Lunar sowing calendar for 2021 for gardeners and gardeners: table of plantings (sowing) by month, by zodiac sign

The influence of the phases of the Earth’s natural satellite on living organisms exists, which is confirmed by numerous experiments and observations. This fully applies to gardening plantings. Based on the influence of the phases of the Moon on the main processes occurring in the life of plants, a lunar sowing calendar for 2021 is compiled, which can be used as a guide when planning a cycle of annual garden care work.

The influence of lunar phases on plant growth and productivity

The lunar calendar consists of 28 days. It begins with the new moon - the moment when the Moon is not illuminated at all. As it orbits the Earth, the lunar disk becomes more and more illuminated by the Sun.This time is called the waxing Moon. After 14 days, the full moon phase begins. At this time, the intensity of illumination of the lunar disk is maximum. Then the intensity of the glow decreases, the moon begins to move more and more into the shadow of the Earth. This is the phase of the waning moon that ends with the new moon.

A graphic representation of the phases of the moon is shown in the figure below.

The waxing Moon has a noticeable effect on plants whose crops ripen in the aboveground part. These are fruit trees and shrubs, cereals, vegetables ripening on a branch. The waning Moon enhances the growth of the root part, at this time root crops develop better. The new moon and full moon are a state of rest; at this time there is no need to disturb the plants, therefore no agricultural work is carried out at this time.

Over the course of a full cycle, the Moon sequentially passes through all the zodiac constellations, which increases or decreases its influence on living organisms. According to the degree of influence on productivity, the constellations are divided as follows:

• Cancer (most fertile sign).
• Scorpio, Taurus, Pisces (good, fertile signs).
• Capricorn, Libra (less fertile, but quite productive signs).
• Virgo, Gemini, Sagittarius (less fertile signs).
• Leo, Aries (neutral signs).
• Aquarius (sterile sign).

The best result can be obtained if all factors are taken into account. Based on all the recommendations, the lunar sowing calendar for 2021 was compiled.
