Lunar calendar for indoor plants for 2020

The lunar calendar is an indispensable thing for all owners of indoor flowers. With it, you can not only avoid the many difficulties that arise when working with plants, but also find out when it is best to carry them out.

The influence of the moon on the landing and transplanting of indoor flowers

Caring for home plants can be difficult at times. In order for the flowers to grow actively, and their root system to develop, it is necessary to conduct regular transplantation, during which there is a high probability of causing mechanical injuries. Torn shoots, broken roots and stems, scratches on the surface of the cuticle are the causes of weakness, illness, and then death of the flower. You can make the transplant more comfortable if you follow the instructions on the lunar calendar.

The importance of the satellite for the events occurring on Earth has long been proven. The moon regulates not only the ebb and flow, but also the vital processes of organisms, including plant ones. This influence is due to the close proximity of the satellite to our planet. The sap flow in the stem is able to change its direction, depending on the position of the moon in the sky, which changes several times a month.

The satellite phases during which the transplant is favorable coincide with the dates indicated on the lunar calendar. These days, juices begin to move to the upper parts, ensuring the safety of young shoots and leaves. The root structure improves significantly: turgor is reduced. The transition of fluid into the aboveground shoots is accompanied by a slight dehydration of the root system, due to which the cells become flexible, and the probability of unforeseen branching failure decreases. This increases the speed of getting used to the new substrate and improves the further development of the flower.

Water enters the leaf plates during the period of the moon’s growth, and descends to the roots when the descending phase occurs, then transplantation is not carried out due to the risk of damage. But it is worth remembering that there are emergency cases. For example, when spores of fungal infections get into the soil, pests appear, due to which the plant begins to rapidly wither. Then it is impossible to tighten the transplant, otherwise the flower may die. If the pot is accidentally broken or the stem is broken, you must immediately place the plant in a new container. In such cases, the instructions of the lunar calendar can be neglected, because saving the flower is much more important.

In addition, there is no transplant during flowering, because during this period the shoots are most weakened, there is a possibility of serious diseases, the treatment of which will take a lot of time and effort.

Thus, checking the recommendations of the lunar calendar for 2020 before working in the greenhouse, on the site or at home, you can successfully complete all the necessary procedures, minimizing stress for indoor plants.

Lunar calendar of favorable and unfavorable days for planting, transplanting, watering, and other work with indoor plants for 2020 by month

Favorable, unfavorable and forbidden dates.

Moon phases

When the moon moves in orbit, it repeatedly changes its position relative to the Earth, due to which light is reflected from the satellite at various angles. Such a process is cyclical, and the state of illumination is called the phases of the moon, each of which is characterized by its own changes in plants.

Waxing Crescent

With this arrangement of the satellite, there is a movement of fluid along the stem from the roots to the aboveground half: leaves, shoots, flowers. At this time, there is active growth and development, the plant is gaining strength, giving numerous layering and new branches. It is recommended to perform almost all types of work: planting seeds, transplanting, propagating, especially by dividing the bush. Also, with the growing moon, you need to collect cuttings, as they successfully take root and take root in the new soil. Trimming is allowed, but not total, but only the upper part, where the healing of the sections will pass quickly and will not affect the condition of the whole flower. Feeding is better not to carry out, because the root system is weakened and excess substances will only harm it.

Full moon

The circulation of fluid in the stem is maximum, due to which the plant becomes almost invulnerable to external damage and is able to transfer various kinds of work. At this time, sowing of slowly germinating seeds is carried out, the probability of seedlings is significantly increased.

On the site, it is recommended to thin out densely growing flowers, as well as cut branches in all parts, including overgrown aerial roots.

Fertilizers containing mineral components, such as phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium, are absorbed by the flower much better, thanks to the active absorption of the root system of nutrients from the environment. Spraying with liquid fertilizers at this time will entail lush flowering and vegetation in the future. Transplantation and cuttings are also successful, as plant stress is significantly reduced.

Waning moon

With the onset of this phase, a slowdown in vital activity occurs, the movement of juice decreases, it descends back to the roots, where all the nutrients accumulate. It is recommended that rooting of pre-harvested cuttings and layering be done, to prepare the bulbs and tubers for forcing. Watering should be limited, since the root system is full of fluid and excess moisture can cause rotting and death of the flower. Pruning is not performed, except in cases of illness or infection by pests. However, especially overgrown branches can be removed to slow growth. Transplantation is carried out only in extreme cases. Spraying with special drugs to improve development and against diseases is permissible.

New moon

The aboveground part is preparing for a new cycle, because of which all vital juices are concentrated in the roots. The flower must be completely calm, refrain from transplanting, pruning or fertilizing with minerals. All work should be stopped, as they adversely affect the condition of the plant. During this period, it is recommended to take measures to combat insect pests and various diseases.

Moon in the signs of the zodiac.

When creating a lunar calendar, astrologers are based on the location of the satellite. Each phase corresponds to one zodiac sign in which the moon is located a certain period of time. All 12 characters have their own characteristics and affect the life processes in plants. They are divided into several groups:

1. Fertile. Planting during these phases of various crops contributes to their active growth, development and fruiting. This is especially true for cereals. This group includes: Cancer, Taurus, Libra, Scorpio and Pisces.
2. Infertile. When sowing seeds at this time, their germination capacity decreases, they become less fertile, and vulnerability to diseases increases. These are the signs: Sagittarius, Leo, Aries.
3. Moderately fertile. Seedlings and crops appear in a timely manner, but in much smaller quantities. Signs: Aquarius, Capricorn, Virgo, Gemini.

Individually, the signs of the zodiac also contribute or negatively affect the growth and development of plants.

1. Aries. Active development of the aerial parts, the emergence of new shoots and branches.
2. Calf. Suitable period for pruning and transplanting.
3. Twins. Work with plants is undesirable.
4. Crayfish. Low germination in seeds. It is recommended to increase the frequency of irrigation, fertilize.
5. A lion. Not suitable for sowing and transplanting any plants except beans. You can collect and dry fruits, root crops, medicinal herbs.
6. Virgo. Excellent adaptation and the rapid emergence of new shoots.
7. Libra. Increases the resistance of seedlings to infections and pests.
8. Scorpio. The application of mineral fertilizers will positively affect the condition of the flower.
9. Sagittarius. Plants planted during this period have a large stem and many seeds.
10. Capricorn. Flowers are frost-resistant, unpretentious and actively develop.
11. Aquarius, Leo. Landing and transplantation is not carried out.
12. Fish. Seeds quickly take root and germinate.
