Planting by the Moon 12th - 18th May
May 11, 2008 by Angie
According to the book I am using ‘In Tune with the Moon’ this is what we are supposed to be doing this week. I will try and be organised and post every Sunday what the book suggests for the following week. My review of this book.
If you are planting by the moon for the first time have you had better results than normal or has it not made any difference? Please let us know by leaving comments below.
