On October 29 at 12:00 pm the Moon will be in the Waning Crescent phase in the zodiacal constellation of Leo ♌, according to the calendar it is the 23 lunar day. The percentage of lunar illumination on this day is about 45%. Moonrise will occur at 11:14 pm and sunset at 2:40 pm.
During this time it is advisable to take a break from most gardening activities related to planting and growing plants. The only exception is rejuvenation and shaping pruning. The crop harvested in Leo will keep well for a long time. The ripe fruit can be used to harvest its high quality seeds. It is also a good time to prepare the harvest by canning, drying, etc. It is worth avoiding watering and fertilising with organic and mineral fertilisers.
Extremely favourable time to work on above-ground parts of plants. Prune trees and shrubs, cut back strawberry bushes, thin out shoots, weed, apply fertiliser, carry out the planned fight against pests and diseases of garden plants. It is a good time to sow plants whose main crop is formed underground. But don't water too much yet.
The moon is waning, which means that the active energy is beginning to flow into the lower part of the plants. This is a good time to sow crops that produce underground. The high sensitivity of the roots at this time imposes certain restrictions on careless manipulation with them. Pest control, weeding, thinning out of seedlings, pruning of shoots and whiskers, fertilisation with organic substances can be carried out strictly under the roots. It is a good time to harvest, as the fruit will keep longer.
Friday is the day of Venus, which means that dacha women should take care of their beauty. It is better to let your favourite man do the physical work in the garden.
