Influence and characteristics of the Moon on July 28, 2022

At midday, the Moon is in the Leo ♌ ().

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.

The middle of the day falls on the 30 lunar day (±).

This is a better day for pruning trees and shrubs and improving the site. Avoid sowing, transplanting, loosening and dipping. Be very careful when using garden tools.

Current phase – NEW MOON at 17:55:25 ().

An extremely unfavourable day for working with plants. If possible, devote it to weeding, pest control and various preparatory tasks. A little watering and light tilling of the soil is acceptable.

Influence of the day of the week – Thursday (+).

Thursday is controlled by the giant Jupiter. This is the best day for weeding and transplanting plants. However, any other business will also go well. If you don't have a plan, trust your intuition to tell you what to do first today.
