Plant juices also respond to phases. The article will focus on the distribution of garden works in January 2019 according to the lunar calendar.
Favorable and unfavorable days of January for planting seedlings and plants
The use of the lunar calendar helps gardeners to achieve higher germination, stronger plant growth. The task of the calendar is to describe the timing of these or other works, taking into account the phases of the lunar cycle. It can also indicate the signs of the zodiac, in which the satellite of the Earth will be on a particular day.
When choosing the right landing dates, several rules are used:
- If the moon grows, then what grows on the surface of the earth is planted.
- The seeds of those crops that form root crops and grow edible in the soil are sown in the descending phase.
- When choosing a time for planting, take into account the characteristics of the zodiac sign and the properties that are characteristic of it. The sign should be favorable for planting the planned culture.
- In the period of a new moon or full moon, starting from 12 hours before their beginning and ending with 12 hours after their end, it is not recommended to sow or plant any plants.
- Gardening should not be carried out if the Moon is off course or on days when a solar or lunar eclipse occurs.
Did you know? January is named after the Roman god Janus, who was always depicted with two heads. He looked back at last year and was waiting for a new one.
The calendar can also take into account the time when the moon enters one or another sign. It is possible that several signs will change during the day, which makes it possible to carry out different types of work inherent in them in one day. The calendar will be your assistant in providing the best harvest with minimal energy. It is not necessary to discount the proper care of plants: watering, microclimate, fertilizing. Agricultural activities have a higher priority than observing the phases of the lunar calendar .

At the beginning of January
The moon meets the new 2019 year in a descending phase. She is in Scorpio. This is a wonderful fertile sign for planting root crops. At this time, the moon is waning, and the juices are sent to the root system. At the same time, plants are fed. Between January 5 and 10, a new moon will come. And at this time you should not plant plants . But you can do other work: pruning plants, cleaning snow from the roofs of greenhouses, preparing seeds and tools for spring garden work.
Did you know? The Roman calendar was created 10 months ago. The year lasted 304 days. The winter months were not considered days of the year. And only about 713 BC e. Romulus's half-mythical successor, King Numa Pompilius, fixed the problem. He added another 2 months to the calendar. It was January and February. As a result, the calendar became equal to the standard lunar year (355 days).

The effect of the phases of the moon on plant growth
The lunar phases in horticulture include four stages or quarters of about seven days each . The first two phases are, of course, the growing moon. It lasts from the new moon and ends with a full moon. At this time, the amount of light increases all the time.
Lunar gravity forms the ebb and flow . It affects water in any water body. Plants are more than 80% water, so they are also affected by gravity. During high tide with the full moon, more water appears in the ground. From this, the seeds begin to germinate, and planted plants develop more actively.
Lunar sowing calendar on:
February
March
In the waning phase of the moon, the juice descends to the roots. At this moment, it is good to cut branches, to carry out work on planting trees and bushes. You can fertilize the soil or water, as the roots better absorb both nutrients and moisture at this time.

The period of the waning moon
The next 2 quarters are a decrease from the full moon to the new moon . Along with the waning of the moon itself, light and growth energy decrease. Due to the force of gravity during high tide, more moisture may appear in the soil, but the lunar color is less, which means that only roots, tubers and root crops will grow. This period is good for bulbs - tulips, hyacinths, crocuses and others. Transplant perennials, plant bushes and trees.
Important! For deep watering of trees and bushes, it is recommended to use days in which watermarks dominate. In the fourth phase, both gravity and moonlight are minimal . This is a period of rest for all cultures. At this time, they harvest, cut the trees, mow the lawns. The period is favorable for slowing plant growth.
Period of the rising moon
After the new moon in the first phase of growth, the moon gains strength. Gravity intensifies, it raises moisture from the soil to the roots, explosive growth of plants begins . This factor, together with an increase in the amount of light, creates a kind of balance, allowing you to evenly develop both roots and leaves. Lunar sowing calendar of a gardener for the spring season:
March
April
May
At the same time, all elevated cultures are growing well . Excellent growth is observed in annual herbs, vegetables, which form seeds without fruits. These are leafy greens: spinach, lettuce, along with cruciferous: cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, celery, cereals.
In the second phase, gravity decreases, but the plants are provided with the maximum amount of light . And this creates the conditions for good leaf growth. 2 days before the new moon, a favorable time for landing sets in. In this period, annuals grow. Among the crops that grow above the ground are legumes, nightshade, melons and zucchini.
Take into account the phases of the moon and do not forget to follow the basic agricultural measures. And then the plants will please you with a good harvest.
