| | | Gardening by the Moon Hi
Does anyone attend to their gardens in accordance to the cycle of the moon? I have been looking a little at this and planting on a full moon is supposedly meant to be most beneficial as water rises at it's highest point in the earth, at these times?!? Makes sense!
So I'm wandering if there was any kind wabber who may know more about this and wouldn't mind putting up the dates of the full moons for the year/ or point me out to more information!
Your help will be kindly appreciated, thank you- Jez

Thanks once again Jimmer!  | If it recommends you plant on the full moon then why plant before. Don't this defeat the object |

Maybe, I'll try both one plant a couple of days before and one on the day and see if theres any difference in the growth!

But heard it was a beneficial way to garden..It a good idea to do an experiment and compare the differences. |
