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.
If you are interested in trying this it really is a good idea to get the book, I only list the basic favourable days. Within those days there are three star, two star, one star periods for cultivation as well as suggested best times for harvesting, pruning and every other aspect of growing.
For best results plant fruit trees and bushes when the moon is descending, also waxing and the tide is receding.
Monday 8th and Tuesday 9th up to 5am sow and cultivate leaves – basil, brussels sprout, cabbage, kohlrabi, sorrel, celery, chervil, chinese cabbage, cress, dandelion, curly endive, fennel, purslane, lamb’s lettuce, leek, lettuce, rocket, spinach, cardoon, parsley, swiss chard.
