, the calm Leo and the mobile, sparkling Sagittarius cause a strong growth of the plant, but in the summer days they can easily destroy it. It is for this reason that astrologers do not advise planting plants in the summer, or in May, in hot weather. This will not happen in the middle lane, as there is not such a hot climate as in Southern Russia, but at the same time, rapid growth and severe death of the plant may occur. It is for this reason that it is not worth planting a plant in fire signs, even with the growing moon.

If she is in the earth constellation Virgo, Taurus or Capricorn - this is a great time. Mother Earth and earthly elements give strong fertility, although plant growth will not be the fastest. It is these zodiac signs that are most favorable for planting a plant in the ground, especially seedlings, but before doing this, it is better to harden the plant. This is best done before May or early June, so that the seedlings take root in the ground.

The air element does not contribute to the plant. Usually, lush plants with light leaves are planted at this time and peppers should not be treated. For this reason, various vegetables should not be planted if the Moon is in the sign of Aquarius, Gemini or Libra.

And finally, the water element is completely unfavorable for plant growth. It not only begins to grow slowly, but can gradually wither away completely, especially with strong humidity or constant frequent watering.

Temperature mode

In addition to the above factors, the air temperature also affects the plant. Seeds for seedlings should be planted at the end of February until the end of March, and in regions close to the northern ones and completely until mid-April. It is at this time that it is possible to carry out not only the hardening of plants, but also various hardening procedures with them, so that they more easily take root in the ground.

They need to be planted in greenhouses or in open ground only when the temperature stably stays at about 15 degrees. Here, the planting dates largely depend on the weather forecast, but in order for the plant to grow stronger and take root, before planting it in the ground, it must be subjected to a hardening procedure. There are several options for this procedure, but the most optimal and best is the one that is done within 10 days. For this, the plant must be alternately exposed to different temperatures of a contrasting nature. 2 days - 22 degrees Celsius, 2 days - 0 or -1. Then you can do +15, and then -1, and so on alternately.

In the middle lane, it is best to plant pepper for seedlings until mid-March or early April, depending on the average temperature in the region. This way you will know when it is best to plant them in a seedling box. But do not forget about preparing the seeds for planting, so that they are all fertile, and there are no empty seeds.

Weather

It is important to look at the weather for precipitation as well. It is best to plant pepper seeds on seedlings during sunny but cool weather. If the weather is cloudy, it is very important to plant them when there is no severe cold, as seedlings can grow very poorly and some shoots will die. To prevent this from happening, you must always choose the right planting time in order to make the plant healthy and quite viable. It happens that in the middle zone of Russia there are abnormal frosts or, on the contrary, heat. If this begins, you need to wait and wait for stable weather. Because often, due to abnormal heat or, on the contrary, frost, there is a change in weather, which is very harmful for a young plant.

This year, many experts advise planting pepper seedlings in May from about 15 to 17, depending on weather conditions. If there is an abnormal heat, the time can be chosen earlier. In open ground, seedlings should be planted before June 10. But this norm is relative, since even in some regions of our country and in May, severe frosts or abnormal heat can occur, which can destroy immature plants. It is for this reason that it is worthwhile to quickly transplant the plant into the ground during the heat, since high temperatures are detrimental to pepper, especially for young plants. With even and cool weather, it is worth planting pepper in a greenhouse in early May, so that then they can be hardened longer and carry out all the necessary procedures. Then the pepper will take root in the ground and very soon will delight you with beautiful flowering and aromatic fruits. The main thing is to choose the right temperature and monitor it correctly.
