| According to the moon, one is the best time to plant. Before fullmoon or after the full moon. |
| Farmer?s Almanacs are filled with advice about planting by phases of the moon. According to this advice on planting by moon cycles, a gardener should plant things in the following way: First quarter moon cycle (new moon to half full) ? Things that are leafy, like lettuce, cabbage and spinach, should be planted. Second quarter moon cycle (half full to full moon) - Things that have seeds inside, like tomatoes, beans and peppers. Third quarter moon cycle (full moon to half full) ? Thing that grow underground or are perennials, like potatoes, garlic and raspberries. Fourth quarter moon cycle (half full to new moon) ? Do not plant. Weed, mow and kill pests instead. There is nothing specific about planting trees in any of the moon phase charts. |
