The lunar calendar for planting garlic in 2024 will tell gardeners which days are conducive to obtaining an excellent harvest of the spicy vegetable. The entire planet, plants, mammals and simpler organisms are sensitive to changes in the position of the Earth’s satellite, the Moon. Popular experience suggests that timely planting according to the astrological calendar results in a better harvest of heads and strong teeth.
Calendar for planting garlic before winter in 2024
Winter crops are planted before the cold weather, starting in September. In areas with a warm climate, work is carried out in November. The lunar calendar will tell you when to plant garlic before winter according to the dates of the month.
Favorable days for garlic in September
From the beginning of autumn, seed cloves begin to be planted in those regions where frosts come early.There is a general rule for planting before winter - no later than 2 weeks before the onset of cold weather. But due to the fact that now the weather is difficult to predict accurately, in the middle zone they are guided by the following advice, taking into account at the same time how to plant garlic according to the lunar calendar in 2024:
- 2 plantings of the spicy vegetable are carried out - first the earlier one, from the 20th of September, then a month later;
- It is better to focus on the soil temperature - in order for the cloves not to germinate, it should drop to 12-14 °C.
After such calculations, the recommendations of astrologers are followed, according to which it is stated that a good time for planting garlic falls on September 21, 22, 25 and also on September 26.
Favorable days for garlic in October
In the second month of autumn, planting is duplicated to ensure the harvest of the spicy vegetable. The lunar calendar for planting garlic in October suggests favorable dates. Along with consulting the calendar, it is worth checking the long-term forecast of meteorologists. After all, an incorrectly chosen time relative to the condition of the soil and air temperature when planting garlic in October according to the calendar created by astrologers threatens, if not loss, then a significant reduction in the harvest:
- late planted teeth will not grow roots and will die in frosts;
- Premature placement of seed material in warm soil will lead to rapid development of the crop and freezing of delicate feathers.
Favorable days for garlic in November
If favorable days for planting garlic in October 2024 were missed due to warm weather, work will be carried out later. In the pre-winter period, winter garlic is constantly planted according to the calendar only in the south of the country. There are years when frost sets in by the end of December or even after the New Year holidays.This year, astrologers predict favorable dates for November: 18-20, as well as 28-30.
Planting calendar for garlic for spring
The spring variety is planted in all regions in the spring. With this crop, along with peas and onions, field work begins in the new annual cycle in accordance with the planting calendar. The spring variety is distinguished by smaller cloves and nuanced aromas. The heads of both types also have a different structure:
- 4-7 large cloves of the winter crop are grouped around the arrow of the peduncle located in the center;
- 10-16 smaller cloves of the spring type are also collected concentrically, but the peduncle is missing.
The culture is cold-resistant, so gardeners plant seed cloves early, before the soil dries out after processing. Work begins if the soil temperature rises to 5-6 °C.
Features of planting garlic in different regions (Moscow region, Leningrad region, Siberia, Ural)
Gardeners in different regions of the country need to use astrological tips, taking into account local weather conditions. For successful planting of a winter or spring species, choose the nearest date. At the same time, be sure to check the long-term forecast from meteorologists.
In the Moscow region, the approximate date for planting garlic is in the third ten days of September. In October it already gets significantly colder, and then, after 2-3 weeks, a steady frost sets in. If winter is late, the cloves are planted at the very end of September or the first days of the next month. Spring planting is often timed according to the signs of the folk calendar, which is based on changes in the development of trees and grasses.Most often, favorable dates fall in April, but planting in early May will ensure a good harvest with proper care.
The Northwestern region is not characterized by constant weather changes according to the calendar. Therefore, in the Leningrad region, winter garlic is planted almost throughout the month - from mid-September to October 15-20. Sometimes the spring species can be planted as early as the end of March and throughout April, until May 10.
The Siberian summer is short, which is why they begin to grow crops in the spring as soon as the soil warms up. Usually this is the first half of April, although they are planted in early May. Autumn work is coordinated with the lunar calendar and the upcoming frosts in the first and early second months of the off-season.
Geographically, the Ural regions are influenced by different weather conditions, which dictate requirements for gardeners:
- in the Southern Urals, the winter type of spice is planted on October 8-12;
- in the regions of the Middle Urals - from September 20 to October 6;
- in the Northern Urals it gets colder earlier, so pre-winter plantings here are coordinated with the recommendations of astrologers before September 5-20;
- in the spring, work on planting a spicy vegetable can begin at the end of April and continue throughout May, even covering the first days of June.
Favorable days for caring for garlic
According to astrologers, it is not enough to follow the lunar calendar only when planting winter garlic. An even greater effect is possible if gardeners also check all maintenance work according to the recommendations. All graphs are constructed not only in accordance with the movement of the night star, but also taking into account the passage of the Earth’s satellite in relation to the signs of the zodiac:
- planting is prohibited on the 2 days that precede and follow the date of the new moon and full moon;
- the date of passage of the Moon in Sagittarius is favorable for planting seed cloves of hot spice;
- It is favorable to water and fertilize in water signs when the Moon is in Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio;
- When the Moon is in water signs, the harvest is not harvested;
- the best time to dig up spice heads is the period of the Moon in Leo, Sagittarius and Aquarius;
- on the day of the new moon it is better not to dig up crops;
- Harvesting spring and winter types of spicy vegetables in the second and fourth lunar phases promotes good storage of heads.
Lunar calendar for garlic harvesting
To correctly determine the timing of harvesting spice crops, follow the recommendations:
- the leaves gradually turn yellow and become dry;
- on some remaining peduncle of a winter type, the aerial bulbs fall off.
Having noticed these signs of ripeness of the heads, they evaluate how well the lunar calendar’s advice on harvesting garlic applies to urgent work.
Winter
The winter variety ripens faster and is dug in mid-summer. According to the lunar calendar, the best time for collection is the second half of July, starting from the 18th, until the end of the month.
Yarovoy
The heads of the spring type are dug up two to three weeks later than the winter type. In the calendar for the current year, it is advised to start harvesting the spicy vegetable also in the second half of August - from the 16th.
Unfavorable days in 2024 for working in garlic beds
Calendars also indicate undesirable times for planting.
Conclusion
The lunar calendar for planting garlic in 2024 is just advice, but not a requirement for strict adherence. Often folk experience was based on the condition of the soil and air temperature.
