Gardening by the Moon Weekend To-Do
An idea as old as agriculture, based both folklore and superstition but there are scientific ideas to back it up.
- Lunar Phase: 2nd Quarter begins on Wednesday, January 2
- Saturday-Monday: Moon in the sign of Aquarius-
- Happy New Year, enjoy family and friends
Later in the Week
- Monday/Wednesday: Moon in the sign of Pisces - Plant seasonal color
- Other than cyclamen, there isn’t a lot of color available. The selection improves as we get towards the end of the month.
Other Things To-do
- The winter pruning season has arrived. Unless, it’s too muddy, it’s a good weekend to get started. Also, you can spread the activity out over several weekends, so there isn’t a big hurry to get it done now.
