With moon gardening, you don't dig up the radishes in the light of the full moon - you plan gardening according to the phases of the moon. That's exactly behind it.


With moon gardening, you don't dig up the radishes in the light of the full moon - you plan gardening according to the phases of the moon.

That's exactly behind it.

The moon has always been

said

to have various effects on us humans

.

While some describe this as utter nonsense, some connoisseurs adhere adamantly that there is something to it.

It can at least be stated that the moon actually has an impact on the earth -

see for example ebb and flow

.

But does this also apply to the plants in your own garden * or balcony?

Proponents of moon gardening swear by the fact that the different phases of the moon influence the

growth of plants

.

We get to the bottom of the matter and answer the most important questions.

Moon gardening: Gardening after the moon phase - that's behind the trend

In contrast to the causal effects of the moon on ebb and flow, lunar gardening is not based on scientific facts.

However, it has already been recognized several times that the

different phases of the moon can affect plants

.

According to

myHOMEBOOK.de,

the

trained gardener

Marianne Breschke

, author of the book "Moon garden - gardening with the moon on the balcony, terrace and in the garden" recommends newcomers to

moon gardening

to use the moon phases as follows:

  • New moon

    : At the new moon, no moon can be seen in the night sky - and therefore its power is weakest.

    So this phase of the moon is a good way to relax.

    At most, it is advisable to cut off broken shoots and to care for plants that have been infected by pests.

  • Waxing moon

    : This phase promotes plant growth above ground, according to Breschke.

    The moon phase is therefore suitable for sowing plants or grass.

    Plants that bear flowers or fruit will also benefit if they are planted during this phase of the moon.

  • Full moon

    : Unsurprisingly, according to the moon nursery, the power of the moon is strongest during a full moon, and therefore the plants are most receptive.

    The perfect time to fertilize - but under no circumstances should you prune or prune during this phase of the moon!

  • Waning moon

    : If the moon becomes smaller, its power does not

    decrease

    , but flows into the ground.

    In this phase of the moon, hobby gardeners should therefore devote themselves to root plants such as bulb and bulbous plants.

    But the soil itself is also particularly receptive, which is why the waning moon is also ideal for watering and fertilizing.

  • Rising moon

    :

    gardeners swear by this phase: It is ideal for harvesting fruits above ground.

    They stayed fresh and crisp longer because a rising moon emits a lot of energy.

    This also ensures that it could be worthwhile to cut plants now, as they would grow back strongly after this phase.

  • Descending moon

    : This phase is very similar to that of the waning moon and is therefore suitable for sowing and propagating cuttings.

    Root vegetables should also be harvested during this time.

Moon gardening: not just in the garden

According to the moon nursery, the power of the moon is of course not limited to the garden and the plants there - it has the

same

effect on

balcony and terrace plants

.

The moon gardening is therefore also suitable for hobby gardeners.
